FINISHED: Chelsy took the decision
Chelsy cried her heart out after telling Harry: It's Over
Rollercoaster Royal Romance finally hits buffers
PRINCE Harry and his girlfriend Chelsy Davy have SPLIT, we can reveal today.
Weeping Chelsy ended their rollercoaster five- year romance after tiring of her prince's playboy antics, according to her pals.
The blonde heiress "sobbed her heart out" after dumping the playboy royal last week following a series of heartbreak phone calls, one told us.

Last night a senior source close to the prince confirmed the split and insisted the pair parted "amicably" because the relationship had, "simply run its course".
Meanwhile Chelsy's friends were rallying around her after the meltdown of her fiery romance.
One told us: "She has simply had enough. They have been going through what she calls a 'rough patch' and she didn't see the point in going on."
Sources close to Chelsy say she feels "betrayed" by Harry's constant flirting.
"There has been talk of other girls-but Harry denied it. Chelsy felt it was time to call it a day," said the pal.
After the split the 23-year-old Zimbabwean beauty-who is on a masters degree law course at Leeds University-stayed with a friend in London's Mayfair.
"She was distraught," a source said. "But now it is over she is pragmatic about it. They are still talking and are friends but both feel they need more freedom.
"Their lives have been moving in different directions. Chelsy is about to embark on a career in law and being a royal girlfriend can be quite limiting.
LAST UK PICTURE: In November 2008
"She knows there will be a bit of a reaction but within time it will die down and she can get on with her life." And she has already changed her Facebook profile status to "not in a relationship", it was reported last night.
Harry, 24, is believed to have told his father about the split a few days ago. Both Charles and Camilla were said to be sad for the couple, but respected his decision. The Queen was also informed. "She does not like surprises," said an aide.
Harry warned Clarence House officials of the news, telling his private secretary former SAS officer Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton and press spokesman Miguel Head.
A well-placed royal source close to the young prince told us: "Yes, they have split, they are not together. But they are still friendly and still amicable.
"They have been going out for five years and the relationship had run its course. This happens."
Clarence House was saying nothing about the split last night. A spokesman said: "We do not comment on Prince Harry's personal life."
The couple's volatile romance has been running into trouble for more than a year. Fourteen months ago they agreed to a "trial separation", but that ended when Harry returned from the front line in Afghanistan and they rekindled their love during an African holiday.
The last time the couple were pictured together in Britain was at Twickenham on November 23 when they went to the rugby international between England and South Africa.
LOOK OF LOVE: They met in Durban, 2004
By the following month they were rowing again, and Harry was pictured at Sandringham in mid- December on a shoot with Prince William and Kate Middleton-but without his long-time girlfriend.
Chelsy had been seen partying with friends at trendy London clubs such as Amika in Kensington-but without Harry.
Yet they were determined to give it one last go-and went on a make-or-break paradise holiday over Christmas.
They were spotted in a loving embrace, laughing and drinking with Chelsy's brother Shaun and her parents Charles and Beverley on a beach in Mauritius.
But their £1,000 a-night beach hut reunion at the 5-star Paradis Hotel could not resolve their problems.
After they returned to the UK the rows continued as they saw less and less of each other.
A source told us: "It was on this holiday the couple realised the relationship had pretty much run its course."
SHADES OF ROMANCE: At a polo match
One of the final straws for Chelsy may have been our revelations of Prince Harry's racist shame. She was said to be furious about the furore caused by Harry's remarks on a video diary during a training exercise in which he referred to a comrade as "our little Paki friend".
The first indication of a split came last weekend when the pair were due to attend a party at the Duke and Duchess of Northumberland's Alnwick Castle, where Harry Potter was filmed.
The grand bash is understood to have been thrown by Harry's pal George Percy and Chelsy was expected to show up on the Prince's arm-but friends suspected the worst when she failed to join him. Now both will be going their separate ways.
Chelsy recently did work experience at the Queen's solicitors Farrers and has law exams in a few months time.
Although the young heiress was educated at Cheltenham College and Stowe School, she has found it difficult to settle in Britain and felt isolated when studying at Leeds. Many believe she will return to Africa after graduating to embark on a legal career out of the spotlight.
Harry would have little time to see Chelsy over the next 18 months even if the romance had staggered on.
He faces the toughest challenge of his life as he tries to fulfil his dream of flying Apache attack helicopters.
The warrior Prince, who led his men into battle in Afghanistan last year, is eager to make the grade and get a second chance to take on the Taliban.
HUG: In Cape Town
But before he is let loose he must prove he has what it takes. The army's flying unit at Middle Wallop selects only the elite to pilot combat aircraft.
Before then, the third in line to the throne will be taught to fly several machines-including Lynx helicopters and fixed-wing planes.
But the biggest obstacle for Harry is the strict rules he must obey-not least a year-long booze ban.
A source at Middle Wallop said: "There is a huge amount of info for Harry to take in." He arrived at the Army Air Corps HQ Hampshire, for the first day of training last Monday.
"The news of Harry and Chelsy's split is bound to cause concern to the Queen-especially following the on-off romance between Prince William and Kate Middleton.
The Queen is keen that the young royals demonstrate they are capable of forming stable relationships.
She has privately insisted that her grandchildren date serious partners for at least five years.
Now it seems that in Prince Harry's case, that five years is definitely up.
FIVE YEARS OF THRILLS
CHELSY and Harry have enjoyed a passionate relationship since their first date in South Africa in 2004.
KISSING: At Diana concert in 2007
In 2005, during a birthday interview, Harry said: "I would love to tell everyone how amazing she is but once I start talking about that, I have left myself open."
Whenever the couple were pictured, they were usually in each other's arms-or gazing into each other's eyes-or kissing, as they did at the concert for Diana in 2007. Even last November, they were still laughing together. But the end was soon to come.
He's too young to settle down
By Robert Jobson
PRINCE Harry has had a tough couple of weeks. First he had to apologise for filming himself making racist remarks on video.
LOVE: In the air
Now his stunning girlfriend Chelsy Davy has dumped him. A pity, because they seemed so well suited. They partied hard, enjoyed romantic holidays and were often pictured laughing and joking together.
But understandably Chelsy couldn't cope with his roving eye, despite giving him endless chances to reform.
And in the end their long absences from each other did not make the heart grow fonder.
Chelsy is a bright girl with a bright future in law. Harry has made it clear he wants a real military career. And, both in their early 20s they are perhaps too young to be settling down.
Insiders say this split is for keeps. Who knows? They are young and petulant and, after a period apart, may decide to have another try in the future.
Whatever they decide, we wish them both well.
Wedding would be no fWills do
THE Queen has let slip that Prince William and girlfriend Kate Middleton will have a "credit crunch" wedding if they decide to tie the knot.
A senior palace source told the News of the World Her Majesty is "mindful" of the misery caused across the nation by economic meltdown.
And she believes a lavish marriage celebration like Charles and Diana's-which ran to millions-would not go down well with her struggling subjects.
The aide said: "The Queen knows how the nation is really suffering. A big lavish ceremony would send out all the wrong messages.
"The last thing she would want is to rub people's noses in it by spending a fortune. She has made it clear that the massive royal weddings of the past are just that, of the past."

