Prince Harry and Meghan Markle

Word on the street was that George and Amal Clooney had denied knowing Prince Harry and Meghan Markle while attending their royal wedding back in 2018.

However, the buzz has now been quashed as a representative of the power couple stepped forth to set the record straight about the story penned by UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s sister, Rachel.



A spokesperson for the two denied that the couple ever made the claim against the Sussex pair.

As per Boris Johnson’s sister Rachel Johnson, the pair had been telling the guests at the wedding that they were anything but best buds with the bride and groom.



Johnson wrote for AirMail: "There’s a story doing the rounds that while Carolyn Bartholomew, Diana’s former flatmate, was waiting for the wedding service to start, she turned to the couple alongside her and asked how they knew Harry or Meghan.”

"'We don’t', the Clooneys answered brightly,” she went on to say.

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry have been receiving a lot of negative press ever since they moved to the U.S. back in March. Not only have the couple been criticized for the topics they discuss in their speeches, critics have also accused Meghan and Harry of pulling PR stunts. Recently, the Sussexes allegedly made a PR move that was dubbed “phoney” from some onlookers.



Recently, Meghan and Harry also received PR stunt accusations for something else they did.

On Nov. 8, the royal family laid wreaths for fallen soldiers of World War I, known as Remembrance Day in the U.K. and other Commonwealth nations. Harry, who is still in the U.S., allegedly wanted a wreath laid on his behalf, but his request was denied by the palace.



Meghan and Harry subsequently visited Los Angeles National Cemetery to have their own memorial service. However, their decision was met with criticism. Some onlookers even accused Meghan and Harry of trying to take attention away from Queen Elizabeth and the rest of the royal family.

“Working for The Sun, all of our focus that day was on the Queen, on Kate, on Charles, on William, on Camilla,” journalist Dan Wootton said, according to Express. “These pictures [that Meghan and Harry took] dropped at 8pm when all the papers are deciding what their front pages are. The direct result is that it pushed off, or reduced the photos of Queen and William.”





Wootton continued, “I know that is what Meghan and Harry like to do. They like to time these stunts. Why could they not go in private? There was absolutely no need to release these photos and overshadow the Queen on her big day.”

Meanwhile, Express shared that royal expert Angela Levin called Meghan and Harry’s event “incredibly phoney.”

She said, “To get a fashion photographer, it looked like a fashion shoot to me, and to go along with very, very high heels and to look very gloomy and sad… It looked as if you were using the concrete tombstones as props to create an impression.”
