As per Daily Mail, Prince Philip warned: “One steps out with actresses, one doesn't marry them."

“Idle dinner party gossip, perhaps, although it does sound like a Prince Philip bon mot,” the outlet added.

Meanwhile, expert Katie Nichols tells The Sun: “Of course, William had taken many years before he proposed to Kate Middleton because he wanted her to be his wife. He wanted her to be able to know that this was what she wanted for her life too.

“And I think, you know, what was meant to be well-intended brotherly advice landed really badly with Harry.”
