LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Elizabeth Hurley has responded to the rumor that she is the "beautiful older woman" to whom Prince Harry allegedly lost his virginity. A question about this rumor was asked to the 57-year-old actress during an interview with Saturday Times magazine
According to the outlet, one of "the most extraordinary disclosures in Prince Harry’s forthcoming memoir, Spare, is that as a teenager he lost his virginity to a beautiful older woman in the countryside". When asked about whether the rumor that it was her is true, Liz replied, "Not me. Not guilty. Ha!", before going on to add "No. Not me. Absolutely not."

Prince Harry's 416-page autobiography, Spare, will be published on January 10 2023. Senior royals are reportedly preparing for the publishing and the fallout that may follow. "Put it this way, it's not going to make for a relaxing family Christmas," a source said as per Daily Mail.
Prince Harry's book allegedly had to be submitted to publishers more than once before it was accepted, raising concerns that it was "sexed up" with information about the Royal Family. A source told The Sun, "The book has been back and forth between Harry and [ghost writer] JR Moehringer and the publishers a few times. They wanted more than was in the first draft, and then Harry wanted to refine things after the Queen passed away."
"But there has been extra toing and froing that people don't know about. This is because the publishers wanted more areas covered and more detail on some things that were already included. There is a real concern that that means Harry has had to sex up the book and include revelations that even he might not even be that comfortable with."
The book's publishers, Penguin Random House, claim the book was written with "raw, unflinching honesty," and it is anticipated to include shocking new information about Harry's early life and his falling out with "The Firm" after meeting Meghan.
A source added, "The book is much worse than people think." Biographer Tom Bower told The Sun: "This book is really make or break. I imagine that King Charles has been warned that any retaliation won't be pretty. All that King Charles can really do is to withhold the titles for his grandchildren Archie and Lilibet. Ultimately, I suppose, he could take away Harry and Meghan's titles as well, but that's pretty drastic. I don't know what else he can do. If it is as bad as I think it is, then Harry and Meghan have gone fully rogue." The best course of action for the royal family in this situation, he continued, would be to "break ties" with the couple.
According to a second source close to Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex wrote his contentious biography for himself rather than as a "takedown of his family," as some have claimed. Those who are familiar with the manuscript have called it a "beautiful read" that people from all walks of life will be able to relate to. It's reported that for Prince Harry, talking about his past hardships was cathartic. The source said, "You can't always live your life trying to make your family or your siblings happy. You have to choose your own happiness."
