According to an article published in The Sun, the Duke was reportedly contacted by Academy Award-winning actress Liza Minnelli, who apparently reached out to help Harry “find his feet”.
But on Sunday, the Cabaret star took to her Facebook page, where she seemingly set the record straight about any so-called friendship between herself and the former royal couple.
“While I wish them well, I have never met Prince Harry and Meghan. Any statement to the contrary is a complete fabrication,” Liza captioned a link to the original article.
According to the claims, Liza was supposed to have reached out to Harry to offer him some words of wisdom, when it comes to navigating the perils of Hollywood.
“Harry has found the transition from the UK to LA very challenging at times, and lockdown hasn’t helped him establish himself yet,” a source sensationally claimed to the publication.
The insider added: “Liza reached out because she was close to Diana and offered her support.
“She’s been dealing with paparazzi for years, and knows the fame game.”
Despite refuting the claims, Liza is said to have become friends with Harry’s mother, the late princess Diana, and the pair would often catch up at glitzy and lavish events.
An article published in The Telegraph, refers to when Liza once spoke of an “instinct” to protect Diana.
“I was lucky enough to count Princess Di as a friend. I was first introduced to her when she came backstage after a concert I did in London,” the Oscar-winning star began.
“Then we’d bump into each other at premieres or events where she’d be the guest of honour.
“We’d fall into conversation then we’d meet for tea… My instinct was to protect her. We talked about everything under the sun. She loved music,” she added.
Liza’s comments come after it was speculated that Meghan’s mum, Doria Ragland, might be moving into Harry and Meghan’s lavish Beverly Hills mansion.
