Prince Harry

Britain's Prince Harry doesn't want a serious girlfriend until he completes a second tour of duty in Afghanistan.

The Apache helicopter pilot is determined to serve in the war-torn country again, four years after he was deployed there, and despite being linked to society beauty Cressida Bonas recently, Harry doesn't want a girlfriend to have to take on the worry and stress of him being away that his ex Chelsy Davy had to deal with.

A source told express.co.uk: 'I think Harry has learned from that and would not want to put anyone else - or indeed himself - through that worry again. Who knows in matters of the heart what will happen, but at this stage Harry wants to be deployed without ties.'

Prince Harry recently revealed he has always wanted children, but just needs to find the right woman who is willing to take on the life of a royal.

He said: 'I've longed for kids since I was very, very young. And so...I'm waiting to find the right person, someone who's willing to take on the job.'
