Prince Harry Asks Media to Leave Girlfriend Alone

Prince Harry has waved his scepter and spoken from the throne -- he wants the media to cut the crap when it comes to speaking ill of his new TV star girlfriend ... NOW.

Britain's prince issued a statement from Kensington Palace Tuesday saying a wave of recent harassment onto his new bird, Meghan Markle has finally crossed a line ... and he's had enough.

In the statement, Harry says Meghan's been subject to front page smears, sexism and outright racism in national newspapers and other media outlets ... not to mention feeling the wrath of "online trolls."

The statement goes on to say Harry is concerned for Meghan's safety and feels he hasn't been able to protect his new girlfriend, who's on the USA show, "Suits." He wants everyone involved to "pause and reflect" before any more damage is done.
