Is Prince Harry somehow involved in the Diddy story? Stephen Colbert not quite apologizes to Kate Middleton
Lest you think we will ever run out of things to talk about, all you have to do is wait five minutes and there will be a new shiny object. Sure the King has cancer, and so does Kate, and the brothers are fighting, and Meghan has a new lifestyle brand and Camilla has gone from evil stepmother to the Queen holding things together…all that’s fine…but what if i told you Prince Harry is getting dragged into the Sean Diddy Combs scandal.The Daily beast reports Prince Harry’s party days with Sean “Diddy” Combs could be coming back to haunt him after it emerged that he was named in court documents filed against the rapper, who is facing a litany of shocking sexual assault allegations in a case being brought by one of his former producers Rodney Jones.The New York Post added: According to the docs, Jones claimed that Harry and other A-listers’ “affiliation” added to Diddy’s “legitimacy.”Federal law enforcement recently raided two properties belonging to rapper and producer Sean "Diddy" Combs as part of an ongoing investigation into sex trafficking allegations. While Prince Harry is not accused of any wrongdoing, he has been named in a lawsuit filed by Gina Huynh, also known as Virginia Jones, as a friend of Combs.In the suit, Jones, who alleges that she was groped, harassed, and threatened by Combs, claims that Diddy's co-defendants were rewarded for participating in and facilitating his sex trafficking venture by gaining "affiliation and access to Mr Combs' popularity." The lawsuit also mentions that "affiliation with, and or sponsorship of Mr Combs' sex-trafficking parties garnered legitimacy and access to celebrities such as famous athletes, political figures, artists, musicians and international dignitaries like British royal, Prince Harry."Although it may be considered unfair for Prince Harry to be singled out by name when he has not been accused of any wrongdoing, this incident highlights the need for members of the British royal family to be extremely cautious about their associations and the conditions under which they interact with others.Diddy's seemingly innocuous remark in 2012 about wanting to catch up with Prince Harry and have him take him to some "wild Mayfair clubs" may provide some insight into why Harry has been named in the lawsuit.(new story)Despite reports that Harry and Meghan found out about Kate’s cancer through the mainstream media, Royal author and expert Tom Quinn tells the Mirror that’s not true. According to Quinn, "Harry and Meghan were told about Kate's cancer diagnosis, but only a very short time before the television announcement. "Telling them was a huge problem for the palace, because if they’d left Meghan and Harry in the dark until Kate's TV broadcast there was a real risk the couple would have complained that once again the royal family was treating them badly."Quinn also told the Mirror that any potential meeting between Prince William and Prince Harry during the latter's return to the UK in May is likely to be kept "very brief," especially in light of Princess Kate's recent cancer diagnosis.Quinn explained, "Given Kate's cancer diagnosis, Harry will certainly make efforts to see his brother and Kate when he returns to the UK in May – if it happens at all it's to be a very brief carefully choreographed meeting and organised to last a short time so that the brothers can avoid any difficult conversations."The author also noted that Harry is aware of the potential implications of visiting the UK without meeting his brother and sister-in-law, adding, "At the same time Harry knows how it will look if he comes back to the UK and doesn't see his brother and Kate. It's going to be a very awkward time."A source tells The Mirror: "Prince Harry will do all he can to 'win' back his brother Prince William on his trip to England - but he knows it will take time. He will do all he...
