Prince Harry Ready To Settle Down, Looking For A Suitable Army Wife—Report

The biggest edition of "The Bachelor" might soon unfold in real life and not on a TV series. Reports surfaced that England's Prince Harry is looking for a wife and might be getting ready to settle down. After the marriage of his older brother Prince William to Kate Middleton, all eyes have been on Prince Harry and who would be his own fairy tale princess.

Prince Harry, who is a captain in the Blues and Royals since 2011 and is also an Apache helicopter pilot, has been very serious with his military career. He is not in the army only as a figurehead but is involved heavily with the troops and is doing his part alongside other soldiers. He even caused some controversy when he was first reported to have been deployed to Afghanistan. Now that he has his sights set on a promotion to Major, The Sunday People reports that he has told friends that he feels that finding an Army wife to stand beside him is something to be considered.

According to the reports, Harry feels that finding a suitable Army wife to support him in his position in the military and in the Royal Family will help him in fulfilling his duties. Finding the right combination of a woman who can deal with the responsibilities as well as the public scrutiny is the challenge. Not only will Harry's future wife have to deal with the responsibilities, she will also be facing a life that's often away from her husband whenever he is deployed for duty. Despite this, Royal and military commitments would have to be dealt with and Harry feels that climbing the ranks in the military is something that he can't do as a bachelor.

Harry previously had a long-term relationship with Chelsy Davy, which lasted seven years. His most recent relationship is with stage actress and socialite Cressida Bonas with whom he broke up in April this year after speculations came out that the two were already planning to get married. They have since been spotted together on several occasions but it remains unclear if they are dating again. Prince Harry has earned the reputation of being the "Party Prince" when several photos of him were leaked back in 2012 while he was playing strip billiards with six women.

Harry is now 30 years old and many of his colleagues who entered the Royal Academy with him have now settled down. A commanding officer's wife is often tasked with several duties including communicating with other spouses about the status of their deployed husbands, often having to deliver bad news. In a further show of committment to his military duties, Harry celebrated Remembrance Sunday among the troops in Afghanistan.
