 Prince Harry—recently returned from his somewhat controversial trip to the Middle East—has now posed for a rare magazine cover, taking the cover of the 10th issue of Man of the World. (If Harry was going to pose for a magazine, it makes sense it would be called Man of the World—it would either be that or, like, Sensible Blazers Monthly, or Polo Stuff Magazine). Harry looks quite striking on the cover; this is definitely a more fashion-y snap of the royal than we are used to. (This also has us really, really jonesin’ for a full-on Kate Middleton fashion-mag editorial.) Harry also gave an interview to the magazine, in which he discussed his two military tours. He also reflected on the infamous 2012 pictures taken in a Las Vegas hotel room, which—in the unlikely scenario you don’t remember them—featured a naked Harry cavorting with fellow nude pals near a pool table. So, now that it’s been a few years, how does Harry feel about them now? “It was probably a classic case of me being too much Army and not enough prince,” he told the magazine. “It’s a simple case of that.”  “Too much army and not enough prince,” sounds like it could be a pop song lyric, no? It’s nice; almost poetic! And frankly, probably not a bad construct for the rest of us to keep in mind, going about our daily lives. A pregnant woman gets on the crowded subway, while you blithely scroll Instagram in your seat, unaware? Not enough prince! A dear friend asks you to drive her to the airport right as you’re about to binge-watch Transparent, so you lie and say you’re “out of town”? Too much army, you! More prince!! |

Prince Harry was reunited with his ex-girlfriend Chelsy Davy during a charity carol concert in London last night. Chelsy, who remains a close friend of Prince Harry, was pretty in a red jumper as she arrived for the service at St Luke's Church in Chelsea. There, she heard both Harry and William pay heartfelt tribute to their friend Henry van Straubenzee, who was killed in a car crash in 2002 aged just 18 years old.   Harry, who attended the Ludgrove prep school in Berkshire with Mr van Straubenzee, remembered his friend in an address made to an 800-strong congregation, which also included Pippa Middleton and Ellie Goulding. After describing van Straubenzee as 'a Polzeath surfing legend and ladies' man with whom we shared so many special memories', to much laughter, Harry continued: 'I'm sure you understand when I say most of those memories are not suitable for public consumption, let alone in the house of God.' The Duke of Cambridge struck a more sombre note, telling the congregation, who had gathered at St Luke's Parish Church in Chelsea, that 'we are here, of course, to remember Henry.' 'He was a friend to many people here and a very special friend to us, who we share so many happy childhood memories with. 'Henry would be amazed that his charity is giving so many children a chance in life. He certainly enjoyed his.' The service, which also included readings by author  Montefiore and historian Dan Snow, was rounded off by a performance from Goulding who sang Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas, at the request of Prince Harry. The surviving van Straubenzee brothers remain close friends with the two princes, with both attending the 2013 wedding of Thomas van Straubenzee. Chelsy Davy, who met the brothers while in a relationship with Prince Harry, is also a friend, as is Prince William's sister-in-law, Pippa Middleton.   |

He's not known for being fond of photographers but it seems Prince Harry does at least know his way around a camera - as the photos taken by the royal during a trip to Lesotho last week reveal. Among the touching shots taken by the 30-year-old is a black and white photo of a group of herd boys who attend a school run by his African charity Sentebale - all of whom happily strike a pose for his camera.  Another portrait, which was taken by the prince on a £729 Fuji X100 camera, shows another of the herd boys being educated by the charity staring silently into the lens, his face framed by a traditional straw hat. The photos were taken during a flying visit to Lesotho last week, which was undertaken on behalf of Harry's charity Sentebale. During the trip, he visited a number of projects being run by the charity, including the herd boy night school where the pictures were snapped.  Speaking about his passion for photography, Harry said: 'I have always enjoyed photography and the challenges that come with trying to capture the perfect shot, although privately I don't take many photos. The best photos I have are in my head - I have some very special memories, mostly from Africa.' 'These photos have been taken on a really good camera, the Fuji X100,' commented MailOnline picture editor, Paul Ashton. ' Prince Harry has made the most of the available light and his pictures are perfectly exposed. 'The shots of the children look particularly fun - they’re obviously very relaxed in his company.'  |

 Prince Harry was joined by Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie on Friday as a close family friend, Jamie Murray Wells, married his long-term girlfriend Lottie Fry in a gorgeous winter wedding. Wearing a three-piece suit with a pale yellow waistcoat and royal blue tie, dapper Harry spend time with young flower girls, who looked angelic in wings and floral head crowns. The traditional ceremony took place in Dorchester Abbey, in Oxfordshire, and joining the British royals were Ben Fogle and his wife, Marina.  Princess Beatrice wowed onlookers in a pale blue Carven coat, teamed with large black hat, while her sister, Eugenie, wore a charcoal dress with a wool coat and fascinator. Jamie is a close friend of Harry and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's and owns the multi-million pound online business, Glasses Direct, while Lottie is a successful barrister.  In 2009 Jamie was awarded a prestigious Queen's Award for his hard work in business, and he is also a volunteer mentor to aspiring entrepreneurs for the Prince's Trust. The jovial celebrations come just over a week after Harry returned to the UK following a quiet trip to Lesotho as part of his on-going work with his charity, Sentebale. The Prince's visit was timed to see the construction of the new Mamohato Children's Centre, which will support local children living with HIV, by providing them with healthcare and education.  Whilst there Harry took several personal photos which he then released publicly, revealing: "I have always enjoyed photography and the challenges that come with trying to capture the perfect shot, although privately I don't take many photos. "The best photos I have are in my head – I have some very special memories, mostly from Africa. "But on this visit, I had the time and opportunity to be on the other side of the camera and take some photos in the stunning country of Lesotho for my charity Sentebale." |

 Merry Christmas Eve—it may be getting cold outside, but thanks to Prince Harry, it sure got hot in one part of England... Wearing a yellow and black uniform and teal socks, the 30-year-old younger brother of Prince William flaunted his sexy, washboard stomach while playing in an annual holiday soccer match on Wednesday at the country estate of Queen Elizabeth II, the princes' grandmother, in Sandringham in Norfolk. This marked the second year in a row that Harry has taken part in the annual match. He and William both played in one last year, on opposite teams, and that game ended in a tie. The royals traditionally celebrate Christmas at the queen's Sandringham estate. William and his family, Kate and son Prince George, 1, have a home in nearby Anmer Hall. It was a wedding gift from the monarch and was recently renovated, under Kate's direction.  Kate, who is pregnant with her second child, William, George and Harry kicked off the holiday season last week, attending a pre-Christmas lunch at the monarch's main home, Buckingham Palace in London. Earlier this month, Harry spent several days in the kingdom of Lesotho in Africa, where he toured the site of a children's center that will provide support to kids living with HIV, a project of his charity, Sentebale, an organization he co-founded with the country's Prince Seeiso. He was photographed hanging out with children there, while wearing a hat. "It was really emotional watching them interact with each other," he was quoted as saying in a statement by the group. " Some really outgoing chatty kids, others slightly overwhelmed, but all with huge smiles."  |
