Katy Perry could be one of the reasons why the prince Harry chose to avoid the musical extravaganza that will take place the day after King Charles III’s coronation at Windsor Castle, as the American Idol judge and the Duke of Sussex have an unlikely history together.
It has been confirmed that Harry would be inside Westminster Abbey to watch the coronation of King Charles and Queen Camilla, but he has reportedly told his father that he won’t be staying for the weekend of celebrations.
Harry would return for the King’s big day, but it will only be a fleeting visit. The Duke will also miss the Coronation concert, where Perry, Andrea Bocelli, Sir Bryn Terfel, Take That and Freya Ridings will wow the audience with their performances.
Perry made some flirtatious comments towards Harry in 2012 when Graham Norton asked if the duke had personally added Katy to the Queen’s Jubilee guest list and Katy replied: “Prince Harry? He’s a hot redhead, isn’t he?” “.
When comedian Ross Noble reminded Katy of Harry’s love for the ladies, she added: “I’d be open to that.”
When Cheryl, another guest at the time, opened up about rumors that she and Harry had been talking, Katy yelled, “Get loose, man!”
Following Meghan and Harry’s royal wedding in 2018, the singer also made a critical comment about the former Suits actress’s wedding dress, which has led Meghan to hold a “grudge” against the Teenage Dream hitmaker. .
During a US promotional tour for American Idol, Katy said Meghan “would have done one more fitting” for her wedding dress.
In relation to the comment, a source told the Daily Star: “Meghan is very aware of a comment Katy Perry made in 2018 about her wedding dress and has been known to hold a grudge. While the comment was not intended to be hurtful, Meghan felt under siege at the time and was overwhelmed by arguments with staff, the Duchess of Cambridge and Thomas Markle.”
