I do want to hear it, because I’ve heard it’s really entertaining,” she told the outlet. “But yes, it’s gotten back to me about it. I’m not saying there were mushrooms! I definitely wasn’t passing them out.”
Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, 41, stayed at the 58-year-old’s home when she was “traveling on a job”, and noted that she “didn’t mind if we crashed at her place.” Courteney, who the father-of-two is a big fan of, confirmed that the couple had visited her home. “He did stay here for a couple of days — probably two or three. He’s a really nice person,” she gushed. In addition, Variety noted that Courteney and Harry recently attended a mutual friend’s birthday party, however, the Cougar Town star “kept to herself” as he mingled “with others.”

After a trash can formed into a “head” in the bathroom, the author imagined some wild things. “I stepped on the pedal and the head opened its mouth. A huge open grin. I laughed,” he added. His popular memoir has since become a record-selling book, with over 1.43 million copies sold in the United States as of Jan. 31, per The New York Times.
