Isla Fisher pokes fun at Prince Harry’s ‘broken necklace’ story

Isla Fisher has poked fun at Prince Harry’s claims his brother William broke his necklace after the pair fought over Meghan Markle.

The Australian actress, 46, shared a photo to Instagram looking thoughtful while modelling a top from New York boutique La Ligne.

‘Me wondering what Harry’s necklace looked like before it got broken?’ she wrote in the caption, referencing the Duke of Sussex‘s claims his brother snapped his jewellery off in a fight.

Harry described a stand-up row that ended with the Prince of Wales grabbing him by the collar and throwing him to the floor, shattering a dog bowl with his back in his new memoir Spare.

 William then allegedly declared: ‘I didn’t attack you, Harold’.

The furious row allegedly broke out in the kitchen of his London home, Nottingham Cottage, in the grounds of Kensington Palace in 2019 – shortly before Megxit.

William is said to have branded Meghan ‘difficult’, ‘rude’ and ‘abrasive’ and insisted he was trying to help his younger brother during a meeting about ‘the whole rolling catastrophe’ of their failing relationship and Harry’s rows with the Press.

Harry accused his brother of ‘parroting the Press narrative’ about his American wife before a screaming match ensued, ending in a physical altercation, the book claims. He says he gave the heir to the throne a glass of water and said: ‘Willy, I can’t speak to you when you’re like this’.

Describing what he claims happened next, and insisting he was scared, the former soldier said: ‘He set down the water, called me another name, then came at me. It all happened so fast. So very fast. He grabbed me by the collar, ripping my necklace, and he knocked me to the floor. I landed on the dog’s bowl, which cracked under my back, the pieces cutting into me. I lay there for a moment, dazed, then got to my feet and told him to get out’.

 Harry has been pictured wearing the same necklace over the past decade, a silver pendant on a leather string, with previous reports stating it was a gift from ex-girlfriend Chelsy Davy.

Harry and Chelsy – who met while attending schools in London – dated on-and-off for six years from 2004 after Harry travelled to Zimbabwe during his gap year.

The duke is believed to have started wearing the necklace at the end of that year, and was pictured at a rugby match that November with the leather pendant round his neck.

He was seen wearing the necklace throughout their relationship, and continued to wear the pendant after the split in 2011.

Prince Harry’s Spare has become ‘the fastest selling non-fiction book ever’ according to publisher Transworld Penguin Random House

Chelsy said she did not want to become a princess because she wanted a career and a private life.

 Harry’s book – which was accidentally released early in Spain – finally went on sale internationally on Wednesday, with his publisher claiming it’s the fastest selling non-fiction book of all time.

Larry Finlay, managing director of Transworld Penguin Random House, said: ‘We always knew this book would fly but it is exceeding even our most bullish expectations.

‘As far as we know, the only books to have sold more in their first day are those starring the other Harry (Potter).’

As the duke continued a run of high profile promotional interviews, he said he ‘would like nothing more’ than for his children to have relationships with the royal family.

His remarks about his son and daughter came despite the criticism he has levelled at his brother William, father Charles and stepmother Camilla.

In his first print interview about his autobiography, he told US magazine People that Archie, three, and 19-month-old Lili did have a connection with some of the Windsors, whom he did not name, saying this brought him ‘great joy’.

He also described his late mother, Diana, Princess of Wales, as his ‘guardian angel’ and said she is with him ‘all the time’.

A record 400,000 hardback, e-book and audio format copies have reportedly been sold within its first day
