Prince Harry discusses relationship with Caroline Flack for first time and shares sad reason they ended romance

Prince Harry has opened up about his relationship with the late Caroline Flack for the first time. The Duke of Sussex has discussed their brief romance in his new memoir, Spare, which is due to be released next week. In it, he defends the former Love Island host after she was called his "bit of rough".

It was previously rumorued that the pair struck up a blossoming romance with Caroline, who died after taking her own life in 2020, after they met at a restaurant in 2009 with mutual friends. He wrote in his new book, titled Spare: "She wasn’t taken aback that I didn’t recognise her. She didn’t have a big ego."

He also went on to share the sad reason their short-live relationship came to an end in which he blamed a picture leaking of the pair into the press. "Very soon after they papped me and Flack, those photos set off a frenzy", he writes. "Within hours a mob was camped outside Flack’s parents’ house, and all her friends’ houses, and her grandparents’ house."
