Prince Harry Girlfriend: Is He Dating Mollie King, Singer of The Saturdays?
Sorry, royal hopefuls -- it looks like Prince Harry has found a new girlfriend in singer Mollie King.
According to the Daily Express, Harry and King, who is a member of the UK girl group The Saturdays, have known each other for about two years, but have been out and about in bars in the past few weeks.
It's very early days for them but they're head over heels, a source told the Daily Express, while others added that the new couple have been keeping the relationship a secret.
King, 24, is from Wandsworth, London, and has been on the music scene for a number of years. She first auditioned for The X Factor in 2005 (and failed to make it to the televised rounds), before being a part of another girl-group, Fallen Angelz, one year later. King then left to pursue a career with The Saturdays, who have released three studio albums to date, including 2011's On Your Radar.
According to the Daily Express, Harry, 27, first met King in July 2010, when he was playing polo at the Asprey World Class Cup in Surrey. The meeting was not accidental, as the report claims that Zara Phillips (Harry's cousin), is good friends with King's fellow Saturdays member Una Healy.
So what else do we know about Mollie King?
She has more than 498,000 followers on Twitter, and updates her fans on a regular basis on topics including what she watches on YouTube, to new releases from The Saturdays to the recent Easter holiday.
Happy easter everyone! I have just eaten THE biggest roast dinner!!! Now on to the eggs . . ., she wrote on Sunday.
King also has a good sense of humor, as exemplified by her reaction to the Angelina Jolie right leg fiasco from the Oscars in February.
She is probably THE most beautiful woman but this pic someone's made is just TOO funny! King wrote at the time, attaching a photo of Jolie and her famous legs.
At 24, King is also the second oldest member of The Saturdays. (Healy is 30, while the remaining members are 22 and 23 years old). Before pursuing a career in singing, King had a promising ski career, becoming the youngest to represent Great Britain on the British Alpine squad.
According to her profile on The Saturdays' website, King lists Carrie Bradshaw as her idol, hates Skittles and cheers up whenever Gossip Girl is on. King also loves saying, Check this bad boy out!
From his highly-publicized on-and-off relationship with Chelsy Davy, to rumors of a romantic fling with sister-in-law Pippa Middleton, Harry and his love life have always been under close watch from hopeful fans and royal enthusiasts alike.
Pippa? Ha! No, I am not seeing anyone at the moment. I'm 100 percent single . . . I'm working a lot at the moment, so dating and watching TV are the last things I have time for, Harry said at the Hard Rock Calling concert in London in June 2011, the Daily Mail reports.
In other Prince Harry news, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (William and Kate) have a new neighbor at the Kensington Palace compound.
In late March, Harry moved from Clarence Houseover to a one-bedroom apartment at the Palace, joining his big brother and sister-in-law. The move is only temporary, as William and Kate have plans to move to a long-term home in 2013.
