One of the girls who partied with Prince Harry in Las Vegas has sold/given away her “story” to one of the UK tabloids. The young woman is named Carrie Reichert, and she was actually born in England, although I think her parents are American and she considers herself American – you can see some photos of Carrie here, at The Mirror. Carrie was partying in Vegas with some girlfriends when she chanced upon Prince Harry – sort of. Long story short, they get wasted together (with about two dozen other people) and then they made out but it doesn’t seem like the royal p went in the commoner v. Harry sounds very drunk and kind of harmless here – it’s not the best portrait of a prince, but to give him some credit, he doesn’t sound like an a—hole, you know? He just seems like a really drunk dude. You can read the full piece here, and here are some highlights from Carrie’s story:
Carrie recognized Harry right away at The Wynn: “They were walking around and I knew exactly who he was. I was born in England and I’m pretty familiar with the royal family, but I didn’t know the guys he was with. I was the only one who knew who he was. Everybody else was like, ‘Who’s that?’ And I’m like, ‘Oh my God, that’s Prince Harry!’ It was pretty clear who he was.”
She was approached by someone in Harry’s entourage: “They said ‘Hey, would you like to party with Prince Harry?’ I’m not going to pass an opportunity to party with Prince Harry. At first you think it’s a line. People will say anything to get you to go anywhere in Vegas. There was a bunch of us, it wasn’t just me and my girlfriends, it was just random. They were just picking really pretty girls, about 10 of us.”
Hanging out in Harry’s VIP suite: “We all went up to this huge VIP high-roller suite, and went in and the music was going, alcohol was flowing. Harry was already undressed. It was just crazy. He looked actually delirious. There was a pool table and he was playing air guitar with pool sticks. He was screaming out, ‘Somebody get me a glove! I’m going to do a Michael Jackson impression!’ He would just randomly walk up to you and hug you. He was just really friendly and there were just really random naked hugs. It was funny.”
The naked girl in the photos: “I didn’t actually see them play the game but it was there and it was going on. I saw the girl, there was just a lot of hugging and maybe some kissing. Just a lot of laughing. It seemed like he was overbearing a little bit, and she was kind of shy and very timid. I didn’t catch her name as we were all drinking. She was an American girl. She was very slender, really cute and pretty, kind of shy and she also seemed really drunk. I saw her trip over a couple of times. But he was laughing and thought it was really funny. And there were pictures being taken. I didn’t take any personally.”
Harry was being encouraged by his entourage: “He was being egged on. They thought it was hilarious. It was just, ‘Oh, Harry! Go play some pool while you’re naked!’ and just egging him on like, ‘Go hug her’. It was happening in the living area. Where the gaming room was. They were holding each other, talking and kissing and stuff.” The naked girl whom Harry hugged has remained anonymous despite the pictures going global.
Harry was trying to get everyone naked: “There was billiards being played. Harry was being randomly funny, going from the billiards to the bedroom. He wasn’t the only one naked. There were girls naked. The guys were half dressed. It was not like an orgy going on, it was just sexy naked. It was like almost a game. He was trying to get everybody to get naked. That was the whole point of him being naked. Girls were getting naked, he was screaming out ‘Everybody get naked!’ Just randomly doing crazy stuff. He was pressing his body up against the window and saying ‘Look at me Vegas!’ because he’s got this huge window and of course you can see all of Vegas down the strip. Just pressing up against the window just like, ‘Look at me Vegas, these are the royal jewels’.”
Hanging out with Harry: “I introduced myself, and right away knew he was completely wasted, very intoxicated. I had to let him know I knew who he was, and that I was born in England and right away he was like ‘Oh my Gosh, that’s amazing! I can’t believe you’re here in Vegas, we could be related’. I have blue eyes and he was going on and on. And I was like ‘Ah! He likes me!’ He was happy-go-lucky, yeah, just going with the flow. He gave me a huge hug and I introduced myself, and yeah, the party’s going.”
