Elizabeth Hurley Addresses Longtime Rumor She Once Slept With Prince Harry

Elizabeth Hurley is finally sharing the truth about the longstanding rumors that she is the woman who took Prince Harry's virginity.
Ever since the Duke of Sussex, 39, described the woman he first slept with as someone who was both older than him and English, theories immediately began popping up that Hurley, 58, could have been the mystery woman.
But according to the Austin Powers actress, there is absolutely no truth to the rumors. In fact, she says she's never even met Harry.
Elizabeth made an appearance on the Wednesday, April 4 episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, where she declared once and for all that she was not the woman Harry described in his 2023 memoir, Spare.
"That was ludicrous!" she said of all the speculation, adding, "He said, 'She was English. She was older than me. It was in Gloucestershire.' And they were like, 'Ah, it's Elizabeth.'"
"It was absurd. It was ridiculous," she continued.
"It was like saying, 'He’s great-looking. He's American.' Oh, it’s Andy Cohen,'" she further quipped, while noting that she has never actually met Harry.

But other than the name of the mystery woman, Harry clearly wasn't shy to share the details of the first time he had sex, which he described as an "inglorious episode."
"She liked horses, quite a lot, and treated me not unlike a young stallion. Quick ride, after which she’d smacked my rump and sent me off to graze," he wrote in his pages. "Among the many things about it that were wrong: It happened in a grassy field behind a busy pub. Obviously, someone had seen us."
But Harry has clearly come along way from his wild years, as he has since settled down with wife and former Suits actress Meghan Markle, with whom he shares two children: Archie, 4, and Lilibet, 2.
