Kate Middleton, Prince William and Prince Harry Attend Remembrance Sunday Ceremony in London


Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Harry, Prince Philip

The royal family paid tribute and honored the memory of British army personnel who lost their lives in conflict on Sunday, Nov. 10. Queen Elizabeth II, Prince William, Kate Middleton and Prince Harry attended the annual commemoration, also known as Remembrance Sunday, in Central London at the Cenotaph war memorial. The Duchess of Cambridge looked svelte in a black coat, black gloves and a stylish black beret. She donned a poppy pin, which is a symbol to honor those who have died in combat. Prince George's mom styled her luxurious brunette locks in soft waves. She watched from a nearby balcony as her husband participated in the ceremony, and stood with Sophie, Countess of Essex and Sir Tim Laurence, Princess Anne's husband. Queen Elizabeth II, wearing a black coat and matching hat, lead the service and was joined by her grandsons as well as her husband, Prince Philip. Prince William paid his respect to the fallen and laid a wreath of red poppies at the monument. Prince Harry filled in for his father, Prince Charles, who is in India, and also laid a wreath. Thousands paused at 11 a.m. to honor the fallen, according to the BBC. The beginning of the moment of silence began when Big Ben struck and ended with the "firing of a round by the King's Troop Royal Horse Artillery, using a 13-pounder World War One gun." The service is held at the 11th hour on the Sunday closest to the anniversary of the end of World War I, Nov. 11, 1918.

Prince Harry Gets in a Workout Before Prince George's Christening—but Is the Royal Nursing an Injury?!


Prince Harry

Though most eyes will be on wee Prince George when Kate Middleton and Prince William's son is christened Wednesday afternoon in London, Prince Harry will presumably be getting a few glances, too. And he'll be nothing if not in shape for the occasion! Harry worked out at The Third Space, London's most luxurious gym, on Tuesday amid reports that his girlfriend, Cressida Bonas, was not invited to George's christening in order to help ensure that the matter at hand—baptizing the royal baby—would remain the focus of the day. But though we doubt that Harry's feelings are too hurt, considering how versed he is with royal protocol, William's baby brother may be aching in another way. After getting his sweat on, Harry then spent at least an hour meeting with a specialist at the Third Space Medical Centre, one of Britain's leading physiotherapy practices. He left at around 4 p.m., local time—and we're told that he looked to be in good spirits after his session. "He had a huge smile on his face as he left the gym," said a source. "His security guy was with him the whole time he was there, but other than that he just slotted right in like any other member." Of course, the Soho gym's other members include the likes of Guy Richie, who's been spotted wresting in the dojo room. Professional rugby players Alex Corbisiero and James Haskel, and John Terry, former captain of the national football team, have also sought treatment at the medical center. And tomorrow, Harry will suit up and join his family at 3 p.m. at the Chapel Royal at St. James' Palace for his nephew's christening. The Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most. Reverend Justin Welby, will perform the baptism and official photographs, to be released Oct. 24, will be taken at Clarence House following the service.

Prince Harry Hits Australia for International Fleet Review


 Prince Harry

Prince Harry's first official visit to Australia was a success. The red-headed royal stopped by the International Fleet Review in Sydney Saturday, getting a warm welcome from a big crowd (and a 100-gun salute), according to Yahoo! Australia. Prince Harry, who was on hand to represent the royal family, donned his white British Army uniform and blue beret for the event, which was held to celebrate the 100 years since the Royal Australian Navy fleet first entered the Sydney Harbor. Following the salute, the prince hopped on a boat to Kirrbilli House, where Prime Minister Tony Abbott, his wife Margie and daughters Bridget and Frances greeted him. The Australia visit is just the latest of Prince Harry's royal duties. Kensington Palace announced Friday the 29-year-old royal will visit and officially open the Royal British Legion Centre for Blast Injury Studies at Imperial College London Oct. 17.

