Elizabeth Hurley has denied that she is the “beautiful older woman” Prince Harry reportedly lost his virginity to.
The bombshell revelation of his “tryst” is claimed to feature in his upcoming memoir, Spare.
But the actress, 57, has laughed off rumours that she is the lover who bedded the Duke of Sussex as a teen.
The Austin Powers star was asked about the claims this week, but she told The Times : "Not me. Not guilty. Ha!”
Liz added: "No. Not me. Absolutely not.”

Prince Harry is said to be unveiling details of his encounter with a "beautiful older woman in the countryside" in his tell-all book set to be released in the new year.
Fuelling now debunked rumours, his wife Meghan Markle previously wrote about having a “girl crush” on Liz in a coincidental admission before she met Harry.
Writing on her now-defunct blog The Tig in 2015, the former Suits star said the fondness was ignited by Liz's famed safety pin Versace dress moment.
Harry’s upcoming book, named to reference to the phrase “the heir and the spare” which used by Harry while growing up in the shadow of his brother, the bombshell book will be published on January 10.

Harry will rake in more than £36million for lifting the lid on his time as a royal leading up to his acrimonious exit from “The Firm” with wife Meghan.
The 416-page memoir, ghost written by American novelist J.R. Moehringer and complete with a striking cover image of Harry, will contain “raw, unflinching honesty”, according to the publishers.
It will cost £28 for a hardback, with the audio book, voiced by Harry himself, priced at £20, but is already being offered at half the cost by Waterstones.
The book was set to come out this autumn but the date was pushed back as a mark of respect following the death of the Queen.
Sources with knowledge of the deal said both Harry, 38, and the publishers were keen to make changes to the memoir following the Queen ’s death.

One well-placed source said: “The very title demonstrates yet another confrontational attack on the family after claiming a desire for privacy.
“Palace lawyers will undoubtedly be on standby in the New Year waiting to see what is in it.
“If Harry’s previous allegations across numerous TV interviews are anything to go by, this will be nuclear.
"Regardless of the content, which will no doubt be explosive, there will be little chance of this acting as a vehicle to reconciliation for Harry and Meghan.”
