Is Prince Harry dating David Gandy’s girl-bander ex, Mollie King?

Last year, British model and “one of the most beautiful men in the world” David Gandy began dating a woman in the British girl group, The Saturdays. The girl was Mollie King, and two seconds after she and Gandy began dating, Mollie started giving interviews about him and their relationship. Which did not endear her to me at all. Anyway, Gandy dumped Mollie a few months ago, and I was really hoping that was the last I would hear of her. But no! This woman has managed to attach herself to PRINCE HARRY. For the love of God!

HE’S a Prince, she’s a pop princess called King – and they are said to be “head over heels”. Prince Harry, third in line to the throne, is enjoying a blossoming friendship with singer Mollie King of girl band The Saturdays. He is claimed to be “completely smitten” with the beautiful blonde, who split from male model David Gandy two months ago.

Harry, 27, first met 24-year-old Mollie, almost two years ago. In the past few weeks they have been spotted flirting in bars and a club. Some sources say their friendship has already blossomed into a full-blown romance but claim the couple have tried to keep it under wraps from even closest friends.

One said: “It’s very early days for them but they’re head over heels.”

Last week partygoers saw them and pals having a karaoke session in the Bunga Bunga club in London. At 3am the club closed to everyone apart from “special guests” as Harry and Mollie, whose group has had 10 top 10 singles and three top 10 albums, downed cocktails and sang Adele and Jay-Z songs before leaving separately.

The two met at the Asprey World Class Cup at Hurtwood Polo Club in Surrey in July 2010 when London-born Mollie cheered on Harry on the polo field. He was later introduced to her. In the past months, she has been seen in Public, The Mayfair Polynesian and Nobu Berkeley, all London haunts frequented by Harry.

Mollie has also been given the royal seal of approval by Harry’s cousin Zara Phillips, who is friends with her bandmate Una Healy, 30. Una’s fiance Ben Foden is a rugby player like Zara’s husband Mike Tindall. The three women have been spotted at matches together.

Last month, Harry, who dated blonde Chelsy Davy for several years, complained that being a Prince stopped him finding love. Reflecting on his chances of marriage, he said: “I’m not so much searching for someone to fulfil the role, but finding someone willing to take it on.”

[From The Daily Express]

My opinion (and seriously, don’t start yelling at me for simply stating my general opinion on this woman): Mollie is Harry’s type, because she seems like a pushy, somewhat trashy little famewhore. Granted, Chelsea Davy wasn’t a famewhore – the exact opposite (and that was the problem). But Harry definitely likes girls who are NOT “the marrying kind.” He likes a blonde who knows how to drink him under the table. He likes club girls. He likes party girls. So while the idea of Mollie and Harry is disappointing, I also understand how it may have happened, or how it could happen. Still, it’s not like he’s going to marry a chick in a girl-band, you know? This will last a few months, tops. If it wasn’t just a one-night-stand to begin with.

    She always seems very nice on everything. Not famewhorey at all and she is super posh!

  2. Tess says:

    She seems Harry’s type.
    I for one would love to see Harry propose to one of these blonde fame-whore types, purely for the Queen’s reaction.
    I love the Ranga Prince.

  3. Astrid says:

    Is it the photo angle or is her head too large for her body?

    • marie says:

      I didn’t notice till I read this and went back and looked, now it’s all I see! Looks a bit like a bobble head..

      • Chatcat says:

        ScarJo has the same look/issue/problem.
        Guy’s must like that alien – out of space looking female…maybe they think they’ll get out of this world sex out of em? hmmmmmmmmmm

    • nanette says:

      Liz Hurley has a head like that too. It looks like it’s on a strange angle.

  4. brin says:

    I just saw this story and knew you would cover it, Kaiser! Girl is movin on up.

  5. JJ says:

    she looks like a prettier chelsey

    I for one would love to see Harry propose to one of these blonde fame-whore types (can you imagine… Duchess Mollie/Chelsea… Ha!)… purely for the Queen’s reaction.

  7. normades says:

    Michael K will be crushed 🙁

  8. Mack says:

    She’s beautiful! It would be interesting to see Harry dating again. I wonder if she would play along with the royal status quo like Kate did, or do her own thing, a la Chelsea?

  9. atorontogal says:

    He is one of the most eligible bachelors in the world. He is young and good looking, why should he settle down? If I had his life I never would! Colour me crazy butI think those shorts are so fug!

  10. spinner says:

    NOOOOOOOOO!!

    He’s Mine!!

  11. Mr.Truth says:

    Harry gave a fierce resistance, he escaped Charles/Cam anniversary. Today Charles expressed his dissatisfaction, Harry went alone to Romania, notice – without Chelsy or any other famewhores, with whom according to Camilla’s version he’s in love. Why did not he take on vacation “head over heels”? why Chelsy pursues him everywhere in vain? I know, he was sending secret signs to his real girl, I just hope that all these Camilla’s tabloidstories will not affect their relationship.
    and when Harry talks about “someone to fulfill the role” – of course it’s not about Saturday Club Girls!

    • fairy godmother says:

      Well if I had to choose between being present for Cam’s & Charlie’s 7th year of marriage or escaping to Romania.. I would rather take my chance with the vampires!

