Duke to make life altering career decision at end of 2012

William will be forced to make a monumental career decision between the RAF and his royal duties come the end of 2012, confirms an aide of the Duke of Cambridge to British media sources.

In his final verdict, The Duke will take into account the time his royal duties, family duties, and charity work will consume in the coming years.

William has a number career options moving forward, according to The Daily Mail:

  1. He could continue his work in the RAF Valley or relocate to another RAF base for a second three-year stint of duty.
  2.  He could take another post in the armed forces and, therefore, create more time for royal duties and his wife.
  3.  finally, he could give up the military life altogether, to focus on his charity and royal and family duties.

One source spoke to the Daily Mail:

Search and rescue has given the Prince an exciting job without putting him on the front line – but he is bound to a shift timetable. There are advantages of him transferring to the Army – one being that he would likely be able to take on more official duties.

William is thinking deep and hard about his future, adds the source. He loves the service, but there are other things to take into account. He and Catherine have a future and a family to plan and he will be expected to take on more official engagements.

Prince Harry: His fling with Saturday’s Mollie King

I should comment upon Saturday’s singer Mollie King— or rather explain why I haven’t reported about her and Prince Harry‘s rumored relationship.

Well, it seems to me that King is Harry’s stereotypical fling…

  • Harry picks out a girl that looks a bit similar to Chelsy Davy: tall, thin and blonde (think of his last brief relationship, Florence Brudenell-Bruce). Mollie fits right in with this description.

  • The Prince then has his fun with the girl— until she gets a bit too excited by the publicity that goes with dating a Prince. Both Florence and Mollie started having major success at work because of their associations with Harry, and neither one was shy with the paparazzi. In addition, Brudenell-Bruce and King had friends who were talking to the media…a big problem.

  • After a girl breaks the rules, this is the perfect time for Harry to put space between them… exactly as he did with both Brudenell-Bruce, and, now, according to various sources, King.

While Harry will need a girlfriend who can deal with the spotlight, he CLEARLY doesn’t want one who craves it, judging from his past relationships.

Chelsy Davy is the perfect example of a girl who doesn’t crave the spotlight. In effect, she was able to have a long relationship with the Prince.

As Harry prepares for deployment to Afghanistan and carries out a host of charitable royal duties, it isn’t likely we’ll see a serious girlfriend anytime soon, but rather a series of these ‘King’ and ‘Brudenell-Bruce’ style flings—unless, of course, Chelsy Davy suddenly decides she wants Harry back: “Harry’s texting ten girls at the moment, including his ex, Chelsy,” reports a source to the The Daily Mail. “—Mollie is one of them. Harry likes discreet girls and Mollie seems to be enjoying the publicity a bit too much.”

Last week, King famously took to her Twitter account to announce the status of her relationship with the Prince. And, even though it was to say that she and the Harry were not in a relationship, you can rest assured that just the mention of his name by her (on her own social site) was dynamite to any future they might have had together.

Harry’s night out: The Party Prince dances in the street outside Bunga Bunga Bar

Despite reports that Prince Harry has been told to tone down his social life and focus on his military career, it seems he’s not taken the advice (given by military personnel) to heart.

On Friday night, Harry took part in a marathon drinking session; he began the night at a Barts in Fulham, before continuing the evening at the Bunga Bunga Bar, run by a former Etonian, according to the Daily Mail.

A source told The Mail:

Harry decided he was up for a night out and started drinking at about 8 o’clock. He was pretty plastered by the end of the night and left Bunga Bunga at about 3.30 in the morning. They had been drinking cocktails and shots and Harry was in really good spirits. It was like he was in a world of his own. His friends were chatting on the pavement and Harry skipped into the road and did a little jive. It was hilarious to watch and he was really getting into it. He gave one of his mates a bear hug good night and then did a funny little jig to his chauffeur driven car.

Harry’s night culminated with a private lock-in until 3.30 am.

Earlier in the day, however, Harry was a picture perfect Prince— rigged out in a dapper suit to attend a a memorial service for the late Queen Mother and Princess Margaret at Windsor Castle. In tow were many members of the royal family, most notably The Queen.

