Harry and Meghan blasted the royal family in their incendiary 2021 interview with Oprah on US telly.
They sensationally claimed that an unnamed royal had concerns over the colour of baby Archie’s skin.
Meghan even suggested he may not be made a prince amid “conversations” about how dark he would be.’
But in a dramatic U-turn, Harry told pal Tom Bradby in his 90-minute interview they never made a racism accusation.
Bradby had asked Harry, 38, to elaborate on the Oprah interview in which “you accused members of your family of racism”.
Millions of viewers were left open-mouthed when Harry replied: “No I didn’t.”
Even Bradby looked stunned as the Duke of Sussex passed the blame elsewhere, muttering: “The British press said that.”
Other guests at Costner’s Summerland estate, which boasts a polo field, included Katy Perry’s parents, who posed for a selfie with the Sussexes.
Harry wore black while Meghan donned a sophisticated monochrome jacket with her hair pulled back.
The Sussexes were introduced onstage as special guests and Meghan presented Kevin with an honorary award.
Speaking at the event, Costner said: “Good Afternoon everyone, I get asked a lot by my friends who have no manners …
“Kev, what’s this place cost, what’s it worth?” I can just simply tell you on a day like today, it’s worth every penny.
“We can celebrate people that you’d maybe never meet, the ones who are the first to rush in.
“It’s a place where I’ve had a lot of good luck in my life and I try to not put a wall around it.”
Oprah later introduced first responder Sam Dudley, alongside his service dog Rhonda, who had benefited from therapy provided by One805.
The Sussexes were earlier spotted backstage chatting to Costner and other VIP guests, mainly senior figures from local police and firefighting services.
Harry was later seen dancing while Meghan chatted to other attendees before both did a mini Royal-style walkabout.
The couple’s appearance at the Friday night event comes just days after they returned from the Invictus Games in Düsseldorf, Germany.
Harry celebrated his 39th birthday in the city alongside Meghan and Archewell staff, gorging on German blood sausages and sinking beer at a traditional German restaurant.
