London Evening Standard/Stewart Island

Prince Harry yesterday spoke of how he wants to find the love of his life to settle down and have children.
In a highly personal interview on his tour of New Zealand, the 30-year-old admitted that seeing his brother Prince William’s family grow has made him wish he had children of his own.
Harry said: “Of course I would love to have kids right now but there’s a process that one has to go through and tours like this are great fun. Hopefully I’m doing all right by myself. It would be great to have someone else next to me to share the pressure but you know the time will come and whatever happens, happens.”
Harry’s on and off three-year relationship with Cressida Bonas, 26, finally ended last year. His only other serious relationship was with South African Chelsy Davy, 30, that ended in 2011. It is understood that the prince, who is on his first royal tour since quitting the military, does not have a serious girlfriend at the moment.
Harry was a big hit yesterday with the 27 children who attend Halfmoon Bay School on Stewart Island, the southern-most inhabited island in New Zealand, with just 380 residents. His week-long trip will cover every corner of the country and follows his month-long attachment with the Australian Defence Force.
Speaking to Sky News royal correspondent Rhiannon Mills, on the balcony of his bungalow on the island, he talked about missing the chance to meet his new niece, Charlotte. He said he was looking forward to returning home to hold her. “I didn’t see any coverage at all,” Harry added.
“He (Prince William) sent me two photos, one before everybody else, which was nice, and then another one with George back home. I’m so looking forward to seeing her, to meeting her and to holding her.
“She was a little bit late hence I missed her, so she’ll have to work on that but apart from that it’s fantastic news for both of them so I’m thrilled.”
While on Stewart Island, Harry spent an evening at the only pub and enjoyed a feisty quiz with locals. His team ‘The Ginger Ninjas’ finished second.
The relaxed prince was comfortable with the travelling media entering a team in the quiz.
Talking about his first royal tour since leaving the army he said: “The intention always was to try and get to every single corner of New Zealand and meet as many different tribes, backgrounds and people as New Zealand has to offer.
“To come here, where according to a lot of the Stewart Island population they are slightly left out of everything, I can see why because they are slightly out of the way, but it was just a really nice opportunity to come down here and see people that live the really simple life and away from all the chaos of cities and stuff like that.
“I don’t know how we managed to do quite so well in the pub quiz but it was certainly a fantastic atmosphere inside there and the landlady was British so it was just like being at home.”
He also opened up about how both he and his brother want to have roles that command a wage to help keep them sane and make them feel like they are making a contribution.
“This part of the role (royal duties) is fantastic but I and William both feel as though we need to have a wage as well to work with normal people, to keep us sane, to keep us ticking along.”
Harry was put on the spot when a group of school children grilled him on issues, from the intricacies of the British monarchy to whether or not he lives in a castle. The pupils at Halfmoon Bay School turned the spotlight onto him during an assembly performance.
One girl asked him what he was going to get Princess Charlotte and he replied that he’d been given lots of teddies and toys during his time in the country. He then asked her if she thought that it would be okay for him to take those things and claim that he had got them for her himself.
Next were questions about why his grandfather was not called king despite being married to the Queen and whether or not he lived in a castle. He said: “That’s a very good question, because he’s there to support her rather than bearing the responsibility 50-50. He would prefer to support her and be there for the rest of her life.
“Sadly I don’t live in castle and I don’t even own a crown either, but you do. The Queen has a castle which is pretty cool.”
One of the boys asked him what he had enjoyed most about Stewart Island, and he said: “No traffic, peace and quiet, beautiful sunrises, a school that’s small that means you get more attention from the teachers so you’ll turn out to be geniuses.”
