I haven’t talked to Prince Harry for a while, he got serious with Meghan Markle really quickly, says ex-pal Usain Bolt

OLYMPIC legend Usain Bolt has joined the list of stars ghosted by Prince Harry since he met Meghan.

The sprinter — once so close to Harry, 37, that he said he wanted to help organise his stag do — has now admitted they no longer speak.

Bolt said: ‘I haven’t talked to him in a while but I still would like to keep in contact’

In an exclusive chat with The Celeb Report, Usain said: “No, I didn’t (get to organise his stag).

“I think he got really serious, really quickly. He is about married life and good for it now so has left that life behind now.

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

Bolt, 35, is the latest name to be added to those snubbed by Harry following his union with Meghan.

Others include TV personality Piers Morgan and Harry’s pals from his time at Ludgrove School Primary.

His comments are a far cry from just four years ago when the Jamaican sprinter said he wanted to host three wild nights out for the playboy Prince.

Bolt said at the time: “I’m thinking about having three. My idea is to have one in Kingston, one in Vegas and one in London.

“I know it’s a lot to ask but these are his last nights of freedom.

“I will personally call Meghan and take responsibility for getting him home safely after each.”

Much like Harry — who has children, Archie, two, and six-month-old Lilibet — Bolt has also started a family since then.

He and his long-time girlfriend Kasi Bennett had daughter Olympia, now 19 months.

She was followed by twins Saint Leo and Thunder in June this year.

Bolt was talking as he marked Virgin Media’s gigabit broadband roll-out across its network.

Speaking about how fatherhood has changed him, he said: “I definitely think the biggest thing at the start is to be patient.

“I wasn’t a patient person but when you have three kids you have to be patient and understanding.

“They just do what they want. You have to understand that they don’t understand a lot so you have to teach them and keep repeating it.

“I have a little bit of help now but at the start we took it on ourselves just me and my girlfriend.”

Meanwhile, Harry and 40-year-old Meghan are not expected to make the trip to Sandringham this month to spend Christmas with the Queen.

It will be her first Christmas without Prince Philip, her husband of 70 years, who died in April.
