Prince Harry is opening up about the time he went over to his friend’s date’s house.
Writing in his memoir ‘Spare’, the Duke of Sussex touches upon attending a party at pal Thomas’ American girlfriend’s abode.
He pens: “My mate Thomas was dating a woman who lived in Los Angeles, so our first stop was her house. She gave a welcome party, invited a small group of friends over. Everyone was on the same page about alcohol—in other words, committed to consuming large amounts in a short time. Where we didn’t agree was which type. The typical Brit, I asked for a gin and tonic. Hell no, the Americans said, laughing.”
He recalls being told: “You’re in the States now, pal, have a real drink. Have a tequila. I was familiar with tequila. But mostly club tequila. Late-night tequila. What I was being offered now was proper tequila, fancy schmancy tequila, and I was being schooled in all the many ways of drinking it. Glasses were floating towards me containing tequila in every form. Neat. Rocks. Margarita. Splash of soda and lime. I drank it all, every drop, and started feeling very bloody good. I thought: I like these Americans. I like them a lot.”
