OFF THEIR NUTS AND BOLTS

Usain Bolt plans to give pal Prince Harry three stag-dos before wedding Meghan Markle

The Jamaican sprinter said he would love to give the smitten royal stag-dos in Kingston, Vegas, and London before he walks down the aisle in May

USAIN Bolt is planning three stag-dos for party-loving Prince Harry.

The Jamaican sprint legend, 31, would love to give his pal a triple send-off to remember.

Usain, 31, laughed: “Already I’m planning the stag — but not just one.

“I’m thinking about having three. My idea is to have one in Kingston, one in Vegas, and one in London.

“I know it’s a lot to ask but these are his last nights of freedom. I will personally call Meghan and take responsibility for getting him home safely after each.”

They became friends during Harry’s 2012 Caribbean tour, hitting it off after Harry beat Usain in a sprint by cheekily jumping the start gun.

Eight-time Olympic gold medallist Usain first met Meghan, 36, in March at the wedding of 33-year-old Harry’s friend Tom “Skippy” Inskip and Lara Hughes-Young.

He said: “I knew they’d get married, they just looked so happy together.

“I’ve known Harry a lot of years and he’s a fun guy but I’ve never seen him as happy as now.”
