Prince Harry has followed in his mother's footsteps by meeting patients and staff at a hospital for people with HIV. The prince on Monday visited London's Mildmay Hospital, previously an AIDS hospice where Princess Diana met dying patients. Fundraising director Kerry Reeves-Kneip told Harry that his mother had visited 17 times before her death in 1997, helping to break down the stigma surrounding the disease. She said Diana made three public visits and more private ones, where she would meet patients, "take tea and cakes with the staff, and gossip. She gave a lot of comfort and love to the people here." Harry recalled how it had been "a huge deal" when Diana kissed an AIDS patient at the hospice.

Just days after Kensington Palace released a new photo of Prince William’s family, the palace has shared the touching photo from Prince Harry’s Christmas card. The photo shows the 31-year-old prince holding the hand of Tom Neil, a 95-year-old Wing Commander whom Prince Harry met back in September while honoring World War II Spitfire pilots on the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Britain.

Earlier this month, the media buzzed after the tabloid OK! magazine reported that Prince Harry and Pippa Middleton were dating. Now, the rumors around Harry’s dating life are getting even more ridiculous: the National Enquirer claims that Harry is dating Kitty Spencer -- his first cousin. Harry, 31, and Pippa, 32, are related through marriage: Harry’s brother, Prince William, is married to Pippa’s sister, Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge. However, Harry and Pippa aren’t blood related -- so the dating rumors, while probably not true, aren’t all that strange. Plenty of more reputable media than OK! have said that Harry and Pippa made a cute couple when they walked down the aisle together at the Royal Wedding in 2011. However, these new rumors seem to cross a line. Kitty’s father, Charles Spencer, and Harry’s mother, Princess Diana, are siblings -- making Harry and Kitty first cousins. But that doesn’t stop the National Enquirer. “Harry is nuts about Kitty,” said an alleged “royal insider” said. “He says she’s his idea of perfection. His eyes almost popped out of his head when he saw photos of her in a figure-flaunting bikini.” The National Enquirer writes that Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge is the only one preventing Harry and Kitty from dating. “Kate is very protective of Harry and only wants what’s best for him,” the source allegedly said. “Being on kissing terms with his first cousin certainly doesn’t make the list!"

When the barometer of men's sartorial appeal, GQ magazine, rated Prince Philip above Prince Harry in the style stakes it seemed to speak volumes about how style doesn't necessarily span the generations. Yes, Harry (31) is one of the most popular younger members of the royal family, but that doesn't mean he couldn't learn a thing or two about looking the part from his grandfather, who now finds himself a fashion icon at 94. Perhaps it all points to the fact that the definition of style isn't just about the labels on your clothes, but can often have more to do with how a man carries himself. It's something to do with confidence and being at ease in your own skin. Undoubtedly, too, Philip's time in the Navy has informed his views on always being well turned-out. Whether clad head to toe in country checks while hunting at Balmoral or exuding the old-school elegance of a bygone era in tails at a dinner ... Philip always looks immaculate.

Prince Harry is to make his first official visit to Nepal this spring, it's been announced. Harry has long wanted to visit Nepal, largely due to his admiration and respect for the Gurkha troops he served with in Afghanistan.
He is also keen to see how the country's rebuilding effort is progressing following the devastating earthquake in April last year.
Kensington Palace said in a statement: "The visit is being undertaken at the request of Her Majesty's Government and will be the first time Prince Harry has visited the country."