      The idea of Harry’s dad expressing his “dissatisfaction” with Harry’s choice of where Harry chose to go takes the cake. Why should Harry be expected to have a vile woman repeatedly down his throat? Harry is his own man- more than can be said about his bro!

    • molly says:

      Harry went to Romania on his fathers behalf to do some work. His brother William Middleton, was in Scotland on what we should just call their 5th holiday of the year and Chelsy was no where to be seen.

  12. HoustonGrl says:

    Well, no doubt she’s his type. Yea, he’s probably dating her, for the next five minutes.

  13. YokoDMV says:

    she has no neck – all head & shoulders

  14. max says:

    “Camilla earns money on different famewhores profiles’ improval. These girls are just public mattresses.” it’s true, for the last few weeks we read that he dated Ketty Perry, Cheryl Cole, now Molly King. I also think she takes money from parents of stupid rich girls whom she promotes with royals. Some way too positive comments are PR people, it’s very obvious.

    • fairy godmother says:

      Not sure I follow you. Do you think Cams is cashing in by promoting rich girls by bringing them into the royal fold?
      Odd, but possible. Especially since Cams keeps Chelsy under her wing by having her employed at the legal firm Cams uses.

      • max says:

        Chelsy’s father – criminal, if he took money all these years … it’s not so easy for them to end this relationship, my bet that Chelsy will return to the place and then we’ll see “own man-more than can be said about his bro ! “

      Not looking for an argument here-
      My English is not that off that your 1st comment is regarding Cams & money while your next comment is Chelsy’s dad who is criminal (most likely) & takes cash. He takes cash from who- Cams??
      You bet Chelsy will return to ‘the place”? What Africa or her habitual pursuit of Harry? She is known to track Harry’s whereabouts then she goes to where Harry is. She likes being able to get into the best clubs & does not want Harry to have a life that does not include her.
      Honestly, the idea of a toxic unhealthy relationship that is on-off hardly screams loving & lasting together. By all accounts Chelsy is fickle.
      I do believe Harry is his own man- thankfully! His bro is basically a whussy which has been evident.
      Why not respond to my 1st reply on Cams? Or do you make this sh!t up as you go along?

    • fairy godmother says:

      @ max-
      your link only mentions Mollie & Harry.
      Your theory may have some truth to it if palace has issued a denial.
      If true wonder if Charlie has a clue as to what Cams does.
      It also means Chelsy is knee-deep in it & Harry best wise up!

  15. Lilly says:

    Oh, goodness. I wish he was back with Chelsy!

  16. Jessica says:

    that first pic she has a major wonk eye!

  17. rogue says:

    Harry is out there enjoying himself and the press will call any girl he meets or socialises with his girlfriend.The press has no idea what goes on in his life.

  18. phaksi says:

    She looks like Sienna Miller in the last picture.

  19. She’s pretty. Her head is a bit large, but she’s very pretty.

  20. Dena says:

    He likes his blondes. I guess he has a type. He also looks like his dad (Prince Charles).

  21. Nessa says:

    I say good for her, if it’s true. I would freakin love to know what it’s like to ride on the hot ginger prince train. Over and over and over….

  22. Lizbet says:

    I love how the guy outside the club is in the middle of shaking Harry’s hand and Harry’s already over it.

    The security guy like, “That’s enough with the hands, sir.”

  23. pato says:

    “they are head over hills” yeah sure….they are using each other, if they date it will last some months but I doubt she, or someone like her (meaning celebrity and the kind), will be even close to a royal event.

  24. fairy godmother says:

    I read not too long ago a pattern of girls linked to Harry (singer, underwear model)… use being linked with Harry for their own PR.
    This chick has a new a record out soon does she not?

  25. mar says:

    wow, she really is a better version of Chelsea.

  26. Reece says:

    1. I always laugh reading these new couple stories cuz they always say “they’re head over heels”, it’s very early but “they’re head over heels”. Isn’t everybody “head over heels” in the beginning?
    2. I agree with the tide here. She’s an upgraded version of Chelsea.
    3. Am I the only one starting to think Harry has a little tiny bit of an Oedipus complex?

  27. Laura says:

    I wonder what she looks like without 8 layers of makeup.

  28. TruthTella says:

    I don’t want to be a bitch but i always think you act like one over Mollie, I live in the UK and honestly most people here are more likely to know who SHE is than David Gandy. She always comes across as a sweet girl though not the sharpest tool in the box. Also I’ve never even heard her talking about him unless she was asked and even then it was like “things are going great… ” nothing in depth or fame whorish.
    Basically i’m just saying give the girl a break.

  29. Beth says:

    I doubt Mollie and Prince Harry will last if they are a couple. I have never heard of Mollie and David Gandy. Does Mollie sing well? I am from the US though. He and my brother would get along–dating blondes and loving to party! Sigh!

  30. ciara says:

    I dont understand the hate towards mollie. She is known in the uk and Ireland to be a lovely girl.I was on a flight to dublin with her once and she was so sweet and humble to everybody, talking to all the security guards at the airport and cabin crew.She is so down to earth and nice. I dont know why you dislike her.

  31. molly says:

    Sorry to disappoint, but this isnt true. Harry and Mollie have common friends, but according to Harrys close friend, they were in the same bar one night but they didnt even talk. Plus, Harry cant date any celebs as its against the rules.