Leave them alone.

Hi every body! I'd like to say that the Royal Family is over all composed of human beings members. Of course they are the members of the Royal Family but before being Royal, they are a family. So, I think we should let them live their lives-above all the media.
Kisses from France to everybody. Love and be loved. Have all a lovely day!

Chelsy definitely is too intelligent for party-loving, immature Harry. He needs to grow up, a lot!

So she was studying t Leeds Uni? Intersting how she could be clubbing, going to Sandringham, Twickenham after a hard days worth of studying? Yeah, I'll bet she never goes to lectures and never graduates.

Only 2 people know the truth from the rumours. They are young persons with a life ahead-be it together or seperately. Let them chose their own destinys.

By Dr Suzie.. Posted January 25 2009 at 5:13 PM.
Shame, they looked so good together. I presume we will now see Chelsy in next years CBB or Im a Celebrity...
Anyway, shame they broke up, hope she doesn't become one of those 'famous for being famous' idiots, like most do.
By Andrew Giles Róberts.. Posted January 25 2009 at 3:30 PM.
look in todays world sex partners are like everything else. the ones in the limelight are jumping in and out of eachothers bed so what is the big deal.
if after they both have sowed their oats maby they will find eachother. if it is ment to be it will happen. if not then they should be allowed to live their lives in peace. i wish u both well

i wish them both well,
By maggi.. Posted January 25 2009 at 2:36 PM.
Who cares about Harry and Chelsey, it's trivial and their business. At a time when people are loosing their jobs in droves, stabbings and shootings are a common occurrence, foreigners, wanted in their own countries for serious crimes are allowed to enter and stay here and children are abused and killed by parents, while those services responsible for protecting them don't do their jobs properly, do you really think that the love life of these two should be high on our list of concerns?
By J Greenop.. Posted January 25 2009 at 1:51 PM.
I wish that Middleton would get the chop.

Some of the mean spiritedness comments on this board are nothing short of astonishing. What's your problem? Seriously. Have a read of yourselves!
By Bee.. Posted January 25 2009 at 11:40 AM.
Perhaps she didn't want to lose her dignity, unlike KM who lost hers years ago and continues to hang-on and do whatever it takes to bag a Prince. Chelsy at the very least had a career she was keen to follow through. I have come to the conclusion that these two princes don't want a partner in life who is a threat or a challenge. They need someone who is available when THEY want and are at their beck and call, day or night. It doesn't look good for a woman to be in that sort of relationship......it makes them look cheap and available, which Chelsy obviously wasn't!
By John.. Posted January 25 2009 at 11:51 AM.
Reading these comments just confirms how rife the pathetic 'celebrity' culture has become amongst the low IQ brigade.
By Hugh Jars.. Posted January 25 2009 at 11:50 AM.
Does this mean Harry's going to resort to type and start going on mad benders again?...oh silly me!...I forgot...he, Willam, Beatrice and Eugenie do that anyway already about 3 or 4 times a week...
By Ali Sichilongo.. Posted January 25 2009 at 11:45 AM.
like when wills and kate "split" for publicity...these two will be back soon!

