www.dailymail.co.uk, September 12, 2024
The Duke of Sussex is set to go on a lads' holiday for his 40th birthday but while it will be a world away from his hedonistic past, the rumoured guest list gives a slim hope that a game of naked billiards could still be on the cards. It won't be in Vegas, Benidorm or Ibiza, the Duke of Sussex is expected to go to a mountain retreat in California with his 'closest mates' - some of whom may fly over from the UK. Harry will reportedly go away to celebrate his landmark birthday after a low-key celebration at his £11million mansion in Montecito with Meghan, Archie and Lilibet on Sunday September 15 - his actual 40th. Harry's twenties and thirties were littered with partying and scandal including a now infamous and hedonistic trip to Las Vegas in 2012 and the time he dressed as a Nazi at a fancy dress party. While his pool of friends has undoubtedly shrunk, his best friend Nacho Figueras - a man he considers to be like a brother - will surely be there. Harry also has a group of British celebrity friends, including Chris Martin and Orlando Bloom. There are also rumours that Harry's 'close friends internationally' might jet in. His British friends have splintered after Harry's falling out with his brother - but he remains close to karaoke king James Corden, who is back living in the UK.
