It has been long disputed that the ginger haired royal is in fact the embodiment of a real life Prince Charming.

What’s not to love about Prince Harry? The 31-year-old is constantly walking the line of where cheeky meets charismatic – and the public adores it!

He may have lived a privileged life, but for Captain Wales, his proudest moment is serving his country. The former Army helicopter pilot has completed two tours of Afghanistan during his 10 years in the British army.

Princess Diana’s youngest son also pours plenty of effort into charities representing kids and animals – which over the years has resulted in plenty of Kodak moments for us to swoon over!

While the cheeky and charming Prince may woo us with his heroic ways, we must mention his equally appealing bad boy past.

During his tour of Lesotho and South Africa, he admitted during his school days he always wanted to be a “bad boy.”

“I didn’t enjoy school at all! When I was at school I wanted to be the bad boy.” Harry admitted to a group of youths at Ottery Youth Centre in Cape Town, last year.

One thing is certain, the reformed wild child has us all swooning… In Captain Wales honour, we relive his smoothest moments!

It’s official, Prince Harry was born charming!

He has his mother’s touch: Prince Harry carries on Princess Diana’s legacy through his numerous charitable endeavors.

“Every day, I know I do and I’m sure William does as well, whatever we do, wherever we are and whoever we’re with, I particularly always wonder what she’d think, what she’d be doing if she was with us now,’ said Harry in 2010 during his tour of Africa.

A military man at heart: Captain Wales embraced Afghan veteran Kirstie Ennis, following their 1000 mile trek of Britain for the charity, Walk of Britain. The former solider was moved when Kirstie gave him a dog tag in memory of a colleague killed in a Taliban blast.

When the former pilot is off duty, he loves being super adorable with kids. Imagine the mischief he and naughty Prince George get up to!?

Colour me yes… Henry can paint. Is there anything he can’t do?

Passionate about the armed forces, Harry admitted he understood that dangers that came with serving, “If the guys who are doing the same job as us are being shot at on the ground, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with us being shot at as well. People back home have issues with that, but we’re not special – the guys out there are.”

“I think Harry’s got a very free spirit and a very intuitive way of dealing with things, looking at problems. He very much throws himself into it wholeheartedly. He’s got a big heart and he wants to make a difference,” Prince William quipped during an interview in 2010.

“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,” Harry admitted. For now he can focus on being a pretty terrific uncle to Prince George and darling Princess Charlotte.

When Catherine and Harry attend royal functions together, you can rely on them to significantly brighten your day. Harry says, “To have a big sister is very, very nice…She’s a fantastic girl, she really is, my brother is very lucky!

The self-proclaimed former wild child admits he always wanted to be a “bad boy.” And when you put that “bad boy” on a motorbike… What’s not to love?

When Prince Harry met Harry Styles: Britain’s two favoruite cheeky men came face-to-face at the Royal Variety Performance. “When was the last time you had a haircut?” the Prince asked the 1D star, who quipped, “I’m not planning on it right now!”

The charming Brit chatted to 97-year old Winifred Hodson during a visit to see the impact of recent floods in St Michael’s on Wyre in northwest England on February 5, 2016.

Who’s better? Bond vs Captain Wales. We’d back Harry! The Prince shares a chuckle with Daniel Craig.

Joking he said, “I’m slowly starting to feel old…I’m actually quite old. I don’t feel too old, I think I am always young at heart.”

Introducing the polo playing Prince. That’s right, Harry… on a horse!

Just like Catherine, Harry is a keen photographer.

He may have been born into royalty, but the good-natured Brit is honest about what life in the bright lane is really like: “To be honest, dinner conversations were the worst bit about being a child and listening to the boring people around me.”

You are one dashing man, Prince Harry. Never change!
