Prince Harry’s Nepal trip involved pretending to be a tiger & being adorable

149678PCN_Harry70

In between his work with wounded veterans and his advance work for the Invictus Games in May, Prince Harry found time to make a trip to Nepal. These are some lovely photos of Harry over the weekend and today in Nepal. So far, he’s visited some of the sites destroyed by 2015 earthquake and he’s visited some Red Cross sites as they are still on the ground dealing with the humanitarian disaster.

Like Prince William, Harry cares about conservation efforts. Unlike William, Harry doesn’t deflect to conservation work when he’s being criticized for being work-shy. Harry visited the Bardia National Park in search of tigers, but he didn’t get to see any. He did get to see an elephant though! And he got to play-act at being a tiger for the tiger camera-trap. When Harry signed the guest book, he literally signed it “Capt. Wales!” With an exclamation point, because he’s adorable.

Upon his arrival, Harry was greeted by five virgins. Seriously!

Anyway, Harry was respectful and lovely throughout his trip. Tonight he’s going to be spending the night in the “hamlet” of Leorani, in the mountains. I think he’s going to camp out. Lovely, lovely Harry. The @KensingtonRoyal Twitter has been posting tons of pics – go here to see more.

PS… Lately there hasn’t been a lot of love for Harry, so if you want me to continue writing about him when we get new photos, honk if you love Harry!!

    Love Harry! Would rather read about Harry than the Kartrashians.

  3. Chris says:

    William articles are fun for snark but Harry is just comes across as a good and hard working person who actually cares about the causes he’s involved in. William never projects any warmth or true emotion to me. I guess he projects petulance and a lack of interest. Harry has all the charm!

  4. LadyJane says:

    HONK!

    Honk!!

    Honk!

    Here’s a honk for Harry. I agree, we need to turn the Harry posts into having more discussion.
    Maybe we can compare his work with his lame brother?
    Discuss why the Royal press DOES seem to be including Harry as being work shy along with the Cambridges? Is it because they’re annoyed with him not giving them anything easy to write about his social life?
    Analyze some of the odd tension in that interview from about a month ago with the brothers I just saw…
    Based on Harry’s odd/annoyed? look at Will, think Will was lying about Harry going to their house for food.
    He seems like a jerk for an older brother.

    • notasugarhere says:

      It will continue until Harry gets a paying job. The Palace never said that he was going to solely do royal engagements. It was announced he was leaving the Army, working in Africa, and would then be looking for a new job. Volunteering with rehab 2-3 days a week doesn’t silence the critics.

      Many taxpayers do not want Harry to be a working royal ever. They want him and his future spouse to be private citizens not “on the dole” like W&K. He cannot be seen to do more than William and he cannot be a “full-time royal” (#whateverfulltimeroyalmeans) if William and Kate refuse to be.

      • Dara says:

        Lordy, if Harry can’t be seen to do more than William, that leaves not very much to do, does it?

        That concept never actually occurred to me, but it does make sense – in the twisted sort of logic that governs how the British monarchy manages things.

      • KB says:

        That’s insane! He’s the one that truly connects to people. He oozes charisma and he’s good at these public appearances. Will & Kate will never be able to pull that off. They should just play to their strengths. Of which W&K have none.

        ETA: Harry seems a lot less wasteful of taxpayers’ money than Will and Kate.

    • Christin says:

      Completely agree with the perception Wills is probably a jerk to Harry. I feel sorry for Harry in that regard.

    • Magnoliarose says:

      I saw an interview years ago with both of them and Harry was so much more charming and Will cut him a few times in the interview . Harry looked at him confused but it was clear he was used to saying nothing. I thought it was just sibling stuff but it did stick out to me and so did Workshy’s petulant expression.

  8. Betti says:

    Honk! Plus Harry, you can pretend to be a tiger with me any day 😉

  9. K says:

    He is just so charming and well let’s be real hot. I mean the girl that gets to marry him won the Windsor prize. Love him.

  10. La princesita says:

    please, more Harry and less Kartrashians!

  11. woodstock_schulz says:

    Honk x eleventy billion! More Harry stories! especially contrasted with stories of the Buckets work-shy ways.

