Confession: I Miss Prince Harry

Prince Harry is not even halfway through his deployment yet and I am already missing regular updates from @HWalesWatch. And no, I am not counting the stories on his Vegas party companion getting thrown in jail or Harry’s Pippa filled storytime at Camp Bastion as news.

Okay, if I’m being honest I mostly miss the white pants and sharp navy blue suits..

To cope with Prince Hottie withdrawals, I decided to reflect on the top ten reasons to love the 28-year-old royal…in no particular order.

1. He is currently fighting for his country in Afghanistan..flying deadly helicopters. He could have used his title to get thrown on a desk job back in the UK, but no.. Captain Wales wanted to be out on the front lines with his men, shooting down bad guys. HOT.

2. Not only is he good with kids, but he devotes a lot of his time to being there for children in need. Oh, and let’s not forget looking after the bridesmaids and page boys during the royal wedding – don’t forget to wave kids!

3. He is charitable. Not just sit behind a desk and donate tons of money charitable – he gets out there and he fights for the causes he believes in. He trekked to the North Pole with Walking With The Wounded. He established his own charity, Sentebale, aiming to positively change the the lives of vulnerable children in Lesotho.

4. He knows how to have a good time. Don’t think this one needs further explanation.

5. Harry has an edge. Motorcycles, breaking the royal rules of engagement, partying like there’s no tomorrow..c’mon ladies, you all know you like a bad boy.

6. In case you needed a reminder – he is a PRINCE. Of course that is not a reason to love someone, but let’s be honest.. it’s a factor.

7. The name ‘Prince Hottie’ did not appear out of thin air.. he’s the best looking redhead on the planet.

8. His sporting prowess is not limited to rocking white pants on the polo field. Aside from being an all-star polo player, he enjoys rugby, futbol..he’s even gotten down and dirty on the volleyball court. Although he could use some help with basketball.

9. The “H” in Harry probably stands for hysterical. From messing with the paparazzi on his first day of kindergarten “Dude of Cambridge” joke at his brother’s wedding, H could double for a stand-up comedian.

10. The youngest son of Prince Charles and Princess Diana is a family man. His bond with brother, Prince William, is beyond adorable and he immediately accepted Kate as if she were his actual sister.

Here’s hoping Captain Wales is off kicking some serious Taliban tail in Afghanistan.. we all look forward to an influx of white pants and parties upon his return.

Do you miss your daily dose of Harry? What do you love most about the prince? Leave some comments!

Happy Birthday Prince Harry!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY FAVORITE ROYAL! 

Twenty-eight years ago today, Prince Charles and Princess Diana welcomed Prince Henry Charles Albert David into the world at 4:20 p.m. at St Mary’s Hospital in Central London. Weighing in at 6lb 14oz, the red-headed baby prince (better known to all of us as “Harry”) became the cutest thing in Britain and not much has changed since.

Although Prince Hottie has been known to throw down at wild parties over the years, he is spending his 28th birthday in a completely different world – fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan. Today marks the Apache helicopter pilot’s second full week on his second tour of duty and instead of tequila shots and a bevy of blondes, Captain Wales rang in his birthday with an horrific attack on his base, Camp Bastion. The Taliban has claimed the violent attack, which killed two U.S. Marines, was aimed at the birthday boy.

So for your 28th birthday, Prince Harry, I send wishes of safety and pray that you return to home to the UK in four months completely unharmed. Oh, and shoot down some bad guys..like, a lot of them.
