Prince Harry’s Ex-Girlfriend Surfaces As Royal Love Blossoms With Cressida Bonas
Prince Harry may be in the throes of a idyllic relationship with Cressida Bonas, a socialite, model, and dance student, but as with other Royal love stories a third wheel might be aiming to burst the bubble. Namely, Harry’s ex-girlfriend — Chelsy Davy.
Davy and Prince Harry dated on and off from 2004 to 2010 and were at one time considered capable of lasting the distance. But they split up, reportedly over Harry’s wandering eye and Chelsy’s decision to pursue a legal career back in her South African homeland.
Fast forward to now, Chelsy, 27, a trainee solicitor, is back in London. She’s also still blonde — Harry’s preferred type — and single after ending her brief romance with boyfriend Matthew Mills last month, Mail Online reports.
So while the world’s media are falling over Harry and Cressida’s ski-slope close-up in Verbier, Switzerland, is there any reason to think Chelsy might have any designs on getting her Prince back?
Not according to a report in The Telegraph, which states Davy was thrown a “Get the f*** out of London already’ leaving party by her friends at a London club on Friday night. The paper quotes a source as saying,”Chelsy is moving abroad, indefinitely.”
Currently, the grapevine is in state of anticipation about whether or not Harry and Cressida will turn up as a couple at Virgin Group boss Sir Richard Branson’s Ulusaba private Game Reserve in South Africa next week.
The occasion? Branson’s son, documentary producer, Sam Branson, 28, is set to tie the knot to Isabella Anstruther-Gough-Calthorpe, 32, who just happens to be Cressida’s half-sister.
Isabella and Cressida share the same mother — Lady Mary Gaye Curzon — who is a descendant of King Charles II no less.
For more blue-blooded six degrees of separation, Isabella was also a guest at Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding in April 2011, and was previously rumored to have caught the second-in-line-to-the throne’s eye back in the day.
Prince Harry, who is currently on leave for five weeks before he returns to Afghanistan, will be in Lesotho and Johannesburg from Monday for official engagements on behalf of his charity Sentebale which helps Aids sufferers.
The Prince who is expected at the Branson wedding in his own right as a family friend, would also find a familiar ground with his cousins Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie who are attending as good friends of Sam and his sister Holly.
Harry, who has been casually dating Cressida since May 2012, is also rumored to be meeting Cressida’s parents during his visit to South Africa, The Telegraph reports.
