The story comes out of a new book about Andrew. The fight supposedly took place in 2013, who is always in physical fight? Harry. He went after both his brother and his uncle....his brother got the best end of the fight when he clocked Harry. What did Harry do? Whined like a baby.
The book is going to be serialized in the DM, but it's behind the paywall, of course.

I am skeptical about the book and its stories and claims.

The author founded his well known literary agency and has written several biographies. However, Ms. Secrest the author of the book about Princess Margaret is well known and has made at least one outrageous claim about Margaret.
I read the blurbs about the book on the DM paywall article and they sensational and lurid. It sounds as if it's another book full of claims and dirt rather than a serious look at Andrew.

The author interviewed about his work last February.

Yep. Neither William nor Andrew are prone to using fisticuffs, nor are they known for backstabbing.

Harry says it didn't happen

Is Harry telling the truth or is he towing the line for The Firm?

I think he's backtracking on the claim.

Harry, stupid as usual, making a big deal out of an anecdote in a book. He would have been better off keeping quiet and ignoring the whole thing. Now, acting outraged and threatening to sue the DM, he's making the claim look true and he's guilty.
Why sue the DM? They're just the agent publishing excerpts from the book, sue the author. Oh, he doesn't have the nerve to go after the author, it's the big, bad media that's at fault.
If Andrew doesn't issue a denial, then it makes Harry look as if he's covering up the incident in the eyes of the public, true or not.
I'm sure Andrew isn't thrilled, but his lawyer has probably advised him not to issue any statements which is the wise course.

Andrew Lownie Responds

"Sharing the Newsweek story on its X, formerly Twitter handle, Andrew Lownie tweeted “I look forward to doing battle and the disclosures which will emerge.”

I probably should have put this in the Sussex thread, if the Harry/author war continues, I will move it to the Sussex thread even if it is a book about Andrew.

A spokesperson for Prince Harry told PEOPLE: "I can confirm neither of those things are true. Prince Harry and Prince Andrew have never had a physical fight, nor did Prince Andrew ever make those comments about the Duchess of Sussex to Prince Harry."
