Prince Harry admits Queen's opinion of Chelsy Davy played role in break-up
Prince Harry said the Queen’s opinion of his ex-girlfriend Chelsy Davy caused their break-up, it's been claimed.
The couple dated on and off for seven years after meeting as teenagers but Chelsy called time on the relationship after telling Harry royal life was not for her.
The Zimbabwean-born businesswoman first started dating Harry back in 2004 when she was a boarder at Stowe School, before they went their separate ways in 2011.
Now the Duke of Sussex said his grandmother’s opinion of Chelsy contributed to their break-up, according to his a leaked version of his book, Spare.

“I couldn’t help what my grandmother thought about it. Or the people. And the last thing I wanted was for Chels to change to please them,” Harry wrote, according to Page Six.
Earlier this year Chelsy tied the knot with hotelier Sam Cutmore-Scott five months after welcoming their first child, a son named Leo.
Last year it was reported she described her relationship with the Duke of Sussex as "scary and uncomfortable".

“I found it very difficult when it was bad. I couldn’t cope. I was young, I was trying to be a normal kid and it was horrible.”
Chelsy was constantly questioned about her relationship with Harry during their relationship, and at the time was juggling a career in leverage law.
Pictures of her leaving nightclubs ended up splashed in the newspapers when she did have time to socialise with friends, and this, along with the stress of dating a royal, contributed to the relationship ending.
She said: “I like to enjoy life, but I like to achieve things and am very ambitious.