Prince Harry & Girlfriend Cressida Bonas Go Out to Watch Book of Mormon in London


Prince Harry, Cressida Bonas

Prince Harry and Cressida Bonas are definitely taking advantage of the time they have together. The always-busy royal and his girlfriend were spotted leaving The Prince of Wales Theater in London tonight after attending a performance of the musical Book of Mormon. Cressida looked casual-chic in skinny pants, boots, a plaid jacket and navy blouse to match her beau's navy and white outfit (we're starting to think that's his favorite color). Their eventful evening out marked the second date night in a row for these lovebirds.The duo was spotted enjoying an intimate concert by "You're Beautiful" singer James Blunt at the Tabernacle in London last night. Harry and Cressida's evening was also a bit of a family affair as his cousin Princess Beatrice joined the couple along with her boyfriend, Dave Clark. Blunt's gig was designed to promote his new album Moon Landing and celebrity guests included Ed Sheeran, Graham Norton and Harvey Weinstein.

Happy Birthday, Prince Harry! Royal Hunk Turns 29


Prince Harry

It's a special day for Prince Harry! The handsome young royal and new uncle is celebrating his 29th birthday today, but it seems as though Prince William's li'l brother is choosing to keep his festivities private. There haven't been any reports detailing what Harry has chosen to do for his big day, but considering what a busy year he's had, it wouldn't be a surprise if he decided to just relax with his close friends and family and do something small. Along with taking on the new title of Uncle Harry to the precious Prince George, the royal has been keeping busy with maintaining a long list of appearances and events. Earlier this week, Harry was the guest of honor at an awards ceremony put on by WellChild, a charity he patronizes that supports sick children and their families, and that was just one stop on the day's agenda. He also attended a fundraiser with Wills in honor of the 658 BGC Partners employees who were killed on Sept. 11, 2001, at the World Trade Center. The brothers even took a turn at the trading desk themselves and helped broker a 25 billion euro transaction. Here's to hoping this busy bee had an amazing day!

Prince Harry Ends U.S. Tour with Polo Match for Charity in Connecticut—See the Royal on His High Horse!


Nothing like ending a whirlwind trip to America with a bang goal. Prince Harry rounded out his visit to the United States today with a friendly polo match in Greenwich, Conn., where he proved that he's got some royally awesome skills on the field (clearly, he's no novice). Harry first had a delightful lunch before playing in front of 400 guests in the Sentebale Royal Salute Polo Cup held at the Greenwich Polo Club. "Thank you for a wonderful week," Prince Harry reportedly said in a speech before taking the field. "I have witnessed the extraordinary generosity of the people of this great nation." The polo match wasn't just for fun: It also helped raise $1 million for Harry's Sentebale ("forget me not" in Sesotho) charity, which aids children in poverty in Lesotho, which is entirely landlocked by South Africa. "The HIV pandemic continues to leave thousands of children without parents and family structures to guide them through life," Harry said. "Without this support, basic needs such as food, shelter and care remain unmet, leaving children vulnerable and very often without much hope in their lives." The nearly five-hour finale to the young royal's U.S. tour featured some other famous guests, including Melanie Brown (aka Mel B), Gayle King, Owen Wilson, Karolina Kurkova and designers Jason Wu and Valentino. Ultimately, Prince Harry's team took the match, 4-3—a bright end to rainy afternoon before he had to head back home to the U.K.

Prince Harry Hits Denver, Sings "Happy Birthday" to Olympian Missy Franklin


Prince Harry is making his way around the States. Fresh off his White House visit on Thursday, the red-headed royal continued his American tour with a trip to Denver for a special reception at Sanctuary Golf Course on Friday. Prior to heading in to the celebration for the 2013 Warrior Games, a competition for wounded military veterans, the prince shook hands with mayor Michael Hancock and grabbed a drink as he hobnobbed with U.S. Olympians Missy Franklin and Jessica Long. Long, who is a Paralympic swimmer, brought along her medals for Prince Harry to see, and held them up in front of his face at one point with a laugh. And it was a memorable day for Franklin too, who was celebrating her birthday and was surprised with a big cake. The crowd, including Prince Harry, sang "Happy Birthday" to help the swimmer ring in her big 1-8. This was the second stop of Prince Harry's seven-day visit to the States. He is set to attend the Warrior Games in Colorado Springs today to watch more than 200 veterans who have been wounded due to combat compete in a variety of athletic events, including archery and wheelchair basketball. "The Warrior games is something unique," British Ambassador to the U.S. Peter Westmacott said as Prince Harry stood next to him at a podium. "We are very proud…we are thrilled Prince Harry is here for the opening."
