Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have hit the headlines again today (January 5), after a leaked excerpt from his upcoming memoir Spare was published.

Meghan and Harry: What happened with Prince William?

It’s alleged that the incident took place at Nottingham Cottage in 2019.

In excerpts serialised in The Guardian, Prince Harry alleges that William “came at him” following a row about Meghan.

It’s claimed William branded Meghan “difficult”, “rude” and “abrasive”.

Harry, in turn, alleges he called it a “parroting of the press narrative” about his wife.

The Duke of Sussex then detailed the alleged “attack”.

He claimed it “all happened so fast” and alleged William “grabbed me by the collar and knocked me to the floor”.

It’s claimed he “landed on the dog bowl”, which “cracked” under his back.

Afterwards, Harry said he got to his feet and “told him to get out”.

Harry claimed that William left and then returned “looking regretful and apologised”.

What did Harry tell Meghan about the ‘attack’?

Harry then claimed that as William left again, he “turned and called back: ‘You don’t need to tell Meg about this.'”

She was terribly sad.

Harry said: “‘You mean that you attacked me?’ ‘I didn’t attack you, Harold.'”

The Duke of Sussex said that he didn’t immediately tell his wife, but she did later notice “scrapes and bruises” on his back.

He then told her of the alleged “attack”.

Harry claimed Meghan “wasn’t that surprised, and wasn’t all that angry”.

However, he did add: “She was terribly sad.”
