We get the whole thing about Prince William -- he's built like a shining lighthouse of Englishness and he's got his mom's eyes and smile. Fair enough. But in our humble opinion, our favorite of the young Royals has always been and remains Prince Henry of Wales, AKA Prince Harry, the ginger-haired 23-year old third heir to the English throne and, as you probably know, the subject of some unfortunate media attention over the last few days. We're not generally partial to bad boys, or guys with guns (though maybe we should let Scanner Emily speak for herself on that one). But then, we're kinda of the mind that Harry's never really gotten a fair break in ye olde press in the first place. Like that time a couple years back when he caught hell for going to a party in a Nazi uniform. What, we were concerned that the ghost of Adolf Eichmann was gonna take over his mind or something?
And now -- just as the poor kid's gotten comfy in a whole other set of fatigues, and all because of some fedora'd fuckwit in Florida -- Harry's got to cool his heels back in Jolly Olde for a while. Well, here's what we're guessing: he's already trying to figure out the next thing to do. Maybe it's in the military, maybe it's in another type of service, but take a look at that kid up there and just try to tell us that he's gonna sit around moping in Buckingham Castle and playing Playstation all day. He'll do something worthwhile, mark our words.
You got a bum rap, kid -- but we're pretty sure that you're gonna make the most of it. And if you can keep that mane of yours trimmed, you're probably gonna be dating some right foxy birds while you do it.
And for that, he is our Crush of the Week.