The D.C. socialite Bash Kazi tumbled off his horse during the Sentebale Polo Cup in Brazil recently and Prince Harry, whose charity the match was benefiting, was the first man off his horse to help. Later, Kazi praised the Prince’s character, telling The Washington Post that Harry is a “fabulous person and such a gentleman.”

Prince Harry was the first one off his horse, doing the right thing, Kazi told The Post: “I remember waking up with these piercing blue eyes looking at me,” he said. Harry had immediately turned Kazi over to make sure he regained consciousness: “Harry was massaging his neck, making sure he was okay,” Ray Regan, a Washington polo enthusiast on the scene told The Washington Post.

The injured party was then taken away by ambulance with a slight concussion, but he rejoined the match later.

Kazi hopes to play polo with Harry again someday.

Prince Charming: Harry, the ideal balance of fun and formality

Prince Harry’s tour of the Caribbean has been going famously, and perhaps it’s because he has finally struck the right balance between fun and formality.

The Prince, known for his wild child ways, has been taking some advice from his brother, according to The Daily Telegraph: “The two Princes have been texting each other and talking on the phone throughout the past week,” a source told the news outlet, “with the Duke giving his younger sibling tips on how to strike the right balance….”

“He spoke at length to his brother before coming out, about how to approach it, and they have been in communication throughout the tour,” said the source. “They have been in touch regularly via mobile and text. The relationship they have full of banter and humour but Prince William is deeply caring of his younger brother and wants his younger brother succeed. He can advise him on how to mix the informality with the dignity of [representing] the Queen.”

Perhaps, the place where William’s advice was most crucial was upon Harry’s meeting with Portia Simpson Miller, the Prime Minister of Jamaica, who aims to remove the Queen as head of state.

Simpson Miller made negative commentary regarding Britain to the BBC just hours before she and the Prince sat down for lunch. It could have been a disastrous meeting, and especially for Harry who is a novice at handling these sorts of diplomatic situations. However, the Prince handled the situation with great finesse; he broke the ice by giving Simpson Miller a hug and kiss upon meeting her.

The two held hands and chatted as if they were the best of friends, not mere strangers: “he really wanted to do the best for his grandmother and for the three countries,” a source told the Telegraph.“What we have seen of Prince Harry is Prince Harry – he is just himself and he has got natural enthusiasm and energy and is someone whose character lends itself very well to this region. He has got a flexible approach to his work and he has got great empathy with people; it’s something he innately has, it’s not something that can be taught.”

Thursday morning, the Prince will attend a beach party at the Sandals Royal Caribbean resort in Montego Bay and later in the day he will depart for Brazil.

Prince Harry has trysts with model Florence Brudenell-Bruce


Prince Harry’s latest trysts involves lingerie model Florence Brudenell-Bruce, this has been confirmed by the Mail, the Telegraph, the Sun and many other British media sources.

However, word on the street is Harry has not been wining and dining her, he’s simply been visiting to her £2.5million home in Notting Hill, west London.

Rumors came to a head directly after Harry’s split with Chelsy Davy, so even if Miss. Bruce and the Prince are an item, this is a fallback relationship, meaning I’m not sure we can expect it to last a while.

Harry was quite smitten with Chelsy for quite a long time and I don’t think he’s already moved on.

“‘It’s very early days but Harry and Florence are an item,’ a royal source told the Sun. ‘She is a lot of fun, blonde and very good-looking. Harry really likes her.’”

In the past Harry has been connected to a bevy of not all together unintelligent blond beauties, but the only one who ever stuck was Chelsy.

Yesterday, when asked about her relationship with the Prince, Florence said to media “There’s not much to say.”

And, this could be true. If his dating history is any indication, this relationship will run its course in the next few months.

At the Hard Rock Calling Festival in London last weekend Harry announced to media “I am not seeing anyone at the moment. I’m 100 per cent single.”

Facts about Florence Brudenell-Bruce:
  • Nicknamed ‘Flee’ by her friends
  • The daughter of an Etonian, now a successful wine merchant
  • Ancestry links her to the Seventh Earl of Cardigan