By Major James hewitt.. Posted January 25 2009 at 10:52 AM.
William needs to dump the other one. She's a lazy so and so with jowls... wont age well me thinks...
By liz.. Posted January 25 2009 at 10:54 AM.
Both of them need to look outside the box. They both come from money. If Harry and his brother look for someone like thier mother, they were find true love and not for their money or class. Love is not found by the class of people or what they have, but what they have to offer in love and committment. What right does the Queen have to put on a time limit for love? Love come and goes with life it self it's what you make of it.I hope everyone finds true love without someone telling them this is the one or not.
By April.. Posted January 25 2009 at 10:32 AM.
Anyone who marries into the most disfunctional family in Britain does so at their peril. They neither know how to demonstrate love or how to behave as a family without the cameras. I was beginning to think Wills and Harry would be the first, but lets be honest the so called 'firm' would think they were getting another Fergie. Harry is the odd man out, spare child of the future monarch, looking back at history he is behaving exactly as his forebearers did.
By lyn.. Posted January 25 2009 at 10:31 AM.
without her parents money, she would just be a normal white middle class girl looking for the best catch she can find. she is getting no committment for marriage, and can we really see her sitting on the throne?? hum could that be anything to do with her dumping him??
By greendog.. Posted January 25 2009 at 9:29 AM.
well what do you expect , Harry is a soldier , and can't drop everything to do as she pleases ,as all soldiers wifes and girlfriends know , and oh one more little thing he is third in line to the throne
By margaret.. Posted January 25 2009 at 9:28 AM.
Maybe Harry was fed up with all the Facebbok photos of Chelsy? The ones where she is drunk, the ones where she is lying in another man's arms, the ones where cigarettes are hanging out of her mouth in public places? Could be that she has behaved in a way that made more people than Harry worry. Could they be right to worry?
By mar.. Posted January 25 2009 at 9:17 AM.
You guys should give Happy a break! The guy is a human being like us yet has passed through what some of us can't see in a lifetime. Irrespective of the partying,he is more humane than a lot of people. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Chelsy, your loss!

By Noni.. Posted January 25 2009 at 8:40 AM.
It is about time! Chelsy has wonderful career aspects to pursue. Harry is a child and his mother's early death has had a great impact on his life. One day when he is grown up he will definately find the right girl......perhaps he will meet a girl in the barracks???

What's the use of The Royals if they don't have massivley lavish Weddings to entertain us all? Once The pomp and splendour has gone so will they.
By Craig Earley.. Posted January 25 2009 at 6:15 AM.
she is zimbabwean and being 23 is already way too mature to endure an uneasy relationship..i wish harry and chelsea the best in thier different paths..
By dark night.. Posted January 25 2009 at 6:14 AM.
A law carreer over Harry??!!!??!! All men flirt, that is their nature. We have to get used to it. They are like animals, they cannot help it. If they cheat, that's another thing. They have to go after that. Don't know if he actually cheated, but if he did, well, then he has to go. But if he didn't, I'd not burn any bridges girl.............
By jeanne.. Posted January 25 2009 at 5:22 AM.
They are both very young and still in their career training, they need time apart to think of their future, no one can do that for them. Give they space and time.
By J.Henry.. Posted January 25 2009 at 4:24 AM.
Christ he's hot.
By Canuck.. Posted January 25 2009 at 3:58 AM.
Why not give Harry a moment's thought just for once. He's a real person..GIVE HIM A BREAK!
By Jimbo.. Posted January 25 2009 at 2:51 AM.
What a shame that their every move was so public. What a hard life to live!

lovely,i hope kate whatever and william are next.they need real women.kate looks too controlling
By malinda.. Posted January 24 2009 at 10:53 PM.
Which leaves her not suitable for marriage to some, young, dark, handsome man with prospects! Too embarrassing to take her home to meet one's parents, she being a sort of someone else's turn-by. Ugh!!
By RJ.. Posted January 24 2009 at 10:39 PM.
They are both still young. After having been together for five years, they are both now free to openly mix with others of the opposite sex.
I especially like my countrywoman Chelsey, because it is obvious that she had not been courting Harry, merely because of his royal status. She is the one that seemingly ditched him.
By Frank Hartry.. Posted January 24 2009 at 10:01 PM.
Just a trick to throw off the extremests, me thinks!!!
By renee.. Posted January 24 2009 at 7:55 PM.
Chelsy is an intellectual girl, while Harry and William are really only interested in sport and clubbing. These differences would have become greater as time went on. I am glad they split now rather than after they had children.
I like both Harry and Chelsy and I wish them each all the best for their futures.
By Inge Jones.. Posted January 24 2009 at 7:18 PM.
Well, I am happy because I am available.
So Chelsey, email me and we can get togother and will offer u the love and affection whicg which u deserve

I don't think she was really the girl for him-Hope they both find happiness again.
