Prince Harry on the hunt for new girlfriend

Get in line, ladies!

He’s one of the world’s most famous bachelors but if Prince Harry has his way, he won’t be single forever.

Scroll down for video

The redheaded royal has revealed he is on the lookout for a special lady to share his life with.

“At the moment my focus is very much on work,” he told The Sunday Times at the Invictus Games in Florida. “But if someone slips into my life then that’s absolutely fantastic.”

But Harry admits it’s hard to find a girlfriend, let alone a wife, when his privacy is so “incessantly” invaded by the press.

“If I talk to a girl, that person is then suddenly my wife, and people go knocking on her door,” he said. “If or when I do find a girlfriend, I will do my utmost … to ensure that me and her can get to a point where we’re actually comfortable with each other before the massive invasion that is inevitably going to happen into her privacy.”

It is believed that Harry’s only two serious relationships – with Chelsy Davy and Cressida Bonas – ended because the women couldn’t handle the fame and public scrutiny that came with the boyfriend.

Inside Kim Kardashian’s extravagant Mother’s Day celebrations

Kanye West sure knows how to make Kim Kardashian feel special!
Kim Kardashian, North West, Kanye West

Considering he hired out an entire baseball stadium to propose to the reality star back in 2013, the rapper isn’t the kind of person to let milestones pass by in a low-key fashion.

And it was no exception for Mother’s Day this past weekend.

On Sunday the mother of North West, two, and Saint West, five months, was surprised by her husband, who had organised a 12-piece orchestra to perform in their living room.

Taking to Snapchat, the 35-year-old captured the incredible moment.

Watch the amazing moment Kim is surprised by an orchestra in her living room in the player below. Post continues after the video…

Songs included It’s a Hard Knock Life and Tomorrow from the musical Annie, as well as the theme song from North’s favourite film, Frozen.

“Song selection by North,” Kim captioned her Snapchat.

If that wasn’t enough, the Famous hitmaker also treated his wife of nearly two years to a stunning floral bench fashioned out of pink roses.

Kanye wasn’t the only family member to wish Kim a happy Mother’s Day with her brother Rob taking to Instagram to pen an emotional post.

Kanye also gifted Kim with this stunning flower bench made out of pink roses.

“And HAPPY MAMAS DAY to another supermama. my Beautiful Sister Kim! You are one of the greatest mums of all ,,, I love you so much !!!,” Rob said on his Instagram page.

It’s a far cry from Rob’s infamous Instagram post when he compared Kim to the “b—- from Gone Girl” at the start of last year. But clearly the pair have come a long way since then.

It comes just days after the sock designer announced he was expecting his first child with fiancee Blac Chyna.

Although none of the Kardashians have publicly congratulated their estranged brother, he was in good spirits and also posted a special shout out to his wife-to-be.

“And last but not least happy mamas day to this beautiful Mama, I fell in Love with her immediately because of how great of a mum she is and now I’m looking forward to starting a Family with her ! Thank You Chy for everything you do for me,” the 29-year-old shared alongside a sweet snap of him and Chyna.

How to cook sweet potato

Learning how to cook sweet potato is not hard, and you'll never look back once you know!
how to cook sweet potato

If you think sweet potatoes are just like potatoes but orange, you are very mistaken, my friend. Sweet potatoes are a whole different beast, which are so much better for you than the humble spud.

Although many people know that sweet potato is more nutritionally dense than a normal potato, they still don’t know how to cook sweet potato to make the most of it.

Sweet potato has a super low glycemic index which make them fantastic for anyone watching their weight or diabetics, and as far as carbohydrates go they are a brilliant dietary choice.

Whether you steam or mash, roast or stir-fry once you know how to cook sweet potato you will want to throw it in everything.

This bright orange root-vegetable is packed with Vitamin A, C and B and unique phytonutrients. They are ranked amongst the highest level of beta-carotene in any food, so combined with the manganese, potassium and fibre it’s a bit of a hero vegetable.

To get the best out of the nutrients in a sweet potato you should eat it with a little fat to help the body absorb the goodness… luckily, natural yoghurt and butter make the sweet flesh all the more delicious.

To cook sweet potato as a simple side dish you can slice it through the middle lengthways and roast in a 180C oven. Drizzle the sweet potato with olive oil and season generously before popping into the oven for about 45 minutes or until the flesh is tender.

Serve with a generous dollop of yoghurt or butter and fresh herbs if desired.

The sweet yet savoury flesh works equally well with chives, coriander or parsley, or whichever herb is your favorite.

Sweet potatoes are easily mashed in with other vegetables. A fantastic wintery combination include parsnip, cauliflower and sweet potato which is delicious served with your favorite slow cooked stews or as your mash for bangers and mash. Be sure to add lashings of butter and season well.

I survived my suicide

The moment I hit freefall was an instant regret
Kevin Hines, suicide survivor

It was bleak day when Kevin Hines jumped from the Golden Gate Bridge, and the second he leapt to his fate, he regretted it he told PEOPLE.

“I said to myself, ‘What have I done, I don’t want to die, God please save me,’ ” recalls Hines, 34, of his attempted suicide September 2000. “The moment I hit freefall was an instant regret – I recognized that I made the greatest mistake in my life and I thought it was too late.”

