He continued, "We never even kissed. We hung out once in a very non-datey way. She was just someone I had met on a TV show and we got lunch. That was the extent of it." 

According to Simon, after the story broke, several tabloids tried to bribe him to lie about the nature of his relationship with Meghan.

"When that story broke, a couple British tabloids offered to pay me a lot of money to say a lie that we actually hooked up," he said. Adding, "I said no to a lot of money because I didn’t feel right lying and f--king up the royal f--king family."
