Prince Harry Explodes with Legal Fury Over Meghan Markle Insults and Prince Andrew Fight Claims

Prince Harry is not staying silent anymore. The Duke of Sussex has officially taken legal action after explosive claims surfaced accusing Prince Andrew of insulting Meghan Markle and allegedly fighting with Harry himself.
According to a new report by Newsweek, Prince Harry’s legal team has issued a formal legal notice in response to what they describe as “gross inaccuracies” and “defamatory remarks” made in a recent publication.
The shocking claims come from an excerpt in royal biographer Andrew Lownie’s upcoming book titled The Rise and Fall of the House of York. The biography includes scandalous allegations about a rift between Prince Harry and Prince Andrew that allegedly turned physical.
In one outrageous claim, Prince Andrew reportedly told Harry that he was “bonkers” for not fully researching Meghan Markle’s past before marrying her. He is also alleged to have said Meghan was “too old” and warned that marrying her would be Harry’s “biggest mistake ever.”
But the most jaw dropping claim was that Harry once physically assaulted Prince Andrew in 2013 after being called a coward. The book alleges that Harry punched Andrew after learning he had been speaking about him behind his back.
Prince Harry’s representatives have firmly denied all of these reports. In a statement given to the New York Post, his spokesperson made it clear that no physical altercation ever occurred between Harry and his uncle.
“I can confirm Prince Harry and Prince Andrew have never had a physical fight,” the statement said. “Nor did Prince Andrew ever make the comments he is alleged to have made about the Duchess of Sussex to Prince Harry.”
Now, Harry’s legal team is taking the matter further. Speaking to Newsweek, a spokesperson confirmed that lawyers have been brought in and a legal letter has been sent to address the defamatory nature of the story.
“Such are the gross inaccuracies, damaging and defamatory remarks made in the article, that legal action was necessary,” Harry’s team stated. “I can confirm a legal letter from Prince Harry’s counsel has been sent.”
The move marks yet another chapter in Harry’s ongoing battle against the media and false narratives involving Meghan Markle. Since stepping back from royal duties in 2020, the couple has frequently taken legal routes to protect their image and counter misinformation.

This latest incident underscores how protective Harry remains over his wife. Any suggestion that a senior royal like Prince Andrew insulted Meghan would not only be scandalous but could ignite new tensions within the royal family.
The biography by Andrew Lownie has not yet been released, but early excerpts have already caused a stir. Lownie has built a reputation for digging deep into royal affairs and claims to have uncovered private conversations and events never before revealed.
However, the Duke of Sussex is determined not to let sensational claims go unchallenged. His legal team is sending a message that misinformation and character attacks will not be tolerated.
It is not the first time Prince Harry has taken legal steps to defend himself or Meghan. The couple has previously won lawsuits against several media outlets in both the UK and US for publishing false or invasive content.
This time, however, the accusations strike at the heart of royal family dynamics. Any hint of a physical altercation between Harry and Andrew, or derogatory comments about Meghan from within the family, would deepen the public divide already surrounding the House of Windsor.
For now, the palace has remained silent on the claims and Harry’s legal response. But the controversy is already dominating headlines and sparking fierce debate among royal watchers.
Whether the book’s author chooses to revise or retract the claims remains to be seen. But Prince Harry’s swift legal action shows he is ready to fight not just for his reputation, but for the woman he has vowed to protect.