Miraculously, Hines survived the fall. Hines has bipolar disorder, and now lives a balanced life using a combination of medication, therapy, and exercise as he travels the world sharing his story in a desire to help anyone else who may be feeling like the days are too bleak to continue.

“My goal is to try to instil hope in one individual,” Hines tells PEOPLE. “So that one individual says, ‘Maybe I can stay here, maybe there are tools to fight this.’ “

Hines went on write a book about his suicide attempt and recovery called Cracked, Not Broken: Surviving and Thriving After a Suicide Attempt and has helped dozens of people over the last 16 years.

Now, he is making a documentary entitled Suicide: The rippled effect featuring some of the people whose lives he has made worth living for.

On that fateful day, Hines crushed and shattered three vertebrae after the 220-foot fall, so even though he survived the fall, drowning became a very real likelihood.

“When I resurfaced and I was trying to stay afloat, I was thinking, ‘I am going to drown.’ As I was bobbing up and down in the water, I was saying, ‘I don’t want to die, God I made a mistake,’ ” he recalls.

He says a seal kept pushing him above water until the Coast Guard pulled him from the water. He then had surgery followed by psychiatric care – the first of seven in-patient stays to deal with his depression, paranoia and hallucinations.

Although he has gone on to live a full life and marry a woman he adores, Hines admits he still struggles with his mental health and he hopes that sharing his story will inspire others not to feel shame and to get help if they need it.

All the goss from the 2016 Logies after parties

Let's face it, the award ceremony is just a warm up for the after party!
Carrie Bickmore and Julia Morris

After the show it’s the after party… and boy did the Australian entertainment industry boogie the night away!

Following the 58th Annual TV Week Logie Awards in Melbourne on Sunday, stars and TV favourites kicked off their heels (literally in Carrie Bickmore’s case!) to enjoy the night that celebrates the best of local television.

After Waleed Aly’s victorious Gold Logie win, The Project crew were ready to have a good time.

The only people that rivalled TV golden trio, aka Waleed, Carrie and non-nominee Peter Helliar, had to be Today hosts Karl Stefanovic, Lisa Wilkinson and Sylvia Jeffreys… who according to their show’s tradition, partied from dusk to dawn before returning to our screens at the bright early broadcast time of 6am.

Onlookers tell Woman’s Day that actor James Stewart was a popular choice with the ladies! During the post-Logie celebrations James was also pictured bonding with his new Home and Away cast-mates, chatting away with them.

My Kitchen Rules favourite Colin Fassnidge hung out with fellow chef Karen Martini and according to our insiders were “inseparable all night.”

Click through to see all the highlights from when the cameras stopped rolling!

The evening’s MVPs Carrie Bickmore and Julia Morris were ready to salsa the night away.

Angela Bishop captured this moment of a very happy looking Carrie dominating the dance floor.

And she had good reason to be so happy… Winners are grinners and The Project team scrubbed up well with a Silver Logie for their show.

But it was Waleed Aly who was the night’s hero! Posing with now-a-fellow Gold Logie Winner Ray Meagher aka Alf Stewart. Gallery continues after the video!

Dannielynn looks just like Anna Nicole Smith

Dannielynn Birkhead’s resemblance to her late mother Anna Nicole Smith is uncanny.
Dannielynn and Larry Birkhead

It’s the annual pilgrimage she makes every year with her father right by her side.

And on Saturday, nine-year-old Dannielynn was once again joined by proud papa Larry Birkhead for the 142nd Kentucky Derby.

Standing tall next to her dad, the only daughter of Anna Nicole, who tragically died in 2007 from an accidental overdose, looked exactly like the reality TV star.

The mother-daughter duo both have the same sparkling blue eyes, beaming smile and blonde locks.

In a touching tribute, Dannielynn and Larry attend the Kentucky Derby every year as it is the event where Larry first met Anna Nicole back in 2004.

Just like mum! Dannielynn has an uncanny resemblance to the vivacious reality star, who sadly died in 2007.

Last year Larry spoke to Entertainment Tonight about raising Dannielynn in a time of social media.

The Kentucky local didn’t hold back when it came to acknowledging the Playboy pin-up lived a very colourful life, telling the entertainment show he is taking an honest approach with Anna Nicole’s legacy.

“There is YouTube these days and that stuff’s out there and my daughter likes to Google already and I’m trying to keep her from it,” Larry confessed.

“She’ll see things, you know, when she grows up, that not necessarily all true. Was [Anna Nicole] wild? Yeah, sure. But [she was] a great lady, and a great mum,” he insisted.

Watch Larry’s interview in the player below. Post continues after the video…

The buxom blonde first rose to prominence in 1994 when she married 89-year-old oil tycoon, J. Howard Marshall. She was just 26 at the time.

The billionaire passed away a year after their nuptials and a bitter feud between Anna Nicole and his family erupted over his vast inheritance.

She also won a legion of fans with her kooky E! reality show, aptly named The Anna Nicole Show, which ran from 2002-2004.

Larry and Dannielynn Birkhead

Proud father Larry takes his daughter to the Kentucky Derby every year to honour her late mother.

For Larry, 42, the memory of his one-time partner is still burning bright in Dannielynn.

“She reminds me so much of her mum and as she gets older, and her features are changing, it’s just like having a little miniature Anna Nicole running around in so many ways,” he explained to ET.

There’s no doubt Anna, pictured at the Derby in 2004, would have been so proud of her daughter.
