Prince Harry had an adventurous love life, before eventually settling down in May 2018. Before his marriage with Meghan Markle, our favorite ginger royal gave quite a lot of headliners, which weren’t too pleasant for the royal family to handle. Let’s take a look at Prince Harry’s dating past.
Prince Harry was photographed in 2012, during his time in Vegas, naked with several women. He was playing ‘’strip pool’’, and in some of the pictures, he was hugging a nude young woman.
The palace had “no comment to make on the photos at this time.” But that wasn’t the case with one of the young girls who attended the event. Carrie Reichert said she got a “random” invite from a member of the prince’s crew to come party with them in his penthouse. When she and about ten other girls came, Harry was supposedly already nude, drunk, looking “delirious,” and urging everyone else to strip. Reichert declares she made out with Harry for “15 to 20 minutes.”
After several months, Harry finally decided to comment on the issue. “It was probably a classic example of me probably being too much army and not enough prince,” Harry said, continuing, “But at the end of the day I was in a private area and there should have been a certain amount of privacy, that one should expect.”
Kate Middleton’s sister was rumored to be the future wife of Harry when they were spotted going out for a cup of tea. Harry addressed the rumors during the Hard Rock Calling concert in Hyde Park, “Pippa? Ha! No, I am not seeing anyone at the moment. I’m 100 percent single.”
Chelsy Davy was the closest one to ever get to that royal ring (we are talking about a pre-Meghan Markle era) than any of his romances. They were together for seven years, She even accompanied Harry to numerous royal events, such as the 2007 Concert for Diana and “the wedding of Harry’s cousin Peter Phillips to Autumn Kelly,” which was “her debut at a royal function,” as stated by People magazine.
About the reasons behind their break-up, Davy blamed it on the paparazzi and the public scrutiny. “It was so full-on: crazy and scary and uncomfortable. I found it very difficult when it was bad. I couldn’t cope. I was young, I was trying to be a normal kid and it was horrible.”
Even though she might not be Harry’s love interest (nobody ever confirmed it) TV presenter Natalie Pinkham was a center of a lot of gossips. The biggest scandal that occurred was a picture of Harry holding her breast and kissing her on the cheek surfaced in The Sun. Insiders close to Pinkham claimed to the Daily Mail that she and Harry had always just been close friends and nothing more. Pinkham herself shared with the outlet, “I never wanted to be a dolly bird. I find fame by association so cringeworthy. If I’m going to do well, I want it to be down to me.”
The Real Housewives of D.C. star Catherine Ommanney told the Daily Mail that she had a romantic encounter with Harry in 2006. “He was holding me off the floor, kissing me. I was absolutely speechless,” she claimed.
After partying all night, Harry supposedly rushed Harbord back to Clarence House, which is Prince Charles’. The most interesting part is that Harry had allegedly spent the weekend before hanging out with Davy.
Another rumor was revolving around the X Factor host Caroline Flack. The rumors started after they were seen together in public for the first time, but Flack said that they were just friends, who were introduced through mutual friends, like Pinkham. “I was no longer Caroline Flack, TV presenter, I was Caroline Flack, Prince Harry’s bit of rough,” she wrote in her autobiography. “The thing about Prince Harry is that he has no choice. He’s not some egotistical rock star who wants loads of attention. That is his life. He didn’t ask for it, he just has to deal with it.”
Cassie Sumner shared her story about when Harry was 19 years old, he spent the earlier portion of his evening at London’s Chyna White club “kissing and cuddling” model Lauren Pope, and afterward, when she left, Harry supposedly went on Sumner, guiding her to his “private table.”
“He seemed fascinated with my breasts, because he spent more time looking at them than he did my face when we talked,” Sumner shared with The Mirror. “When I told Harry I was a model his eyes lit up and he ordered a round of Sex On The Beach cocktails.” Sumner claimed that the teenage prince ran his hands “up and down the inside” of her thighs, as well as “nuzzled” her earlobes and offered her to leave the club with him. Sumner insists she refused. “If I’m honest I didn’t really fancy Harry,” she said. “I prefer more muscles on a man. But he came across as a lovely lad who was just enjoying a normal night out like any red-blooded single 19-year-old.”
Harry and actress Cressida Bonas dated for 2 years, before ending their relationship in 2014. An insider shared at the time, “They’re off, but I don’t think it’s for good. They hit a rocky patch and this decision is the result of that. Harry is the type to want to take breathers and then try again.”
Bonas said about the relationship in a 2017 interview in The Observer, that having her life “defined by a much more famous man,” was ‘’incredibly frustrating, especially in the industry that I’m in, but it is the way it is.”
Author Ingrid Seward shared with the Daily Mail, “She just said it was awful because every time she walked down the street she could hear people criticizing her. They would whip out their phones and take photos of her. They’d say ‘Oh look at her hair. Oh look at her clothes, look at her boots, she hasn’t got her laces done up.’ I mean this is just a normal, pretty girl and she just couldn’t take it. She just thought ‘Why are they getting at me?'”
At last, but not least, Meghan Markle. In a November 2017 interview with Radio 4’s Today, Suits creator Aaron Korsh confessed that he wrote Markle off of the show when he realized how serious she was getting with Harry.
“I knew from a year ago that this relationship was burgeoning, and I had a decision to make because I didn’t want to intrude and ask her, ‘Hey what’s going on and what are you going to do?'” Korsh said. “So collectively with the writers, we decided to take a gamble that these two people were in love and it was going to work out…which would likely mean her leaving the show.” And so they wrote her off, citing the fact that it was “much easier to undo that if it came to it than to just plan on her staying forever and then finding out she’s going to go.”
Regarding the story about how Prince Harry cost her the job, Markle said the Sky News, “I don’t see it as giving anything up. I just see it as a change… We were very, very fortunate to have that sort of longevity on a series… I’ve ticked this box, and I feel very proud of the work I’ve done there, and now it’s time to work with [Harry] as a team.”
