George Clooney’s verdict on Prince Harry and Meghan before ‘ditching’ Sussexes as friends
The Boys in the Boat director George Clooney and his wife Amal have reportedly grown apart from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, five years after the Sussexes invited the Hollywood couple to their Royal Wedding.
George Clooney’s verdict on Prince Harry and Meghan before ‘ditching’ Sussexes as friends
George Clooney hit the headlines last summer as rumours swirled that his high-profile friendship with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex had fizzled out. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s 2018 wedding unveiled the union of two power couples, as George and his wife Amal Clooney arrived to celebrate the Sussexes’ nuptials in St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle.
However, just a few years later, the Ocean’s Eleven actor, 62, was at the centre of reports that he had “ditched” the Royal couple as “bosom buddies”, according to sources. As George steps behind the camera as director for his latest film The Boys in the Boat, Express.co.uk has taken a look back at the Hollywood icon’s friendship with Meghan, 42, and Harry, 39, before things seemingly cooled down.
The world first became aware of the connection between George and former Suits actress Meghan when he and wife Amal, 45, received an invite to the wedding of the century. After watching Meghan and Harry tie the knot, the Clooneys attended the newlyweds’ private party at Frogmore House.
Despite appearances, it was subsequently reported that the Clooneys had claimed to a fellow wedding guest that they “didn’t know” Meghan and Harry. Boris Johnson’s sister Rachel wrote for AirMail at the time: “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.” In spite of the baffling remark, Meghan reportedly went on to grow closer to human rights barrister Amal after the wedding. “Meghan and Amal have known each other for a while [and share] many interests,” a source claimed to People Magazine in 2018.

“Amal has been helping Meghan settle into London life. It was a very natural friendship from day one.”
Later that same year, it was also claimed that Harry and Meghan flew to Italy’s Lake Como for a vacation, where they visited George and Amal at their lavish holiday home.
Omid Scobie also claimed that Harry and George had bonded over their mutual passion for motorbikes.
“George and Harry have a shared passion for motorcycles and checked out George’s collection and they also played basketball together,” the royal journalist revealed.
