Four words are reportedly threatening to unravel one of the royal family's oldest friendships. According to one source, Elton John has told Prince Harry, 'I am not an ATM,' after the Duke of Sussex allegedly went looking for financial help from one of his late mother's closest celebrity friends.
The claim lands at an already fraught moment. Harry has just lost a costly privacy battle against Associated Newspapers Limited, publisher of the Daily Mail, and reports suggest he is now short of cash on two fronts at once: his legal bill and his flagship charity event. The claimants, including Harry and John, could collectively face legal costs of up to £38 million ($51 million), with the publisher separately seeking to recover more than $67 million in total costs across all parties involved in the case.
