Paddy McGuinness enjoyed topless smooch with Prince Harry after night of partying

Prince Harry and Paddy McGuinness locked lips during a wild night of partying, the TV presenter says.

The Take Me Out and Top Gear host says the royal whipped his top off before they locked lips at a boozy Soccer Aid party in 2016.

The bash was in June, just weeks before Harry met his future wife Meghan Markle.

And Paddy joked that Harry was desperate to visit the island of Fernando's, the fictional holiday destination winning Take Me Out couples are sent to.

According to The Sun, Paddy wrote in his new autobiography My Lifey: "To say we were dancing close was an understatement — our chests were touching. He asked me again if I could send him to Fernando’s.

"He then proceeded to take my shirt off. So now I’m topless, a bottle of beer in each hand, dancing with Prince Harry."

Paddy says that Harry then disappeared before returning with Jagerbombs, with the pair downing shots before resuming their dance off.

He added: "We finished dancing and while everyone was cheering, we embraced and he gave me a smacker on the lips."

Harry then left the club, leaving the charity football players gobsmacked and agreeing that the prince is an "absolute legend".

Paddy says he'd arranged to meet Harry alongside Soccer Aid teammate Jack Whitehall at Jak's nightclub in Chelsea, west London.

They were met there by a few other famous faces, including One Direction's Louis Tomlinson and Niall Horan, as well as former England manager Sam Allardyce.

According to the book Finding Freedom, Harry and Meghan met in July 2016 when they were introduced by a mutual friend.

That means that Paddy could have been the last person that Harry kissed before settling down with his future wife and mother of his two children.

And Paddy says that the day after their wild night out, Harry sent a text to Bad Education star Jack to thank him for a fun evening and to ask how Paddy's head was.

Paddy is married to model and Real Housewives of Cheshire star Christine, and they share three kids, twins Penelope and Leo, eight, and Felicity, five.
