Prince Harry was accused of two-timing Meghan Markle with a model before they got married.

Just recently, Markle’s cheating rumors resurfaced, with the Duchess of Sussex being rumored to have still been dating Cory Vitiello when she met Prince Harry. Some even accused her of dumping the Canadian restaurateur for the royal prince.

But Markle wasn’t the only one alleged to have cheated on their relationship. Prince Harry was also accused of two-timing the former “Suits” star with British model Sarah Ann Macklin.

An insider told Daily Mail in 2016 that Prince William’s brother was seeing a Markle lookalike while he was starting his relationship with Markle. In fact, Prince Harry’s interest in Macklin made her ex-boyfriend David Gandy jealous.

“Their fling is an open secret among her friends,” the source said. “David Gandy knew that Harry was pursuing her and tried to get her back. At one point she had the country’s most famous male model and a prince vying for her affection, and the novelty was not lost on her.”

The same source continued saying that Macklin turned down Gandy and dated Prince Harry. However, their romance was shortlived as it eventually fizzed out. But Prince Harry and Macklin remain on friendly terms.

Another insider shared that Macklin and Prince Harry were introduced at a social gathering and Prince Harry made a beeline for her. She was very flattered by the royal’s attention and they went on a few dates but kept it below the radar.

The source said that Prince Harry and Macklin were very different because she is very clean living and barely drinks. They were on a different wavelength. Also, Prince Harry was a “bit non-committal” at the time because he was reportedly already seeing Markle. Thus, things never got off the ground between him and the model.

When Macklin was asked about her royal fling with Prince Harry shortly after his relationship with Markle made headlines, the model declined to confirm or deny it.

“I wouldn’t speak about my personal life, whether it’s with Prince Harry or anyone. I wouldn’t tell you whether it was true or not,” Macklin said.

In related news, Prince Harry and Markle are still enjoying their six-week break. However, some might questioned their long break because their jobs don’t constitute a hard life.
