Prince Harry has been seen taking a supposed “dead ringer” for ex-girlfriend Chelsy Davy back to his royal residence after a long night out, a report claims.
The 24-year-old prince, whose relationship with Davy ended last month, was said to be “all over” 27-year-old Astrid Harbord as they club-hopped around London on Friday night, British tabloid News of the World reports.
Harbord is an old friend of Kate Middleton, the long-time girlfriend of Harry’s brother Prince William.
Harry and Harbord were seen laughing together as they partied at exclusive venues including the Park Lane Hilton and Raffles nightclub, before taking a car back to Harry’s palatial Clarence House at about 3.15am.
No-one was seen leaving the tightly guarded residence for some hours, the newspaper reported.
The British media have seized on Harbord’s blonde hair and facial features to make inevitable comparisons to Davy.
A daughter of a wealthy publisher, Harbord and her sister were reportedly dubbed ‘The Hardcore Sisters’ at university because they loved to party, with Astrid once even boasting to a newspaper about her drinking ability.
“We’ll probably drink half a bottle of white wine a day in an average week, maybe more,” she was quoted as saying.
“We’re recovering at the moment after a huge drinking session in the K Bar for a friend’s 21st birthday party last night.”
Davy, the prince’s girlfriend of five years, dumped him last month after reportedly becoming “fed up” with his playboy antics. (via NineMSN)