Setting up the hookup: “We both walked back together, and he grabbed my hand and walked back toward his bedroom. I found my way back there with him. We were talking and we had found some similarities and some interests him and I had together. And I was interested of course. Yeah, I followed him back to his bedroom. He was fixated that we had something in common and we kept talking, I spent seven years of my childhood in England and it played a big part of my life, so we had lots to discuss. He said that he liked my eyes and was just going on and on about the military. He didn’t make too much sense. Then he grabbed my hand and we went back to his room. There was not very much talking at that time, his clothes were off. I had a bikini on. A string bikini. I had a party dress over that, and that came off. And I just had a bikini.”
The drunken fumble: “We kissed, he was naked at the time, and pretty open. It was a drunken fumble. It wasn’t romantic, just fun. He was a gentleman, but he was so wasted. The alcohol affected him. I was there for 15 to 20 minutes. We kissed for 15 to 20 minutes. I am sure somebody stumbled in as there were people going in and out of rooms all the time. We kissed again and he said ‘That was great’. He told me I was beautiful and gorgeous, which was sweet. Then we kind of nonchalantly returned to the party and kept drinking. We went back into the living area and I assumed people knew but everyone acted like nothing happened. A little bit after some girls passed out on seats, and I felt I needed to go back to my room so I did.”
Carrie doesn’t get why it’s a big deal: “I don’t understand what the big deal was. I understand he is royalty and his family looks on it harshly and as a royal you have to conduct yourself a certain way, but he was having fun. He should not be ashamed of the pictures. I feel sad he has to suffer people’s opinions but it will pass. It’s give-and-take when you go to Vegas, but unlike the saying, not everything you do stays in Vegas.”
It’s weird that Harry heard that Carrie was born in England and his first thought was, “OMG, we could be related,” right? Blame it on the alcohol, I suppose, although I’m not sure if this is a portrait of a man who was merely drunk. I’m not saying it’s cocaine… but there could have been another substance involved. It also sounds like Carrie was really aiming to hook up with Harry. Which… I ain’t mad. I would have done the same thing. First, I would have just gone up to his suite and partied with him – just because that’s a great story to have, “The Time I Partied With Prince Harry In Las Vegas”. But then when you get in the high roller suite and he’s naked and drunk… why not try to hook up, you know? Carrie knew what she was doing, I hope she got a nice paycheck for this little kiss-and-tell.

they were alone for 20 minutes and kissed while he was naked and she was in a bikini. if they didn’t have sex then it means that he must have been more than drunk.
Or so drunk he couldn’t get it up.
In that situation, it seems like sex would be a given. I assume he couldn’t perform.
ITA, I didn’t catch it the first time. She has a British sense of using ‘the very telling understatement’ as an alternative to just blurting it out…”The alcohol affected him”. lol..What’s the British term for “Whiskey Dick”?
That’s what I thought when I read what she said, “The alcohol affected him.”
The English term is “brewer’s droop” LOL!
In Australian: Foster’s Flop!
@ ‘..they were alone for 20 minutes..’
Maybe he could not ‘perform’, but maybe there was no opportunity for that to take place. Why is everybody just indiscriminately buying into this girl’s story? I accept that she was there, and partied in the room with Harry. But a 15-20 min make-out session? I’m not buying it.
I think she is an opportunist, and saw her chance for a payday the moment she noticed Harry and his partying entourage. What better way to get money, and recognition – worldwide! – than by having a story of a hookup with a prince.
But, keeping in mind he was so totally wasted, I’m inclined to think she embelished her story severely, and blew it up into much more than it was. After all, who would know? Harry was spaced out, his ‘friends’ just as much. She might have been in there and saw some other girl make out with Harry, and just adopted her story as her own, since it would make a great gossip item for sale.
