Jack Whitehall said he was "banned" from seeing Prince Harry after he called him "Ginger Nuts".
The comedian, 33, said his cheeky comment at the 2015 Royal Variety Show meant that he was blacklisted from seeing his old friend.
Jack let fans into this secret as part of his How To Survive The Summer Holidays tour with his parents Hilary, 59 and dad Michael, 81.
Mocking the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Michael said: “Jack, I read a book recently and it changed my life. I put this book down and I thought I must become a writer myself. This book is called The Bench and it’s written by Meghan Markle.”
Michael continued: "That is your friend Harry. Except you are not allowed to see him anymore. You have banned... been ostracised from the Sussexes.”
Grinning, Jack replied: “I think I have been banned because I called him 'Ginger Nuts’ at the Royal Variety”.
Jack hosted the show a year before Harry started dating Meghan, and he joked that he could be the royal's "wingman".
Despite Jack being pals with the royal, he didn't get an invite to his wedding in 2018.
It's not just Harry that Jack has rubbed up the wrong way, he upset Prince William over his "inappropriate" comment about Kate Middleton at the same show.
Speaking of Kate, he said: “We were actually at school together. This is true. We were at the same school.
“I was a bit younger than you, but this is the first time I’ve seen you since school, so hello.”
Jack upped the anti and then admitted that Kate was his “first ever crush”.
He said: “I don’t know whether it’s appropriate given the circumstances, but you were probably my first ever crush.
“Okay, definitely inappropriate. Your Highness is giving me a very sharp look.”
But then Jack revealed that after the show William pulled him aside about his comments.
Speaking on The Jonathan Ross Show he said: "William came over and he was very funny.
“Because he was very nice, but very passive-aggressive, ‘Oh so you were flirting with my missus? Oh no, no, that was very, very funny’.

“That’s him going, ‘I could have you beheaded.’”
However, despite branding Kate as “the one that got away”, Jack admitted that he never had a chance with the Duchess.
He said: “She was a lot older than me. She was in sixth form ‒ it was never going to happen, I was in a head brace!”
