P Diddy allegedly tried to get Princes William and Harry to his parties.
Sean 'Diddy' Combs' ex-PR guru spilled the beans, claiming that Prince William and Prince Harry snubbed the rap mogul's swanky soirees. Rob Shuter, who once repped Diddy, told the BBC that the hip-hop heavyweight was dead keen on getting the royal brothers into his VIP circle.
"Diddy was obsessed with Prince Harry and Prince William," Shuter claims. "He thinks of himself as a king, so it makes perfect sense that he would like to have two princes in his entourage. [Harry and William] never accepted [the invites], they were never part of his world."

Shuter claims Diddy didn't just try once or twice but attempted "more than 10 times" in an effort to get Harry and Wills to pop round to his parties, even promising to pick up the tab for all their expenses.
Diddy himself opened up during a 2011 chat on The Graham Norton Show and said: "Before, when they were young bucks growing up, and they were getting in a lot of trouble themselves, so, hey, I was like, 'Why don't you come hang out with me?" said Diddy.
Fox News got the lowdown from Royal author Christopher Andersen who claims the invites dried up after Prince William popped the question to Kate Middleton in 2010. "But those invitations were wisely turned down, and after William and Kate [Middleton] got engaged [in 2010], Diddy got the hint and stopped inviting them altogether," Andersen claims.
While the Royal brothers never graced the events, it's no secret that Combs' bashes are a magnet for other A-list celebs. Hollywood royalty including Leonardo DiCaprio were spotted at Diddy's events back in the day.
Combs was arrested on 16 September and charged with sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution. The rapper "categorically denies" all of the charges held against him.
Diddy was placed on suicide watch but taken off shortly after while preparing for trial. He has been denied bail.
