Prince Harry has gotten a lot of attention for the color of his hair ever since he first appeared in the arms of his mother, Princess Diana. So when he spotted a sign reading "Red Heads RULE!" on the opening day of his four-week trip to Australia Monday, he was naturally keen to seek out its owner.  "He said that I was fabulous in making the sign and it's awesome to be a redhead," Ethan Toscan, 12, told Nine Network in Australia. "He was just like, 'Being a redhead just has to be the No. 1 thing one person can ever be.' " Prince Harry, or Captain Wales as he will be officially known during his month long stay in Australia, flew the flag for redheads everywhere when he glimpsed 12-year-old Ethan Toscan and his "red heads rule!" sign across the forecourt of the Australian War Memorial and dodged the drizzle to find out more.  "He asked me why did I make the sign," Ethan said afterwards which, given his ginger thatch, might have been more of a rhetorical question. "It was just a pleasure to shake Prince Harry's hand. He was just like 'Being a red head is the number one thing a person can ever be."Ten-year-old Talon Cass-Dunbar, similarly redheaded and standing near the sign, agreed the ranga royal did seem like a very nice person, although he confessed he had actually just come to the War Memorial to see an exhibition.  A 1500-strong crowd gathered outside the War Memorial for a glimpse of the Prince and offered effusive cheers when the white-clad royal emerged from a tour of the Afghanistan and World War I galleries to shake hands, offer pleasantries and endure endless requests for selfies. The Monday morning visit was Prince Harry's only public engagement during his time in Australia, which he will spend training with the elite special forces, the SAS, in Perth and at bases in Darwin and Sydney. He will also travel to Gallipoli for the Anzac centenary.  Before beginning his time with the Defence Force, Prince Harry was required to have his credentials checked at the Royal Military College, Duntroon. While he was there he presented a message from his grandmother, Her Majesty the Queen, to Air Chief Marshal Binskin. "I am delighted that the long and enduring association between the Australian and British Armies will be joined by the military secondment of my grandson, Prince Harry," the message said.  |

Wait, isn’t Prince Harry supposed to be the party-all-the-time, anything-goes royal? Well, it seems that he’s turned over a new leaf since cameras caught him scolding a young Australian fan over her fondness of selfies.  His response to her request: I hate selfies. … Seriously … I know you’re young, but selfies are bad. Just take a normal photograph!  Ouch! Hey, Harry, that’s rich coming from someone who played strip poker in a Las Vegas hotel room full of camera-phones. Just saying.  However, after making this very important, very serious PSA, he totally ate his words and hammed it up for the camera. You can't tell us that selfies are overplayed and then make faces like this, buddy:  |

It's the ultimate dream of many a young girl: to live happily ever after with a dashing prince. Yet for Cressida Bonas, the reality didn't quite match up to the fairy tale. Talking to U.K.'s The Sunday Times, the 26-year-old says that she only survived the press whirlwind surrounding her relationship with Prince Harry by keeping her feet on the ground and remaining true to who she is.  "It's really important to remember that all of it is noise, noise that can be very loud at times," Bonas tells the paper. She adds: "I'm a lion. I'm not tough, but I am strong. I'm definitely not a wallflower." Since she split from Harry, 30, a year ago, Bonas has been far too busy concentrating on her career to worry about the press, anyway.  Along with scoring an enviable fashion gig with Mulberry and a role in the movie Tulip Fever alongside Judi Dench, Bonas has just finished playing Cecily in The Importance of Being Ernest onstage and scored her first Vogue cover shoot. Despite her surging profile, Bonas says she tries to keep things in perspective. "But if I ever feel like, 'Oh, my life!' or get upset by silly things like a photographer, or if someone has written something nasty that's upset me, I just think, 'Worse things happen at sea.' "  For the record, Bonas claims that the only details the British press have gotten right about her is that she is a qualified ski instructor and that she is now single. "I'm a strong, independent woman," she says, while debunking rumors that she's spent long, cozy evenings with Harry in Kensington Palace watching The West Wing. "Never seen it," she says about the show.  As for the best advice anyone has given her? Well, that came from her mother. "Be true to yourself and do whatever makes you happy," says Cressida. "If you're not happy, then stop. There's no point in carrying on." |

 He is one of the most famous men in the world but to locals in the remote Aboriginal community of Wuggubun Prince Harry is "just a nice bloke". The popular Prince made a surprise visit yesterday to the tiny community, 65km from Kununurra in WA's far north, creating a stir among its 25 residents. "We weren't expecting it at all. It was just a usual day and then about seven cars just rocked up out of nowhere with a couple of army vehicles. It was amazing," local resident Shaun Cox said. Mr Cox said a relaxed, friendly Prince Harry spent about 90 minutes chatting to residents and asking questions about the community before visiting a nearby creek and kicking a football.  "He asked how many people live out here and how we run things, and he was playing with all of the kids, picking them up and posing for photos," he said. "I think the younger ones didn't really realise who he was, though." The top-secret visit soon became the talk of the Kimberley.  Mr Cox, who took dozens of photos of his friends and family with Prince Harry, quickly went into Kununurra to have them developed. "You got to show them off. It's not every day you get to see a prince," he said. Rumours Prince Harry was in the Kimberley began circulating on Tuesday when a Royal Australian Air Force plane was spotted at Kununurra Airport. It is understood the fourth, soon-to-be fifth, in line to the British throne was guided around the region by local NORFORCE army reservists. |

 She may no longer be dating a prince, but Chelsy Davy appears to be living the life of a princess. The Zimbabwean beauty was spotted on popular King's Road, in the London district of Chelsea, on Saturday, where she enjoyed a day of pampering and running casual errands with her close pal, Lady Melissa Percy. Blonde Chelsy, ex-girlfriend of Prince Harry, showed off her svelte frame in blue skinny jeans and a black tank top under a taupe jacket as she got her blonde tresses spruced up at a hair salon.  Following her hairdressing appointment, Chelsy and her pal meandered through the streets of west London as they chatted in a jovial fashion. As they prepared to go their separate ways, the ladies stopped for a long talk before saying their goodbyes. Chelsy was then seen making her way to her local dry cleaner, which she picked up some items of clothing. The blonde beauty's casual day out comes several weeks after she was spotted at the annual L'Ormarins Queen's Plate in Cape Town, South Africa. The stunner added a touch of glamour to the prestigious riding event in a cobalt dress, in accordance with the blue-and-white dress code.  |
