Prince Harry – the man knows how to make headlines.

Whether he’s getting naked in Las Vegas hotel rooms, eyeing up Pippa Middleton or generally just cavorting about; it seems the British press, and public, can’t get enough of the third in line to the throne.
Perennially placed in the top ten lists of eligible bachelors and with a talent for discarding supermodel girlfriends – according to Facebook 306,503 of us do indeed think he is ‘the man’. Soldiers even took time out of their day to annoy their commanding officers by giving him a naked salute in honour of his most recent antics.
Having transformed himself into the definition of a loveable rogue, Harry’s affable charms and genuine personality seem to be ideally suited to his role as a 21st century royal. But what if he wasn’t one?
Below we meander through the ocean of possible careers for young Henry of Wales (seriously, has anybody ever called him Henry ?) if he wasn’t born into quite so prestigious a family.
Rock star
This one’s probably a bit obvious – I mean, who else have you ever heard of playing a game of strip pool ?
He’s definitely got the look of being more of a John Lydon than Harry Styles – and with his love of a gaffe or two he definitely wouldn’t last long in the squeaky clean world of pop.
So, it would have to be rock music then. And what with Josh Homme having lifted the ceiling so other strawberry blondes can stand, Harry would fit in perfectly. The man certainly knows how to rock his military uniforms so a leather jacket would be no problem.
Does anybody know if he can sing ?
Ski instructor
Despite his obviously wealthy upbringing, you can’t imagine him looking out of place bumming about on the slopes of the French Alps. Floppy fringe – check, can pull of a ski jacket – check, keen for a fancy dress party – …check.
With reports that Harry is even happy to fly Easyjet to indulge in his alpine passion, we’re sure the prince would relish the chance to be on the slopes full time.
Olympian
Whether it’s talent or privilege, the royals do seem fairly good at their sports. Princess Anne won a fair amount of equestrian medals over the years, with her daughter Zara Philips crowning these achievements off at London 2012 by galloping to an eventing silver.
And we know Harry’s got the beating of double-Olympic champion Usain Bolt so…who knows.
What do you think Harry would be good at ? Tell us in the comments section below
