The Hallmark Star Who Claims She Almost Romanced Prince Harry

He may be fifth in line for the royal throne, but there’s a good reason why Prince Harry didn’t get a chance at being the King of Katie Cassidy’s heart. It all unfolded about a decade ago on the white-sanded beaches of Miami, Florida, when the “Cover Versions” star had a chance encounter with one of the world’s most sought-after bachelors.

“I was just there with some of my girlfriends, we had just finished shooting [Arrow], we were on vacation,” she dished to ET. “He had come with some of his friends … one of his friends, I think, was getting married, so he was a part of the bachelor party. They were sorta on a bachelor weekend, and they were, like, ‘Hey. You guys should come out with us.'” While most of us might have swooned over such a picture-perfect meet-cute, Cassidy had no plans to paint the town red with the prince — even though she was the only single one in her friend group. 

So, why the cold shoulder for the steamy prince? As she explained, “[They] were like, ‘You guys should come out with us tonight.’ I was like, ‘Uh, no. With all due respect, Prince Harry, that’s the last thing I’m gonna do — be photographed.'” Although she nixed the night out to maintain her privacy, she had only positive things to say about the charming royal.
