Usain Bolt is already planning Prince Harry’s buck’s party
Prince Harry is known to be a little competitive, and very into sports - so it makes sense that he and the greatest sprinter of all time, Usain Bolt, are close friends.
The two first met in 2012, when Harry was touring the Caribbean on royal duty. The friends share a laugh whenever they meet, and Harry even attempted to race Bolt in 2012. Harry jumped the gun in order to win- but Bolt insists he’s not usually a cheater. In fact, the retired athlete told The Sun during an interview that the Prince is ecstatic right now.

"[Harry] has always been a happy guy, but I've not seen him so happy since he's been with Meghan,” Bolt said. “We were at a wedding earlier this year. You have never seen a man with such a smile on his face — and it wasn't my jokes that put it there."

The 31-year-old said he knows the perfect place for Harry to pop the question to his Suits actress girlfriend Meghan: his home country of Jamaica.
“Come on, there is no more beautiful place in the world to propose than Jamaica. I am going to suggest it to him,” he said.

Bolt clearly wants to be involved in the rumoured upcoming wedding, and even went so far as to suggest that he plan Prince Harry’s buck’s party.
"He knows I want to plan it. I can make things happen in Jamaica. I can get the most beautiful beach closed off for him," Usain said. "I'm going to text him and plant that little seed."
Now those pictures, we would love to see.
