Prince Harry hasn’t held back in his memoir Spare, but a racy excerpt has some Australian TV hosts wishing he’d kept some things private.
Since its publication on Tuesday, the book has garnered numerous headlines for some of the anecdotes contained within its pages, but the Australian breakfast show thought that one anecdote was simply too wonderful to pass up.
On Wednesday, one of the Today show’s reporters read aloud a paragraph in which Harry recalls a 2016 reunion with Meghan Markle in a London hotel room.
After weeks apart, Harry wrote that when they finally had some privacy, Meghan wasted no time.
Lara Vella was tasked with reading the passage and recounting the tryst to the hosts Alex Cullen and Brooke Boney.
‘I knocked and held my breath as I waited. The door swung open. ‘That smile,’ read Vella.

‘Her hair was partly covering her eyes, her arms were reaching for me. She pulled me inside and thanked her friend in one fluid motion, then slammed the door quickly before anyone saw.’
The cameras then moved to Boney and Cullen, who were visibly irritated at being forced to listen in on the private moment.
Vella continued: ‘I want to say we hung a “do not disturb” sign on the door, but I don’t think there was enough time.’
Boney then squealed and recoiled, as Cullen blurted out: ‘Is this a Mills & Boon novel? Is this R-rated? Woah!’
Pulling herself back together, Boney joked: ‘In the audiobook he reads that… so imagine him saying that in his voice in your ear.’
‘You’re driving along in the car, maybe going for a walk with the dog [and] Harry’s saying that,’ she added, before lurching forward and gagging.
‘You’re pulling over for that bit,’ Cullen said, before Boney added that she was ‘going to be sick’.
The Duke of Sussex’s memoir contains numerous disclosures, including details about his sex life.
In it, he recalls losing his virginity to an older woman in a field, as well as how a journey to the South Pole left him with a frostbitten penis just before William and Kate’s 2011 wedding.
He also talks about his previous drug usage, including admitting to taking cocaine as a youngster and smoking cannabis after moving to California two years ago.
