Our favourite rogue royal Prince Harry turns 29 today and in true playboy fashion, he is expected to mark the milestone in style.
It’s Harry’s last year as a twenty-something but no official bash has been planned. Instead, he will mark the occasion privately with a carefully-chosen selection of discreet friends.
Given that Harry once partied so hard he ended up playing naked strip billiards with a woman he’d only just met, we can only imagine what he’ll get up to this weekend.
These pictures trace his transformation from tiny tot to Prince Charming.