Her whole story sounds so contrived, like she is trying not to offend anyone, make herself look ‘decent’ and not a ‘ho, and make him seem like a great guy although he is a total wastrel and fall-down-blind drunkard.
But hey, this is what the culture has become. Try to get yourself famous or rich by grabbing on to anyone’s coattails.
In other words I do not believer her hook-up story, but can appreciate the mercenary spirit that prompted her to ‘release’ this juicy tale.
Have no idea if it is true or not, but I am most baffled by her claim PH thanked her.
According to her he was too drunk to perform- or did she work on him?
In this day and age showing one’s face doing a kiss and tell will follow her the rest of her life. Hope it was worth it.
i agree with you. not buying her story either.
“They were just picking really pretty girls” lol
If I was her I would be embarrassed to reveal all of that to the whole world. I’m clearly too boring for Vegas.
I think he must have been on something else, no one can drink and party for that long without a little something something. For his sake, I hope no one got it on camera though!
I would be afraid of a Royal lawsuit!
Yes, quite true considering lawsuits also include divorce action such as Prince of Wales v Diana Princess of Wales.
HA! I laughed at that too, “just REALLY pretty girls, about 10 of us”….um, I think you’re just kind of pretty, Carrie. You sure it wasn’t “just girls who looked like they’d take their clothes off” ??
Haha yeah really. If you click on the link, it is clear to see she would not be considered cute or pretty by “normal standards.” She does look easy though..and sounds completely full of herself.
I don’t get the fascination of him and them in general. He is spoiled brat and not even good looking. He looks like his father. Yuck.
^that. I totally agree..yawn. Moving along!
You want to see “not good looking?” You should find a picture of Prince Charles when he was around 21. He actually looks better now in his 60s than he did then. He’s grown into his face or something. Luckily neither of the princes look like Charles did when he was young.
I disagree; he’s ugly and a jerk.
Definitely more of Diana and Spencer genes present in the two princes. It’s a shame William isn’t aging very well.
Ditto – I’m sick of him. Alas, there are two on he main page and I’m bored. I won’t read the second one. Zzzzz… and he’s ugly and no where near as buff as I expected. I think I’ll go back and laugh at Jeremy Renner’s pants.
Totally agree. Spoilt, useless brat, living a playboy life and not even attractive. Boring!!
+1000 Let’s not forget this is a guy who thought it would be hilarious to dress up like a nazi at a public event. I seriously do not get the appeal.
Well , at least you fessed up to what I’ve been saying. If you were young and single, I’ve a feeling most would party with Harry.
I do seem to remember some funny would you hit it? Threads. I would have partied with no shame! It truly sounds like a drunken Vegas party, pretty tame actually.
Now she can tell her grandkids she made out with PHG!
backwards, sounds like you haven’t been to many awesome parties. You don’t need hard drugs to party like that and I don’t care…so much ado about nothing.
lol it’s true I haven’t 😛
Hey tiff?! 🙂 I think the drugs/hookers/orgy/sex tape story sounds better so this story has morphed in that direction.
When there is a cliche joke in Britain about 20pints of beer and a curry, you know drugs don’t have to be involved for a person to drink that much, for a week every night and still be standing.
Alls fair and fun in Vegas. Betcha he had a hell of a hangover though.
PHG couldn’t get it up. That is the story she sold.
Oh dear, looks like the front of his hair is starting to go…
That party actually seems kind of innocent.
I didn’t know anything about Prince Harry before, but this story made me like him.
Endearing.
Which is why the story was run in the first place. Full court press by the Royal Family, and no pun intended!
‘What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.’ Not in this case it seems!
She broke the Vegas Party Code, big time. I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the higher-end casinos/hotels banned her after this.
@ pinchofsalt – I thought the same thing. She broke the cardinal code.
Whatever happened to being discreet?
@Izzy – I agree, if this woman were to return to Vegas, I about bet her name is on a black list at most places.
Mourning – Sadly, discretion went out the window (along with dignity, class, and self-respect, to name a few).