  12. Lilacflowers says:

    Honk!

  13. LadyAnne says:

    Honk honk !! More Harry and less Kartrashians indeed !

  14. SusanneToo says:

    Honk, honk! He’s a doll! That was a lovely note.

  15. ollie says:

    I don’t get why the Cambridges will visit India and Bhutan next month when Harry now is in the neighbour country. Nepal is in the middle so why can’t awesome Harry do the big tour?
    Who planned this?

    • notasugarhere says:

      It may have been the Foreign Office receive a request for “a member of the BRF” to visit X places. At other times, the request has specifically been for Harry and William was sent instead (China).

      W&K are known for padding their numbers with tours, as tours are the few work things they’re willing to do. If this was dangled in front of them, they’d grab it. I’m sure William would NOT ALLOW a photo op of Harry alone in front of the Taj Mahal. He and his wife have to do the Diana-esque posing themselves so he would have claimed India for his tour.

    • anne_000 says:

      There was an article out late last year in which it was said that W&K might be going on an official Caribbean tour in Spring of this year, so then came the criticism.

      I don’t know why they’re going to India and Bhutan. At least with Harry’s trip to Nepal, the main purposes are to learn about the ongoing aid work for the earthquake victims and to pay respect to the Gurkhas and their families, as Harry spent some time living with one of their battalions while in Afghanistan.

      Oh wait, a recent article reported that W&K will be learning about mental health issues by going to see those helping the poor, or something like that, in the area based on the location of the movie ‘Slumdog Millionaire.’ Yeah, because that experience won’t be wasted on them, right?

      This would fit in with Kate’s idea that mental illness is based on improper parenting and teacher support, or as some have interpreted as ‘poor people aren’t doing a good enough job parenting as the richer folks do.’

      • notasugarhere says:

        I wonder if they tried to “take” Edward and Sophie’s recent tour of the Bahamas, Florida & Cayman Islands and were slapped down?

      • kai says:

        Regarding your last paragraph, what did she say?

    • qwerty says:

      They probably want to do some shopping in India.

  16. lower-case deb says:

    HOOOOOONK!!

  17. Sushi says:

    Honk! I like reading stories about Harry and Angelina Jolie. My Two Favorite People.

  18. Luka says:

    More Harry always please! Yummy ginger goodness!!!

  19. Katherine says:

    I love Harry- keep the stories coming!

  20. Gigi says:

    HONK! My daily saving grace is checking here for Handsome Harry pics and real talk about Dolittle! Keep it up!

  21. Who ARE these people? says:

    Bring on the nubile maidens! (referenced in a story on an item from Page Six last week…what was it again?)

    He seems lovely and natural.

  22. Dick Move says:

    Please change the name of your site to CeleHarry. Honk honk.

  23. Smd says:

    This is how it is done! He’s clearly the best candidate for the throne!

  24. Catmac says:

    This guy is aces. He’s handsome, nice, hard-working…has a real career. Does charity that makes a difference. How did the royal family turn out two sons so different? Can’t this guy be the king? And lawyer Chelsey Davis the queen? lol

  25. HH says:

    HONK!!!!!

  26. What was that says:

    Regarding the “lack of love”…my view is that is not that we don’t love him or others but some issues fire up the comments pages more .i always appreciate the fashion or hunks but I rarely comment…
    Then the BRF do something stupid again or ,perhaps Trump and then I comment as much as a protest against them than an appreciation!..I know it’s odd but there it is!!

  27. anne_000 says:

    For the Harry articles, I spend more of my time looking at the pics than writing posts. Opposite of the W&K articles.

    It must be fun being Harry’s type of royal. He camps out under the night sky in various countries, goes to places that aren’t necessarily tourist spots so therefore gets to meet more regular people and see more of the realness of a country, and he has a natural ease among whatever crowd he’s with, which must make meeting new people fun and enjoyable.

  28. Lainey says:

    Honk! x10
    Love Harry, he’s the best of the young royals. And love that he’s staying in one of the houses there instead of going back to a hotel!

