Neve Campbell Looked Back on Her Fun Moment With Prince Harry
"It wasn't a date," the actress cleared up during a recent episode of The Jonathan Ross Show. "I went to a friend's birthday party and someone said, 'There's Harry!' and I was like, 'Harry who?' 'Prince Harry.'"
At the costumed fête, Harry and the Party of Five alum began talking for a while.
At the time, Harry divulged to Campbell that "he had a poster of me on his wall when he was a child, which I thought, 'That's a little awkward. How old?'"
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry tied the knot in 2018.
"I don't know if that was a line, though. It could've been a line," Campbell said on the British chat show.
However, the hangout didn't go beyond the party. "We had a dance," she said. "We had a nice time. We didn't exchange numbers or anything."
Nevertheless, the iconic scream queen had a great time and called the Spare author "really lovely."
