Prince Harry won’t return to Afghanistan frontline

Monday, November 30th, 2009

Prince HarryPrince Harry will not be returning to frontline duty in Afghanistan, according to reports.

The News of the World claimed that Taliban infiltration of the Afghan police force would make it impossible to keep Prince Harrry’s presence a secret, putting him and his comrades in danger.

The paper said that one military source said: “Getting Harry back on the front line is certainly not a priority right now. The situation there is extremely volatile and an operation involving the third in line to the throne would require a lot of planning and secrecy.”

Another high-ranking Whitehall source said: “The negatives of his redeployment far outway the positives. It is not on the agenda.”

Chelsy to Tour World, Harry kisses Bloke for Beer

Sunday, November 15th, 2009

Chelsy DavyKatie Nicholl reckons that Chelsy Davy will put her legal training on hold for a year while she tours Asia and Australia…

Prince Harry’s Zimbabwean girlfriend had been due to start a traineeship with top London law firm Allen and Overy but she has deferred until September 2010 as she has been given a bursary to travel the world.

‘She and Harry plan to go to South Africa for the New Year and they are hoping to be able to get to Lesotho.’ Sources say the couple, who have only just rekindled their on-off five-year relationship, plan to stay together while Chelsy embarks on her travels.

Harry is keen for Chelsy to socialise with her group of friends and to not be constrained by Royal protocol. ‘That was the problem in their relationship before. Chelsy likes to be her own person and Harry realises and respects that.’

Meanwhile Prince Harry is also expanding his horizons… Harry has swapped a kiss on the cheek with another fella for a Stella Artois lager!

Male admirer Rocky Bennett got a smacker from Prince Harry in exchange for a little bottle. The starstruck 21-year-old made his cheeky move when he spotted the royal boozing in a club.

Ricky grinned: “I went up to him and told him I would love to buy him a drink – if he gave me a kiss, Harry just burst out laughing, threw his arms around me and kissed me on the left cheek. It was the best moment of my life. I just burst into tears, he’s so down to earth.”

Prince Harry and Chelsy Davy at Rugby

They have been remarkably coy about the rekindling of their romance. But it seems that Prince Harry and on-off girlfriend Chelsy Davy are slowly bringing their second-time-around relationship into the public eye.

The bashful couple braved the chill at the rugby this afternoon – but chose to sit apart during the first half for England’s defeat to Australia at Twickenham.

Harry, a keen sports fan, dressed in a blue beanie, a casual green jacket, black zip-up top and jeans while Chelsy wore a bright blue jumper, leather jacket and gold scarf. The pair have been spotted out together in the past few months as rumours grew in Royal circles that they were still in touch.

Hugo TaylorPrince Harry is apparently furious after Chelsy Davy was spotted getting friendly with reknowned playboy Hugo Taylor at a nightclub opening. Monsters & Critics reports

A source said: “Harry was furious when he heard Chelsy was with Hugo at Chinawhite. Hugo had told a number of pals that he’s got his eye on Chelsy, and as they are all in the same circle of friends it got straight back to Harry.”

Hugo is the new promoter of Chinawhite and is a well-known player who has been linked to Harry’s cousin, Princess Eugenie. The source added to Britain’s Daily Star newspaper: “On the night of the party Hugo doted on Chelsy. He made a beeline for her as soon as she arrived, and he bought her drinks for the whole night.

“The VIP area in the club is tiny, and she spent most of the night at his table, where they were chatting and dancing. Harry told pals he couldn’t believe Chelsy went to the club just to see Hugo. He isn’t at all happy about it.”

In May, Harry, 25, played in a polo match in New York which was attended by several famous figures, including Madonna and Jennifer Lopez. “It was a big success and raised a substantial six-figure sum” said one of his chums. “He is keen for his charity to build on that success. He was delighted with his reception.”
