Prince Harry’s outspoken speech on Aids and Poverty

Friday, July 3rd, 2009

Prince Harry has signalled his determination to follow in his late’s mother’s footsteps by making his first political speech on the issue of Aids and global poverty.Prince Harry

Speaking at a reception to mark the third anniversary of his charity, Sentebale, the prince said he ‘aspired’ to follow Princess Diana’s example in fighting for ‘the deprived and afflicted’.

Harry, who has until now shied away from public speaking, told friends beforehand that ‘my mother didn’t mince her words and nor will I’.

A source close to Harry said: ‘This was his most outspoken speech yet. While he knows he needs to get more experience under his belt before he can project himself on the global stage as she did, the one thing he learnt from her was the value of being blunt.’ ‘

He knows the only way to solve the crisis facing Lesotho at the moment is to be blunt about its problems and blunt about the solutions needed.’ (via Daily Mail)

‘We got on amazingly well and will keep in touch,’ Natasha said last week during the Evian-sponsored Hurlingham Tennis championships.

Meanwhile The Sun are reporting that Harry spent all night chatting to his ex, Chelsy Davy at a mutual friend’s party…

It was the first time they have been seen together since their five-year romance ended in January – and last night fellow partygoers said it was the biggest hint yet they could get back together.

One said: “It was great to see them together. They are clearly great friends and spent much of the evening locked in conversation. She was wearing a sexy black dress which was so low cut it left little to the imagination. And it was obvious that Harry couldn’t take his eyes off her.”

A source said: “Caroline started off the night watching her friend play a gig at a pub.  She was dancing away and knocked back several glasses of red wine with pals. Then she picked up a copy of The Sun and started reading aloud the coverage about her and Harry splitting up.” Caroline was clearly upset – and ranted to pals: ‘Chelsy Davy is a f****** irritating t***. In the flesh she is not even that pretty’.”

Prince Harry and Chelsy Davy in happier times

The Sun are reporting that Prince Harry has ended his fling with Caroline Flack and is looking to reunite with his ex, Chesly Davy…

The lovelorn Royal, 24, told a friend: “I lost the best thing that ever happened to me and I’m paying for it.” And he told Gladiators host Caroline, 29, she will never replace Chelsy, his first true love, according to Palace sources.

Earlier this month Harry contacted a pal in Cape Town, where Chelsy lives, to open his heart about their split in January after five years together. He said: “I don’t know when I’ll be in Cape Town again” – and made the admission that he had lost the best thing that ever happened to him.

A friend of Harry’s told the paper;

“Everybody makes it sound like Harry dumped Chelsy and he’s having a ball playing the field. But it is actually the other way around. Harry is taking it quite hard.”

“Chelsy’s friends think Harry would like to get back together with her. That’s why he’s telling her friends that he misses her and that she’s the best thing that ever happened to him. He’s trying to tell her that he messed up and wants her back because he can’t be without her. He’s definitely not over her.”
