Harry's Split From Chelsy

Before he was married to Meghan Markle, Prince Harry was known for his on-again-off-again relationship with Chelsy Davy. The couple was frequently featured in the tabloid press, and when Davy announced the end of their relationship on Facebook, it was all over the news.

Prince William's Dancing Partner

Prince William is not afraid to make himself look silly. He will always join in on the fun during his royal engagements, dancing and taking part in local customs no matter where he is in the world. However, in this instance, he was not on royal duty.

In 2017, he was photographed dancing with a woman (believed to be model Sophie Taylor) at a nightclub, while on a ski trip. Speaking in an interview, he dismissed the incident as innocent fun.

Fergie's Bribery Scandal

Sarah Ferguson found herself in the tabloids again in 2010. This time, she had been caught by an undercover reporter, who offered her approximately $770,000 (at the time) in exchange for confidential information about her ex-husband, Prince Andrew.

In a shocking turn of events, she accepted the offer, claiming, "That opens up everything you could ever wish for. I can open any door you want." She later apologized, but it was too late. Her reputation had been damaged forever.

Harry and William’s Supposed Feud

For the past year, there have been rumors circulating in the media about a royal rift between brothers William and Harry. Apparently, things have gone frosty between the pair, although royal spokespeople have dismissed the claims.

This was said to have been sparked by personal issues, such as Harry's decision to step back from the royal family. Harry seemed to confirm this in an interview, stating, "We'll always be brothers ... but we're certainly on different paths at the moment."