PHD in Gossip, you’re dead-on. That’s exactly the story she’s telling. Very astute comment. He does seem kind of harmless, though. He certainly has amazingly poor judgment for a 28 year old. I wonder what his role really is in Afghanistan as a soldier. How protected is he there and what assignments does he go on? Is he surrounded by his bodyguards there, as I suspect?
“Amazingly poor judgement” – ah, that’s funny. He’s 28 and single for heavens sake. I lived in Vegas for 5+ years, and I was in my early 30’s at the time, and single during the last part. The only poor judgement he had was being a Royal. He didn’t do anything most Vegas visitors and residents have done. If you haven’t partied in Vegas, particularly at a high roller establishment, it’s a hard scene to imagine. No one displays good judgement … that’s kind of the point of partying in Las Vegas.
I think he had poor judgement…in hiring people!
His bodyguards should have checked better, or at least they should have prevented the girls from taking pictures.
For the rest I agree with you: he was a nearly 30 yo, very rich guy partying in Vegas, nothing new.
He was not surrounded by body guards in Afganistan.
He did his tour like everyone else until the media broke the story he was there. That made his regiment a target for the Taliban so he was pulled.
Why go out of your way to make up reasons to hate him?
Sorry, but the idea that he was surrounded by personal bodyguards in Afghanistan is ridiculous. In his regiment, he’s just another soldier, and one out in the field at that. If he needed to be baby-sat he would not have been sent out to the desert in first place, they would have just put him on a recruitment tour or something easy like that instead. The armed forces in a forward area would never bend over to accommodate that kind of special requirement.
Prince Harry sounds like a good time.
Nothing about this seems even remotely like a big deal. I have been to wilder parties on a Tuesday night.
That said I am so glad I moved on from that time in my life. It gets boring fast.
Agreed. Drunk guy can’t get it up at a “wild” party? Sounds about right.
Didn’t read her “story”.
I think it’s awful she sold him out.
Amen!
I thought she was great onHIMYM. He it still so cute and handsome.
I must’ve missed something… where does it say that Harry’s fling was on HIMYM?
I think @LeslieM got her stories mixed up.
The thread about Tommy-girl auditioning new prospective wives has a story about a one time girlfriend, Nazanin Boniadi, who was on a few episodes of ‘How I Met Your Mother’.
I feel sorry for this woman’s parents. A drunken,naked party, peop,e ate speculating drugs were there. I have two teenaged boys. I’m trying to raise men of character. I would hate for them to ever be involved in something like that and I know mothers of teenage girls feel the same way.
I feel bad for Harry… Always worried that someone is going to sell a story about him. Any wonder that when he lets his guard down he goes a little crazy…
i guess you will be by your boys’ side every moment of their lives.
No. I’m a parent. That’s the point. I’m trying to raise them to make wise decisions. So hopefully they will never end up in a Las Vegas hotel room naked with people they don’t know, cameras, and possibly drugs. I try an teach them to do the right thing and watch out for situations like that. I teach them to sail, play sports, grill out , treat a date and to just generally have fun! We go boating, hang out at the beach,have kids over to spend the night. I hope we are building self
esteem and learning how to function in the world. I remember college and the kids who got in trouble and the kids that didn’t. Nobody is perfect and I know they are going to face tough decisions and make mistakes. I’m just praying that what we are doing now as parents is helping them make good choices as much as possible.
@LeslieM – Harry had the same. This was one incident in an otherwise exemplary year for him. In Vegas. A city that prides itself on scandalous behaviour and encourages it.
Personally, i never understand the lure of Vegas even in my party days, but i don’t judge the people who like it because i recognise that people are different, with different tastes etc.
By all the various accounts, this was an alcohol fuelled party that didn’t degenerate into anything further given how drunk they all appear to have been. It certainly wasn’t for lack of opportunity.
