Piers Morgan reveals why Prince Harry cut contact with Eugenie
Piers Morgan appeared to confirm reports that Prince Harry cut contact with his cousin, Princess Eugenie after she was snapped hanging out with him. The Duke of Sussex has been estranged from the Royal Family ever since he and Meghan Markle quit the Firm and moved to the US in 2020.
However, Harry remained close to the Princess of York despite his feud with the royals. The Sussexes's close relationship with Eugenie was even highlighted last year after it emerged that Harry and Meghan bought a new holiday home in Portugal, very close to the princess's home. But recently, reports claimed that the duke's relationship with his cousin "soured" after she was snapped having lunch with the broadcaster last April, who is an avid critic of Meghan and Harry.
