you do not need friends like this

 The person that took the photos of Harry then sent the photos around the world behind his back. As for the SUN well what would you expect from gutter press they have no respect for anyone they will publish anything to sell papers especially as the News of the World is no longer with us thank god. I think it will not bother Harry but the queen will not be happy you would have thought that a news paper that says it is patriotic would have not published knowing the queens feelings on the matter, some hope of that from the gutter press.

Re: you do not need friends like this

I wonder WHY Harry put himself in this situation in the first place,nude pool?...sounds fun but he is third in line to our throne and to my knowledge William never did that,he needs to realise that he is Royalty and act like he is instead of one of the lads because he is not one of the lads,his birth made sure of that,time he started to show some respect for what he is and stands for and stop putting himself in these positions because he must know his every move is being watched be it by press or other people,i wonder did HE think of the Queen when he did this?.

The press have always been waiting for chances like this and always will and the only way to stop them publishing stories like this is for the ones involved to start acting like grown adults instead of young kids and more so when your in line to the throne like Harry is.

I don't condole the actions of the person who took those photos and put them on the web,to me that was a violation of his privacy but he did not help himself by being so stupid in the first place,time happy Harry grew up and settled down like his brother and stop making a joke of the Royal Family,his actions will be watched and reported on no matter what and he should know that.....nude pool.....what next.

I make mistakes i am only human well half the time.

Did you never go skinny dipping or play strip poker when you were a kid or a young ummarried man because I  know I did I have stripped off quick on a crowded beach rather than struggle with a bloody towel much to MY wifes embarressment but then I am not royalty . He is a young man and should be able to do what young men do without having it plastered on the front page of a rag that says it waves the flag bu*lshi* They were asked not to publish but they went a head as usual He does a fair bit of work for his country one way or another he should be able to have a bit of priviicy and time to himself. I can remember when his father was reported in the press for having a cherry brandy in a out of the way pub . If that is all that is going on in the news I do not think we have much to worry about do you.

 I like Harry.....wasn't too keen on him a few years back during the gestapo swastika episode and one or two more unsavoury escapades he has had....but I do think he is a good person......BUT.......

.....he is a very priveleged human being.....he knows the score with the press and he knows the score with everything else about life in the Royalty....so to allow this to happen was very careless of him......I think he has only himself to blame....he often brings embarrassment on the Royal Family through his love of "normal" activities.....

He simply needs to remember that he is NOT a normal person and therefore it is dangerous for him to engage in normal activities. His priveleges and riches have been GIVEN to him....he didn't earn them nor has he any right to them in any way... other than being born in the Royal Family.

He needs to be more aware and more grateful for his immense fame and wealth that allows him luxuries that the rest of us can only dream about......and in return for all this, all he has to do......is behave himself.

....not a lot to ask for ......is it??

YOU DO NOT NEED FRIENDS LIKE THIIS

 Grateful my arse he needs to pick his so called friends very carefully if whoever it was had not put him in the frame we would be none the wiser . If you think being a royal is a privilege your wrong it is a curse you only have to look at the lives of royalty in our lifetime let alone before .His life is not his own and this shows just that. Any ordinary young man it would not matter a fig and nobody would give a monkey Get off the mans back.

 Queenie won't be amused but it tickled me, good on him. It's about time there was a true black sheep in the family. He knows he will never be king so he's out to enjoy himself. Carry on Harry we wait your next frolickings.

Re: you do not need friends like this

Sorry Greg but he is in line for the throne and he should act like he is instead of doing stupid things like this,i have no doubts that he serves his country well and he should be left alone from time to time but like it or not he is a prince and he gets lots of Privileges that we ordinary folk don't get just because he is a Prince,i don't begrudge him that by any means but he is being stupid by doing things like this,Dark sheep he maybe but don't you think he has a duty to the Royal Family to act like a adult instead of playing ....nude pool...time he settled down and thought about what is actions might bring instead of saying ...i never gave it a thought at the time...he is putting himself in a very unsecured position and making the Royal Family a laughing stock in the process,it is not the press that needs slapping down but Harry himself.

I make mistakes i am only human well half the time.

Re: you do not need friends like this

I think Harry was incredibly stupid. He should not put himself in these sort of situations. He is ignoring one of the most basic rules of being a celebrity. In fact he is more than a celebrity. In a sense he represents both the Royal Family and to some extent the country. I'd be curious to know who is in his entourage. Also, what's the issue of an unknown female they met in a bar. That has major danger potential.

Agree, the "friend" is no friend.

Sometimes Greg ....you do talk a load of horsesh*t buddy......

What was that you said the other day about.......

"There is none so blind as those who won't see" (Quote)........? Well, you should practice what you preach mate.

A curse......wherever do you get them from ?......if his life's a curse, can I have one please.

Being born in Ethiopia, Biafra, Senegal and the Sudan is a curse.....they only eat once a week....and drink disease infested water most of the time................that is what you call a curse...........you need to get a reality check Greg.

Of course his life's not his own.........that is the deal for all Royals, he gets a lorry load of money and very special priveleges for doing sweet FA........and he works the rest of his life for us!!

What do you expect?.....give him all that money and priveleges that includes meeting and socialising with all the great statesmen and women of the world...... so he can get his nags away at every opportunity without even the slightest hint of discretion or diplomacy...So he can get pis*ed out of his brains without the slightest hint of discretion and diplomacy......so it can be publicised all over the world that Britain has got a brainless tw*t as a Prince and 3rd in line to the throne....and then expect nobody to notice.........sorry mate, it doesn't work quite like that.

Open your eyes Greg..........

......with great power, fame and fortune............comes great responsibility.

....and especially when he's got it for free.....

TBH and IMO,yes he should have thought of any consequences, but as a single young man out for the night in mixed company, a few drinks and the brains and blood leave the head and travel south, and once the rabbit is rampant....................  as far as what other Countries may think of Harry or the UK,who given a sh** what they think, most already have no respect anyway, so no change there then, and I will not lose any sleep. It will be forgotten by next week and at least he's given  millions of people something else to talk about instead of the recession.