I agree with you. I think the headlines adding drugs to the mix are just adding insult to injury.
Dont ask me why but I find this story endearing he seems like a fun guy to party with too bad he got sold out.
He sounds harmless(unless they paid her to tell that story). The painting cracks me up!!!!
Who could blame her for wanting to party and hookup with Prince Hot Ginge…but her giving a detailed account to the world is really pathetic.
Leave my Harry alone.
Unfortunately, once the stories and photos got out, there was no way he’d be left alone. BUT… that silly girl should be banned from Vegas for life. Nude photos and selling to a tabloid? Stay classy, Carrie Reichert!
At least she has the balls to put her name and face out there.
i think the anonymous kiss and tell girls are despicable.
Harry needs to grow up. To him whom much is given, much is expected. Time to deal with the fact that even if he didn’t ask to be royalty, he is a royal and more than enjoys the privileges that come with it. So in return, he needs to take the image of his family and their standing seriously. Feel free to party in the palace or wherever, but Vegas? So naive.
Eh, when I was in my twenties I had nights like this as a result of beer and shots…I would go to happy hour at 5 and close the bar down at 2. And I’ve never touched a drug in my life.
How embarrassing must it be that your granny is hearing all these stories? He must be permanently red-faced.
Ha, ha, this is nothing to her probably – i don’t know if you were old enough to hear about Prince Charle’s shennanigans, when he was recorded on telephone telling Camilla he wanted “to be her tampon.” Plus, her sister was known to be quite the party girl. She’s a cool Queen, she’s seen it all; if this ruffled a single feather, she’d just put it in one of her hats.
I love how she says she doesn’t understand why its such a big deal and then goes on to profit based on it being a big deal
Exactly!!!
I find it particularly funny that she specified they were only choosing “really pretty girls” – after she was chosen, of course!
Way to stroke your ego, chickie. (I’d insert an eyeroll here, but I’ve caught an end-of-summer cold/flu from Hubs, and I’m afraid I’d pass out.)
Got to love the randoms…….
oh for gods sake! anyone of you meet a real soldier? how can anyone wonder if he is ready for Afghanistan? NOBODY is ready for actual combat! Everyone of the single (some not lol) 28 year old + soldiers I have met ( and I have met and worked with A LOT) are exactly like this especially the pilots. Over trained, over testosterone d, and ready to blow. Sadly in this day ,they will likely see real combat, from which they will not mentally recover. So blessings to the Ginge, party on!
tia – So true. No one is ever ready for combat or what it will do to a person. It changes people.
I don’t get why the gossip rags are still trying to make this story “happen”. The more details come out the less is seems to be about.
Ah poor Harry, he didn’t ask to be a prince, was born into that nonsense.. he was just venting, they should give him a break..
Prince Harry naked = Think pink!
From the sounds of it, Harry’s friends aren’t the most protective bunch either. A dude’s friends should watch his back and not egg him on to do something stupid.
Let Harry get drunk around this time of year ie- his mom’s anniversary of death and funeral is no fun. However:
1. If Cocaine is involved; US law enforcement re-possession don’t care if you’re a Prince.
2. I’m still wondering if he’s circumcised. ie- photos not that revealing 🙁
Assuming William’s situation is the same as Harry’s, google his pictures. You will have the answer to your question.
BTW – kate is a lucky girl. 😉
British men who aren’t Jewish or Muslim (or diabetics) generally are not circumcised. It’s a safe bet the princling wears a turtleneck
I’d party with Harry- he’s a hottie!
I’d never sell him out. This chick sux. Yes, I’m jealous.
The news just had a clip of him speaking at some children’s charity he attended, and I can’t help it, watching him interact with the kiddies, and his voice – very sexy.
