I can honestly say it was the most nerve-racking thing I’ve ever done

Speaking to a UK newspaper, the pop star revealed that doing a speech at his mum’s wedding in June was his toughest performance yet.

‘I did give a speech and I can honestly say it was the most nerve-racking thing I’ve ever done.’

Harry, who said the wedding was a ‘really great day,’ helped his mum organise the event and even splashed out on a £50,000 Bentley for her to arrive in.

The 1D star hinted in another recent interview that there might be a someone special in his life: 'There is… I’ve got someone that I like, yeah,' he revealed