  29. Mia4s says:

    King Harry for the win; to hell with succession laws! 😉

  30. LAB says:

    More wonderful Harry!

  34. Vanna says:

    HONK! I’d rather see Harry than the work-shy couple.

  35. Annie says:

    Hunk…. I mean HONK!

  36. Kamora1986 says:

    Yes more Harry stories please! I never comment but didn’t realize that was risking less Harry coverage!

  37. Leah says:

    Honk!

  38. MAP says:

    More Harry stories please. And more George photos. And keep the stories about Wills and Kate coming, because I enjoy the snark. Thanks!!

  39. mytake says:

    Honk!

  40. MV says:

    Honk honk!
    He is lovely!

  41. SEB says:

    I don’t comment much on any of the posts either, but the Harry posts are some of my favorites. More Harry, less kartrashian.

  42. kibbles says:

    This is what a Royal should be doing on a regular basis. Hardly anyone criticizes Harry anymore and no one really cares about his personal escapades or whatever blonde he’s hooking up with at the moment because he does his work and does it with a smile on his handsome face. That is all people expect of from William and Kate, not whether she is wearing a cute dress or if more photos of their children will be released to the public. Sure, those things are nice, but what really matters is showing the world that they are decent human beings with some compassion for the less fortunate and the desire to want to use their position to make the world a better place to live. This is what Harry does each time we see him in an official role as a royal. He is the embodiment of his mother if not an even more charming public figure with less drama than Diana. His mother would be very proud of him.

  43. TeamAwesome says:

    Honk to infinity beyond! Even more than being a gingery hunk of adorableness, the work that he does and his clear passion for people makes him cover worthy!!

  44. Eleonor says:

    He has made mistake in the past, but he is the one who has inherited Diana’s ability to play the media game, I remember the joke he made about himself after the naked pictures of him were all over the places: only one joke everybody laugh, and everything was forgotten. And because he works really hard, so people are more prone to forget mistakes here and there.
    William hasn’t really understood.
    But I think Diana knew this: I remember an interview of her with kids, and she said “Herry is like me, he is the bad boy”. I think she knew Herry was more similar to her than people would have thought, she would be really proud of him.

  45. kg says:

    Honk!! More Harry please!

  46. GiGi says:

    To me, this is what Royal Work looks like. Goodwill trips, drawing attention to charities which need aide, gladhanding donors, etc. Harry’s got it spot on. These people are born into wealth, class and privilege, it is the very *least* they can do to give back. I can’t understand how Will/Kate don’t get this when they have very good examples all around – The Queen, Prince Phillip, Prince Charles & Camilla, Edward & Sophie, Princess Anne – they’re ALL doing it, but of course, the press is going to focus on them and they’re giving a real black eye to the entire situation at the moment.

  47. Mel M says:

    HONK!

  48. Reece says:

    Honk! Honk!
    Adding in my honks before heading out to that place that pays me to show up and smile.

  49. Olenna says:

    Half honk. He ain’t all that handsome, but he seems quite charming and he’s a Vet, too. So, hooah!

  50. TotallyBiased says:

    Honk! For my second favourite Brit!

    HONK!

  56. BooBooLaRue says:

    Honk of burnin love!

  57. Shijel says:

    Honk. Harry has his issues, but he’s far more personable, hard-working and engaging than Sour Will. Perhaps it’s because being, what, fourth in line now? gives him some freedom. I like reading about it, and I like it that he at least seems to be very hands-on and ‘there’, wherever he goes. I would compare him to Diana. He wins hearts. Will and Kate are just so… lifeless.

    • NotSoSocialButterfly says:

      Your comparison to Diana rings true for me, too. Caring and engaging versus (W&K) just doing time.

  58. LAR says:

    Honk!

  59. Christin says:

    Harry has ‘it’ — the qualities that cannot always be taught. He comes across as an engaged, empathetic yet fun person (yes, like his mother).

    Someone already pointed out he’s much like Diana’s better character traits, minus dramatics. William seems to have only carried forth a victim mentality, times 1,000.

  60. AC says:

    Honk! Love him.

  61. coconut says:

    More honking!

