ROYALS'This Guy's A Party': Dax Shepard Presses Prince Harry On Infamous Nude Photo Scandal, Compliments Royal On Rockin' Bod
A great body, and he's a prince! Prince Harry sat down with Dax Shepard for an episode of the "Armchair Expert" podcast, and the two got into some salacious topics. In the May 13 episode, the podcast host told the Duke of Sussex that he was made aware of the red-headed royal after photos of the then 27-year-old prince partying it up in Las Vegas (sans clothing!) leaked in the press.
"You're the only one I ever knew [from the Royal Family] and simply because you were in those awesome nude photos in Vegas," the funny man said bluntly, referring to the infamous pictures of the prince covering the crown jewels while on vacation in 2012.
Shepard added, "I literally said to myself, 'This guy's a party!'" He then complimented the royal on his "good body."
Looking back at the scandal with a sense of humor, the ever-charming Harry replied, "You're constantly looking for other people to balance out your own behavior, right? It's relatable." The Duke also explained that the photographs were taken "a few weeks before I went to Afghanistan," where he served in the military from 2007-2008 — hence his impeccable shape.

In the rare in-depth interview with the most talked about royal, which dropped on Thursday, The Ranch actor covered a wide range of topics with the prince. The two talked about everything from his mental health to the pressures of being a royal and, of course, his wife Meghan Markle, who is currently pregnant with the couple's second child.
Harry and Meghan have had quite the first year as a married couple in America. After leaving the U.K. and stepping back from the royal family in 2020, the couple started their own podcast with Archwell audio, signed a huge deal with Netflix, sat down for an explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey and — oh yeah — are readying the house for Archie's little sister.
While the year has been filled with incredible new opportunities for the couple, the Duke of Sussex continues to deal with the fallout from the royal family, including conflict with brother Prince William and father Prince Charles, as well as grappling with the recent death of his grandfather Prince Philip. As OK! previously reported, the future is looking a bit brighter since Harry is "finally communicating properly with his family again," a source said.
But things aren't peachy keen between the princes just yet. Charles is said to be “freezing” his son out of the monarchy. Only time will tell what happens between the royal men when they reunite to mark what would have been Princess Diana's 60th birthday.
