Harry & Chelsy’s New Year Botswana Getaway

Prince Harry kisses girlfriend, Chelsy Davy

Katie Nicholl reveals that Prince Harry will be taking Chelsy Davy to Botswana for a New Year getaway…

He will treat Chelsy, 24, to several nights at the five-star Shakawe fishing lodge in the Okavango Delta, which is one of their favourite holiday spots. Harry, 25, is desperate for a romantic break with Chelsy before he has to resume his helicopter training.

A source told the Daily Mail -

‘They are back together, but it’s definitely Harry who has been doing all the running. Chelsy hates the media attention and it’s one of the reasons they are staying so low-key.

Chelsy is planning to bring along friends from South Africa and Harry wants to invite some of his friends from home, too, so there will be a big group. They are still wary about being seen as a couple so Chelsy is hoping being in a group will dilute scrutiny over them.’

    Hello,

    On way out to Gatwick.

    Careful. Story of Gilmore’s is a bit strange. Certainly close to where they stray these days but unless they knew who was booking I can assure you it’s difficult to get an evening table 2-3 months in advance, so story of the ‘unknown’ booking doesn’t hold water.

    However happy to hear about their ‘normal’ night out but again, careful.

    Car here

    Bye

    is it being floated to make kate look bad re i don’t care about my ’spliff smoking’ uncle?

    or is it being floated by william to counter any kate and i are not on and maybe Jecca and i are

    it is richard kay reporting this

    He has been silent virtually since William talked about his mother and send the daily mail a letter about his mother

    I think there was an arrangement made with Richard Kay around that letter

    What that arrangement is I have no idea – but my guess is it had something to do with laying off William and Kate and her family in return for the letter for Diana and then updates now and then about where they have been or are going for exclusives in a a sense. Mind you it was the Sun that got the picture of kate and william kissing. I think the sun is the friend if you could say of William …. the Daily Mail however>???? i am still trying to figure out

    So who would richard’s sources be? My guess is someone close to William and that this was a plant ….

    Do not see your point about Jecca, perhaps from the speculation created from posters in the Royal Truth.

    Any other conspiracy theory on a normal outing for these 2 who have been a couple for about 7 years is…no comments. Anyway, the conspiracy theories are coming shorter than previous years of sightings. One occasion came with a photo months later, so sweet, the ice skating :)

    Me that site will always start up some kind of speculation. They refuse to accept reality.

    I just saw a commercial about “Good Morning America” and this week cameras will be allowed inside Balmoral Castle. I think back in 07 GMA took us inside Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle, now they are taking us inside Balmoral. I can’t wait to see that.

    Yes Rman, I agree. There are 3 comments, 2 red arrows, 1 green.

    I believe from the latest KM articles (including the Starlight article), people are getting wiser with the bullying slant, if any, of the columnist. Rather then, the girl has been keeping her life low profile and private, and everyone knows she is working for the family business. I was happy to see indeed many positive comments in that particular Starlight article in the DM

    Here is one example of the 3 Richard Kay comments thus far.

    Comment:
    well kate may not be bothered by her ibiza party drug prostitution uncle and her tacky mother.
    But those of us wondering who our next Queen will be certainly are.

    - Fern, Shropshire, uk, 19/10/2009 05:37

    Fern got 28 red arrows until now.

    I just want to know why everyone believes this date story?

    The same newspaper, the DM just wrote unflattering remarks about Carole Middlton at the Starlight event.

    Now, a few weeks later we trust them to report truthfully about KM and PW going on a date, a story for which there are no photos.

    I am not sure I believe this story!

  • Rman

    Well Clover, I would like to have seen some pictures of them out at the restaurant but we won’t get pictures all the time. Just like there was a story of the Queen & Prince Philip going out to see a play, we didn’t get any pictures of that either but I believe they did go.

    I do believe RK’s artical on William & Kate going out and having a nice dinner. I don’t remember RK making fun of Carole’s dress at the charity event, that was another journalist I think.

    It’s good to hear something nice and simple about this couple from time to time.

    Me, the bullying went on far too long but I’m glad people are starting to recognize the nasty attitudes that some people have about this couple.

    It’s not just about people being nasty to this couple though, it seem like people all over the world are getting nasty and angry for some reason. I think everyone just need to take a chill pill and give love & peace a chance.

    Rman,
    I will have to be more like you and learn what journalist at each paper to believe.

    So are you saying that Richard Kay at the DM can be trusted?

    I do have some experience with Katie Nichols at the DM, and I don’t believe a word she writes.

