James Corden has shared a cryptic post after reports that David Beckham helped defuse a fallout with Prince Harry.
Prince Harry, 40, reportedly made a “cruel comment” about Corden’s appearance during a night out in London in December 2011, the Mail claimed on Sunday.
Corden, 46, was “furious” about the jibe and Beckham, 49, then England’s football captain, reportedly had to play peacemaker to prevent the situation from escalating.
Hours after the report was published, Corden shared a post about “falling with nothing to hold onto.”
The Gavin And Stacey star posted the message from British illustrator Charlie Mackesy on Instagram on Sunday with the caption: “We all need this from Charlie Mackesy every once in a while [love heart emoji].”
The message read: “Once in a while, out of the blue, your heart spins, and it can feel like you're falling with nothing to hold onto. But you are not the storm, and it will pass. x”
Corden’s fans flooded the comments with their support for the late-night chat show host.
“Hope you're ok dude,” one wrote, while another penned, “Sending love,” and a third chimed in: “Hope you're OK James...”
According to the Mail, Corden had finished performing in One Man, Two Guvnors and joined Beckham, Harry, and friends at the Arts Club in Mayfair for a “pre-Christmas piss-up.”
Upon arriving, he found the group had been drinking for hours and Harry allegedly made a remark about Corden’s appearance that left the actor upset, with the Mail choosing not to republish the comment.
The source claimed: “Then it all kicked off, James was furious. It quickly emerged that Harry had told a joke and James definitely did not find it funny.
“To an outsider, it would have looked like there was a right carry on taking place.”
Beckham reportedly stepped in to calm the situation and “talk everyone around.”
“Ever the peacemaker, he talked to both sides and reassured Corden that no harm was meant by the cruel comment,” the source said.
Corden eventually “calmed down” and the night carried on, with some of the group heading to the Savoy for another drink, the outlet claimed.
The bust-up reportedly led to a “bromance” between Corden and Harry.
Harry even appeared on Corden’s Late Late Show in 2021 and they appeared calm and relaxed as they rapped the Fresh Prince of Bel Air theme.