  62. Kay Dozier says:

    Consider this my honk! I don’t comment much but I absolutely love hearing about Harry!

    HONK!

  66. Sam says:

    HONK!!!!!

  67. notasugarhere says:

    Yes, please, Kaiser. Looking forward to lots of Best Buddy photos of Harry and Michelle Obama at the upcoming Invictus Games in May.

    • Cricket says:

      YES! I was looking to see if anyone would bring up the Invictus Games.. Please, pease, please.. cover daily the Invictus Games and the Harry & Michelle love and it’s in Disney! Maybe Harry with Elsa photos?

  68. ClaireB says:

    I love to read about Harry, but it’s hard to say much about a well-adjusted, hard working veteran who does his job! Other than, “I’d be happy to give up my privacy for a luxurious lifestyle and opportunities to help make a difference in the lives of others, so, yes, I’ll marry you!” I’m a homebody, anyway, so losing the ability to go out is no big deal.

    I’d also like to read about what the other actually-working royals are up to, like when Go Fug Yourself does the Royals Roundup. Sophie, Anne, and Charles/Camilla don’t get any American press for their events, and it would be nice to have their work and the Cambridges laziness in one place for easy contrast!

  69. Victronis says:

    honk for Harry

  70. RR says:

    Love Harry stories! Keep ’em coming!

  71. OctoberSong says:

    Coming out of lurking to HONK. I adore Harry! Never stop posting about him!

    ETA: Random thought – I’ve always have this feeling that Harry will marry twice. The first time he’ll pick a more….expected or safe wife and it will end in tears. The second time around I think he’ll shake things up if you catch my drift. Thoughts?

    • What was that says:

      Interesting!
      There was an article in the UK press about the fact he is torn between wanting the family life and being a batchelor..perhaps the ‘suitable girl’ to provide the family and then someone totally different in his mid life crisis phase!

    • Christin says:

      Between his parents’ divorce and the strange duo he calls his brother and sister-in-law, it’s going to be interesting to see what he does. He could end up marrying much later in life.

    • Magnoliarose says:

      That’s our plan. Harry and I knew as a soon to be divorced woman with children I would not immediately be accepted. And the whole American thing after Wallis…lets just say it would be dicey. But the beauty of him also being divorced is that I can pull a Camilla and be totally acceptable. But please keep this under wraps as it’s the long game we are playing here.

  72. Rae says:

    HONK HONK HONK HONK!!!

  73. Nicole says:

    Ummmm yes please! Way more Harry!

  74. Molly says:

    I’ll never tire of seeing Harry, but I ma so over William and Kate. Moar Harry!

  81. Kri says:

    Adore him.Although I think it would be best to not see him in person,as I might be carted off for frothing and blushing and generally acting like an 11 yr.old at a One Direction concert.or whoever is the thing now with tweens.

  96. Christin says:

    Reading all these “honks” makes me wonder if Wills is secretly frustrated that Harry is now the hot one.

    Believe it or not, 15 – 20 years ago, Will was considered the heartthrob. How the tide has turned!

    Honking for the sexy ginger. It’s very heartwarming to see so much love for my future husband. After I comment I am going to try out my new British hats to make sure my hat game is up to snuff and practice my royal signature wave in the mirror.

    Yes, More Harry! Charm just radiates from him and people cannot help but smile back at him. Such a wonderful gift he has to make the people he meets feel special and appreciated. His love of life is such a joy to see. It doesn’t hurt that he is easy on the eyes!

  111. Neners says:

    Harry just gets it. He really does. He is my favorite royal and it’s not even close. PLEASE WRITE MORE ON HIM.

  112. rosiek says:

    Honk! It will be interesting to see what his role will eventually be like. The Invictus Games take a lot of his time now. Will he always be so involved ?

    I wonder why he and Will did not want to take on the Prince’s Trust ? It seemed to me it would have been a great position (too much work for them ?) and they could still pursue some of their own interests (Sentabale, Tusk Trust). I’ve not seen much about this, but it is Charles’ legacy.

    I hope the York girls stay out of it. They make much better socialites than workers for any cause. Would hurt them to get jobs either.
