When Dean Stott embarked on his bid to break the record for cycling the length of South and North America, the former special forces soldier joked that his wife might divorce him if he didn't get back to see their friend Prince Harry marry Meghan Markle.

He was spared any marital strife, however, when he completed the 14,000-mile journey from Argentina to Alaska in 99 days – 18 days less than the previous record – and attended the wedding at Windsor Castle in May.

But the 41-year-old veteran, who has raised £1 million for Harry's Heads Together mental health charity, now faces claims that he 'cheated' by using fake documents to whisk his support team across borders and by riding more than one bike, in breach of the rules.

Sources say that during the early stages, Mr Stott used two bikes, one better suited to flat terrains and the other with lower gears to assist during hilly stages, claims he denies.

By the time they reached Mexico, relations between Mr Stott and his crew had become so bad that the team flew back to the UK after a series of rows over the faked papers and unpaid expenses.

Simon Fagan, a solicitor acting for the support team, said: 'The trip was organised by Mr Stott, his wife Alana and close friends. 

'It would appear that during the expedition they facilitated or instructed other team members to create documents needed to bring equipment and machinery across borders to prevent the challenge being delayed.

'The actions of parties working with or for Mr Stott put our clients' welfare at risk. 

'Had they been caught with illegal papers, they would have been arrested and almost certainly imprisoned.'

Mr Stott, a friend of Harry's since they trained together in 2007, began the Pan-American Highway challenge in February, allegedly having moved the start date forward by a month to give himself a chance of making the Royal wedding.

In a personal video message to help raise sponsorship, Prince Harry told the former Special Boat Service commando: 'This is a huge undertaking. But Dean, I have known you a long time and I know you can do it.'

Cycling for up to 20 hours a day, Mr Stott was helped by a team of volunteers. They claim that they were told their expenses would be met but are owed £120,000.

Medic Paul Lawrenson said: 'We were working for free and felt exploited as none of us were getting any media exposure. It was all just about Dean.'

Last night, Mr Stott admitted that 'copied and pasted' documents had been used during the challenge but said these only related to vehicles used by his support team.

Claims this aided his record attempt were 'incorrect and misleading', he added. 'It is disappointing the huge positives that have come out of this are being overshadowed by unfounded claims,' he said.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