    Any others? I will take good notes.

    Well Clover, it happened to with Carole’s article, people are tiered of the bullying (unflattering remarks). The 150+ comments, 2-3 agreed with the author but not with the public-they got landslide of red arrows, the rest where positive.

    Well yes, lately Mandrake (The Telegraph), Duncan Larcombe (The Sun), and Shreck video from the Shreck (NOTW) :lol: and obviously from any columnist- after events (duh).

    RK has a 50/50 in hits/miss. I’m afraid he said a few years ago that Mrs. Middleton was to have tea with Her Majesty in Ascot.

    I think it’s all a very tricky thing. Most likely one of the staff members gave RK the little scoop on the William & Kate date. This kind of thing happens to many well known people. Sometimes the staff go into great detail and talk about when the famous people arrived, ate, emotions etc. Don’t seem like William & Kate cared about who saw them and who reported it.

    True, the Queen and Prince Philip where sighted in the theatre…and where tweeted (twitter). To many people at the theatre – end where ovations to HM.

    Prince Harry was tweeted with a gorilla costume at a rock concert, which ended up to be true – youtube video of the concert.

    Kate Middleton, someone initially tweeted that she was seen in a marketing event, all very exited about being very close to her. Result was it was true, the marketing company had made a video, photos appeared later on.

    my point was i was throwing out a theory whether it was plausible or not is another story!

    I wanted to hear other peoples take on the reasons why the story and who it was from …

    I wasn’t t looking to confirm a Jecca rumour if that is what you are implying Me

  • Katharine

    Really?, it is possible that it was a tip from William’s camp to make it clear that they’re doing just fine. On the other hand, maybe it was just a simple night out and there’s nothing more to it. I tend to go with the simpler version since we saw them recently at the Starlight event and we KNOW they’re doing just fine. ;)

    Hello,

    Oups, I just received the answer from the restaurant and finally my reservation is ok (because I’m coming to london this week-end). I’ll tell you on sunday evening when I’m back about the restaurant. Here is the answer from the resto… If you want me to transfer to your address email to check if this is true, no problem (see the administrator to have my addresse email and send me an email, I’ll respond to you this evening, because at the moment I’m at work and my address mail is different.)

    Gilmour’s [info@gilmoursparkwalk.com]
    Hello there,
    I am pleased to confirmed your table for 3 on Friday on 9pm.

    Excuse me Me ? What are you trying to start here?

    It would seem that you have an opinion rather than a theory and I was asking for theories!

    I suppose you have the right to your opinion

    |But ‘the ehory over the window’ is a bit harsh

  • Me
    October 20th, 2009 08:45

    A bit harsh because some thought it difficult to make a reservation at Gilmore’s? Please!

    Reality, facts, check mark shouldn’t hurt anyone. It all comes down to being in planet earth when someone may prove the above point. Rosaprune enjoy the dinner evening, not bad at all – in 24 hours you made the reservation. I hope you enjoy your stay in London.

    It’s not difficult to come down from a soapbox when a theory is disproved. When I am corrected, I don’t jump over the cuckoos nest. A simple thank you is good enough.

    Debating articles, carry on with the theories, I have nothing against it (them).

    I do believe it is possible that there is a very subtle campaign( ok, so maybe it is not so subtle) to show William and Kate as a mature couple by leaking these stories about the dinners out. I mean they wentfrom being seen skiing and clubbing to attending society weddings,going to cinema and quiet dinners, not to mention the joint appearance at the Starlight event. Something may be afoot. We’ll have to see.

    Good Morning All,

    Lisa I just got through watching Good Morning America’s special on Balmoral Castle and that is one beautiful place. They did try to explain why we all get excited when William & Kate go to Balmoral and that’s in the link you provided. I have to agree with the person who left a comment on the site, I was too disappointed that we didn’t get more views inside Balmoral. We just saw the ballroom and outside view but nothing else. Although I’m surprised the Queen let any cameras in the private royal residence, I wanted to see more. It was also nice to know that Charles is at Birkhall.

    More behind the scenes of Balmoral:

    I guess next time she will let GMA cameras inside Sandringham, now that’s a place I want to see.

    Lisa, thanks for that link.

    Everyone watch out for a documentary about Balmoral, which the BBC produced. Its very good and you may get to see it on BBC World.

    Intresting comments as always Ked.

    Meanwhile, did anyone check out the menu for Gilmour’s. Roast Pork with sloe gin..Mmmmm! :lol:
