Legendary Dallas Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman lives near some very famous neighbors, but has not yet met them despite their proximity.

Speaking exclusively to Us Weekly to promote a new brand of light beer he made, Aikman spoke about how he’s spent part of his summer on his property in Montecito, California. 

That property is nearby the residence of Prince Harry and his wife, former ‘Suits’ actress Meghan Markle.

‘I haven’t run into them,’ Aikman said in the interview. ‘But they are there, from what I can gather. 

‘I think anyone with a heartbeat knows that they’re out there. But I’m not hanging with them, that’s for sure.’

Aikman added a joke, saying, ‘I don’t think they’re drinking much light beer.’

Markle made a recent podcast appearance and talked about how the public perceives her

These comments come off the back of a bombshell podcast interview that the Duchess of SusSєx gave to her friend and fellow podcaster Emma Grede, the British-born CEO of fashion brand Good American and a founding partner of Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS line.

Emma asked the Duchess: ‘If you could rewrite your public narrative from scratch, is there anything you would do differently?’.

Meghan wore a determined look and replied: ‘Yes, I would ask people to tell the truth’.

Ms Gerde said Meghan must feel ‘angry’ to have people ‘lying about [her] all the time’. Meghan said that she dealt with this by remembering advice from her friend, tennis champion Serena Williams.

‘My dear friend Serena, she told me years ago: ‘A lie can’t live forever’.’ Meghan then laughed and said pointedly: ‘Eight years is a long time, but not forever’ – a clear nod to the period when she first began dating Prince Harry.

She then described fame as having ‘peaks and valleys’ and claims she has survived with ‘a lot of self work’ as well as de-stressing by spending time with her children, hiking and ‘date nights’ with Harry.

There was also a subtle dig at royal life where she described times in her life where she ‘wasn’t as empowered with my voice’, but said of her return to Instagram, which she left when she became a royal: ‘It was a great way to get my voice back.’
