Prince Harry Coming Stateside
Written by Violet on May 15, 2009 – 8:32 pm -
New York City will get to host Prince Harry’s first formal engagment outside of Great Britian. He will visit The World Trade Center Ground Zero site and be part of the ceremony for the British Memorial Garden, remembering the victims of british descent who died on September 11, 2001.
He will take part in a polo match to help raise funds for his charity, Sentebale, which he started several years ago with Prince Seeiso of Lesotho. The two princes will spend time at the Harlem’s Children Zone.
The royal hasn’t been in the US since the death of his mother, Princess Diana.

Princess Eugenie & Friend Mugged in Cambodia
Written by Violet on May 4, 2009 – 6:45 am -
Travelling in Cambodia while on her gap year, Princess Eugenie (6th in line to the British throne) and a friend were caught up by muggers as they strolled around the Phnom Phen, the country’s capital city. The thieves were wrestled to the ground by her protection detail: two bodygaurds who are part of Scotland Yard’s elite SO14 protection services. The 19 year old royal and pal were whisked away as the would be robbers started throwing rocks at the bodyguards and the protection officers did manage to get back the friend’s handbag. It is believed that the robbers did not know who she was and thought the girls were just normal backpackers travelling thru the city.
The Royal Protection Services bodyguards have not had to stop a direct threat to a royal in 10 years and the cost of providing around the clock safeguarding has come under scrutiny in Britian, especially for Princess Eugenie and her sister, Princess Beatrice, daughters of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson.

Prince Harry Splits From Chelsy Davy
Written by Violet on January 25, 2009 – 6:44 pm -
Britian’s Prince Harry and his girlfriend of 5 years, Chelsy Davy, have called an end to their relationship. The two spent time recently on a luxury vacation to try to rekindle the romance but apparently, it didn’t work.
A well-placed royal source close to the young prince told us: “Yes, they have split, they are not together. But they are still friendly and still amicable.
“They have been going out for five years and the relationship had run its course. This happens.”
Davy is looking forward to her career in law and Prince Harry is devoting more time to his career in the british military. The prince will have a tough time of it, no girlfriend and a ban on alcohol that comes with his piloting course.
The Throne Rangers (girls who just want to date/marry a prince) will be out in full force now.

Prince Harry In Trouble Again
Written by Violet on January 11, 2009 – 10:42 pm -
Britian’s Prince Harry has found himself in hot water again. This time, the wayward Prince has had a video from 2006 turn up and he is heard referring to another soldier using a racist slur.
[...]Harry referred to one colleague as “our little paki friend” — using a derogatory term for people of Pakistani origin.
It reported that he called another cadet — who was wearing a headscarf — a “raghead.” The newspaper said that the video was filmed by other cadets and supplied to the newspaper.
This is not the first time Prince Harry has been at the center of a racist row. In 2005 he was photographed wearing a uniform with a swastika armband for a costume party his friends were having.
The prince has issued an apology for his insensitivity and continues to try to become an elite army helicopter pilot. See the video here and tell us what you think of Prince Harry’s remarks.

Prince Harry Splurging On Chelsy Davy Vacation
Written by Violet on December 19, 2008 – 9:11 pm -
Rugged, red-headed royal Prince Harry is taking his girlfriend, Chelsy Davy, to the romantic island of Mauritius this New Years for a secluded getaway. The pair have not had a lot of time together as she is finishing working with a prestigious law firm this term and he has been with his army regiment. The Prince of Wales is reported to be spending some serious cash on this vacation.
They are booked into a junior suite in one of the island’s most luxurious hotels for eight nights and will wake up each morning to the sound of the crystal-clear Indian Ocean lapping on the sand outside their room.
Beautiful vacation for the two lovebirds.

Princes William and Harry Joining Posh Club
Written by Violet on December 8, 2008 – 10:10 pm -
My fave British randy royals, Prince William and Prince Harry have joined an exclusive, upper crust, posh gentlemen’s club in London. The two party princes have been keeping a low profile as far as dinking is concerned and now will be able to indulge in yet more privacy.
Are the watering holes they have been photographed coming in and out of now a thing of the past for these two emerging Royal Family members? They have both cut down on the visible partying this past year and have focused more on their military careers and on charity/royal duties. Expect to see more grown up, responsible ventures from the future king and his brother as they come into their own right and begin to take on more public duties for the british monarchy.
