In a surprising turn of events, Prince Harry and actor Dominic West's longtime friendship has encountered a setback, stemming from West's candid disclosures about a wild partying episode back in 2013. The incident, which took place during a press conference, involved excessive drinking, unconventional celebratory antics, and a prosthetic leg. The revelations caused a rift between the two, leading to a loss of communication that lasted over a decade.

At the press conference, West, known for his role as King Charles III in Netflix's "The Crown," unabashedly shared details of the raucous gathering. He mentioned that most attendees, including Prince Harry, indulged in a two-day bender with Icelandic truck drivers, who had brought potent home brew. West further revealed that they engaged in unconventional drinking rituals, including consuming liqueur and champagne from the favorite prosthetic leg of a double amputee soldier named Duncan Slater.

While West praised Prince Harry as a "really cool guy" and emphasized his camaraderie within the group, he also confessed that the royal shared some jaw-droppingly crude jokes, which West found surprisingly shocking. Describing Prince Harry's involvement, West explained that he often displayed his leadership qualities by arriving at meeting points ahead of his men, and even constructed lavishly embellished latrines, complete with battlements and loo roll holders.

The press conference had a lasting impact not only on the relationship between Prince Harry and West but also on their professional spheres. West disclosed that they lost touch after his candid remarks, which garnered more attention than anticipated. The actor acknowledged that he regretted divulging too much information and mentioned that their communication ceased from that point onward.

Interestingly, West's 15-year-old son, Senan West, had previously appeared in "The Crown" as a young Prince William. However, the actor decided against allowing his son to reprise the role for the sixth season due to the sensitive nature of portraying Princess Diana's tragic death at Balmoral Castle. Although Senan had portrayed Prince William exceptionally well in the previous season, West admitted that he personally balked at the idea of his son participating in such emotionally charged scenes.

As for Prince Harry, who has expressed a preference for "The Crown's" portrayal of his family compared to media narratives, he reportedly refused to watch the most recent season, which delved into the events surrounding his mother's passing. The royal's decision may stem from the emotional toll it could potentially take, given the personal connection he has to Princess Diana's story.

The fallout between Prince Harry and Dominic West serves as a reminder that revelations made in the public domain can have consequences, impacting personal relationships and professional associations. While the two may have shared fond memories of their past camaraderie, it remains to be seen whether their friendship can withstand the fallout from West's unintentional disclosure.
