Harry Challenges Usain Bolt to a Rematch Amid Cheating Allegations

Prince Harry has thrown down the gauntlet to Olympic sprinter Usain Bolt after the athlete claimed Harry cheated during a race.

The revelation came to light in an unearthed account, shedding new light on the Duke of Sussex's competitive side.

Harry, along with his wife Meghan Markle, famously stepped down from their roles as members of the royal family and now reside in the United States with their two children, Archie and Lilibet.

This decision was made two years ago when they announced their intention to become financially independent while still supporting the Queen.

This year, Queen Elizabeth II will celebrate an unprecedented 70 years on the throne, marking her Platinum Jubilee in June.

A decade ago, for her Diamond Jubilee, Harry actively participated in the celebrations as one of the key royals.

As part of the commemoration, he flew to Jamaica where he had a friendly race against the fastest man in the world, Usain Bolt.

However, it was during this race at the University of the West Indies Stadium in Kingston that Bolt accused Harry of cheating due to a false start.

In response to the accusations, Bolt stated, “He cheated.

I said we would have a rematch in London 2012, and Harry said, ‘I'm busy.'

He's cool, very down to earth.

When you meet dignitaries, you think it will be difficult, but he just wanted to laugh.

It was an honor and a pleasure to meet him.

I'm still the fastest man in the world, so he has a long way to go.”

Despite the allegations, Harry later challenged Bolt to another race in 2016, wishing him a happy birthday and acknowledging his recent Olympic success.

Bolt had just won his ninth gold medal in Rio, solidifying his status as one of the greatest athletes of all time.

In a tweet, Harry said, “Congratulations Usain Bolt, now you're officially the greatest.

You might be ready for a rerun.

Happy 30th.”

Bolt accepted the invitation during an event in the US the following year, expressing his readiness for a rematch.

However, Bolt's recent comments indicate a strained relationship between him and Harry since the Duke's marriage to Meghan.

Bolt revealed that they no longer speak, stating, “No, I didn't get to organize his stag.

I think he got really serious, really quickly.

He is about married life and good for it now, so he has left that life behind.

I haven't talked to him in a while, but I still would like to keep in contact.”

The sprinter joins the growing list of individuals who have been ghosted by Harry since his union with Meghan, including TV personality Piers Morgan and his childhood friends from Ludgrove School Primary.

These recent developments mark a significant departure from four years ago when Bolt expressed his desire to host three wild nights out for the “Playboy Prince” before his marriage.

He had even planned celebrations in Kingston, Vegas, and London, emphasizing the importance of these last moments of freedom.

However, both Bolt and Harry have since started families, with Bolt and his longtime girlfriend Cassie Bennett welcoming their first child, Olympia, followed by twins Saint Leo and Thunder in June this year.

Speaking about fatherhood and how it has changed him, Bolt emphasized the need for patience and understanding.

He admitted that initially, he wasn't a patient person, but having three children has taught him the importance of repetition and teaching.

Bolt also mentioned that while they initially handled parenting responsibilities themselves, they are now seeking a bit of assistance.

As the saga continues, it remains to be seen whether Harry and Bolt will ever have their much-anticipated rematch.

The world eagerly awaits the outcome of this friendly rivalry between royalty and athleticism.