I still don’t get the big deal – he’s 28, he was in Vegas, he isn’t married… so he got drunk and frisky. Sounds like most folks in Vegas (the ones visiting, not the locals). The only thing ‘shocking’ about the whole situation seems to be the fact that, according to this girl anyway, the Prince’s security detail actively egged him on and seemed to have purposefully orchestrated an ’embarrassing event’ for the royal family. THAT… not only is just plain crappy behavior, it would also make me seriously uneasy about the intentions of the people around him. If they pushed the situation as far as they could, if they really went out of their way to damage their employer – at the very least it sounds like there needs to be a mass firing. At the worst, I think Harry needs to figure out who works for HIM and who is willing to put him in danger if it would embarrass the royal family.
Weird to feel bad for a prince – but he’s got the double whammy of embarrassing himself on an international scale AND having to confront the truth that people he likely viewed as actual friends and confidants gleefully betrayed that trust. It’s the last one that will hurt the most.
The Naked Hug Girl who has remained unidentified is the only class-act Vegas Party Girl in this story (which leads me to believe she’s not an actual Vegas Party Girl).
She’s chosen not to identify herself; not to sell her story to the tab with the biggest cheque; and (most tellingly) not to sell out PHG.
Somehow I just can’t believe Harry is like any other bloke in Afghanistan and taking the same risks as they are. I could be wrong, but that just doesn’t sound plausible. Not that I want him blown up or losing limbs or anything (or any other soldier to do so, of course), but it’s very difficult to imagine the super-rich, super-privileged to really be like others there. Maybe as an American I’m used to how our politicians (the super-wealthy)), get cushy no-risk “military assignments” (ahem, George W. Bush). But in general, I am incredulous that Harry doesn’t get any special treatment there. Unfortunately, the world just doesn’t work like that. I’d love to hear comments from people who really know (not just the Harry fans).
Harry, doesn’t receive special treatment. He is treated and expected to be a proper soldier for the simple reason that he is ‘the Spare’ NOT ‘The Heir’.
That distinction is what makes all the difference in any favours he may receive and how he is treated.
When you’re in the military, you want to be with the men you are training with and serving with. The bond is tight. It is a real brotherhood. I remember reading the last time he did a tour he fought to be with his platoon and not get special treatment. or whatever they’re called over there.
This girl sounds like a egotistical bimbo!
“only picking really pretty girls…”
“I have blue eyes and he was going on and on”
“I was born in England so I’m pretty familiar with the royal family…”
seriously??? she’s talking like she knows them or something. She really needs to get over herself. I’m not even sure if I buy the story! The way she’s talking is just…..something is up.
Right on, Lex. I’m gonna be catty and say that she’s not as great looking as she thinks she is. Harry seems to have a “type” – trashy blondes with nice bodies and butterfaces. She fits the mold. BTW – those pictures of her posing bent over in the sequined dress look like something out of a Vegas escort advertisement. Those pool parties are expensive, and as the guys get drunk, the money flows. It’d be an excellent place for an escort to troll for clients. Just saying’ .
Prince Harry naked = Baby, I was Born this Way! 😉
Sounds like he’d had some MDMA, not just booze. A friend of mine acts very, very similar to that when he’s high.
nothing to overanalyze here…
I’D DO IT!!! woo hoo!!!
good for harry, HARMLESS fun, harmless…
Jesus, what IS the big deal? Really. He was in Vegas. He drank. He partied. He’s young now, when SHOULD he party – when he’s 58, maybe? Chill…
P.S. Not buying a word this oh-so-pretty bimbo is saying.
I guess Royalty doesn’t have to worry about the same things as we commoners such as Herpes, Syphilis or Gonorrehea.
What is it now, like one in five has Herpes or is it more like one in four?
And so I guess Aids is no longer a threat except to Africans so there ya go….
Only pretty girls? She’s cute at best. Maybe a 6 on a good day. However, she’s definitely a 10 for girls who’d take their clothes off.
This bitch is lying. She was just arrested two nights ago for faking bank checks so she is obviously used to lying. Typical Vegas girl, only out for money and fame.
