'The Crown' Actor Explains Why Friendship With Prince Harry Ended: 'I Said Too Much'
HuffPost
Actor Dominic West recalled how his words destroyed the bond with his royal pal “over 10 years ago."
“The Crown” star Dominic West opened up about how he burned bridges with Prince Harry after going overboard with his words in an interview years ago.
In a new episode of “Sunday Morning” on Times Radio, the actor, who was apparently close friends with the Duke of Sussex, hinted that the two haven’t been on speaking terms since the incident.
“We sort of [lost touch because] I said too much in a press conference, and so, we didn’t speak after that,” West, 54, explained during the episode that aired on Sunday, Us Weekly reports.
After the show’s host Kate McCann grilled him for more tea about the severed bond, the “Wire” star discussed a trip the two went on through Antarctica with the charity Walking With The Wounded in 2013 to support wounded veterans. West later talked about the trip during a 2014 press conference.
“I think I was asked what we did. [And] what we did to celebrate when we got there and [I] probably said too much,” West shared.
