Prince Harry is putting split rumors to rest.
The Duke of Sussex shut down speculation that he and wife of six years, Meghan Markle, are headed for divorce due to the couple attending several recent public engagements separately.
“Apparently we’ve bought or moved house 10, 12 times,” the 40-year-old said at the New York Times‘ 2024 DealBook Summit in New York City Dec. 4, according to People. “We’ve apparently divorced maybe 10, 12 times as well. So it’s just like, what?”
He added, “It’s hard to keep up with, but that’s why you just sort of ignore it.”
Although navigating tabloid gossip is nothing new for the royal—who is fifth in line to the British throne—he did reveal what he really thinks of those who fuel the negative rumors surrounding his personal life.
“The people I feel most sorry about are the trolls,” Harry continued. “Their hopes are just built and built, and it’s like, ‘Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,’ and then it doesn’t happen. So I feel sorry for them. Genuinely, I do.”
