Prince Harry has been married to Duchess Meghan since 2018. What has suffered is the friendship with Usain Bolt.
Prince Harry (37) and Duchess Meghan (40) have been a couple since 2016, and the two married two years later. Apparently Harry has given up a close friendship in the course of the relationship: Usain Bolt (35), eight-time Olympic sprint champion and former friend of the prince, explained in an interview with “The Sun”that the two no longer had contact.
The friendship between the two went so far that Bolt wanted to organize Harry’s bachelorette party. However, nothing came of it, as the athlete confirmed. “I haven’t spoken to him in a while, but I’d still like to keep in touch,” said Bolt. With Duchess Meghan, Harry “took it very seriously very quickly”. “It is now about married life and that is a good thing,” said the 35-year-old. The prince “left his former life behind”.
Usain Bolt had planned this for Harry’s bachelorette party
As “The Sun” reports, Bolt wanted to plan “three nights” for Harry’s bachelorette party. “One in Kingston, one in Vegas and one in London,” Bolt said four years ago. “I’ll call Meghan personally and take responsibility for getting him home safely afterwards.”
In the meantime, both the former sprinter and Prince Harry have become fathers. Usain Bolt and his long-time partner Kasi Bennett had a daughter Olympia in 2020, and the twins Saint Leo and Thunder followed in June 2021. Harry and Meghan became parents of their son Archie in May 2019, daughter Lilibet was also born in June of this year.
