Prince Harry, trying to shed his image as Britain’s fun-loving royal, is planning an official visit to the United States in May though he won’t tour ‘sin city’ Las Vegas this time.
The 28-year-old grandson of Queen Elizabeth II has not included Las Vegas on his itinerary this time after nude pictures of him from a private visit to the country last year made the wrong kind of headlines across the globe.
‘Prince Harry is to tour the US to promote the rehabilitation of injured American and UK troops, publicise his own charities and support British interests,’ St James’s Palace said on Monday.
The third-in-line to the British throne will visit several American locations between 9 and 15 May, covering Washington DC, Denver, New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
He will watch the opening ceremony of the Warrior Games, in Colorado Springs, where injured servicemen and women will compete. Britain is entering a team for the first time in the games a Paralympic-style competition and the prince is known to be a supporter of the competition, after he met UK troops who took part as individuals last year.
He will also meet survivors of Hurricane Sandy in New Jersey and plans to stage a fundraising Sentebale Polo Cup match in Connecticut.
