MEGHAN Markle’s half brother will take on Mark Wahlberg’s best mate in a celebrity boxing match, it has been revealed.
Thomas Markle Jr, the Duchess of Sussex‘s older brother, is set to fight Henry ‘Nacho’ Laun, Hollywood star Wahlberg’s “extreme eater” pal from Boston in the ring.
Window fitter Markle, 52, from Oregon, in the US, will fight under his new boxing nickname Tommy ‘The Duke’ in a nod to his royal brother-in-law Prince Harry.
His opponent Laun, 54, an actor and food lover who co-starred in hit reality series The Wahlburgers, will go by ‘Nahco Extreme’ in the ring, the Mail Online reports.
They will face off in what Laun says will be a “slug fest” fight in a match booked for June 29 that will take place either in Los Angeles or Atlantic City.
He told the site: “I’m down for a good time, any time. I don’t have a fighting style, I just roll with the punches, one step at a time.
It’s going to be tough getting in shape for the fight, after all I’m a 52-year-old, out of shape smoker.

“It could be a slug fest, if they wanna bust out the ten ounce gloves fine, the 16, no problem.
“I’ll just go mano a mano, old school, I’ll go bare knife too if I have too – that’s why they call me the EXTREME.”
Weighing in at 265lbs, Laun is 15lbs heavier than his opponent. But Markle has a seven inch height advantage standing at 6ft 3ins to Laun’s 5ft 8ins.
But experience in the ring may also be a factor in favour for Wahlberg’s best pal as the pair go head to head.
Last week Markle spoke out about the upcoming match.
I have former champion boxer Joey ‘D Train’ Degrandis training me in Boston, he’s a four different belt champion.

He told the site: “I’m primed and ready to get started.
“It’s going to be tough getting in shape for the fight, after all I’m a 52-year-old, out of shape smoker.
“But it’s going to be a lot of fun.
“I used to do martial arts but I don’t have any experience, I think I can handle it though, I know the basics.
“I’m pretty excited about it.”
Meghan’s big bro may have difficulty coming up against Laun, who is a veteran of the Celebrity Boxing ring and has recorded wins against former NFL star Lee Woodhall in a bout in 2015.
The actor says he also has experienced trainers in his corner.

Laun said: “I have former champion boxer Joey ‘D Train’ Degrandis training me in Boston, he’s a four different belt champion.
“I’m also meeting with former champ ‘Irish’ Mickey Ward who’s gonna help me out.
“I’ll be ready by the middle of May the way I go and I have my own entourage too.”
