Royal Rift for Prince Harry and Chelsy Davy?

Good news for those who prefer your royals red-haired and a little rebellious (if you consider supposedly snorting vodka and donning a Nazi uniform for a costume party a "little" rebellious): Prince Harry may be back on the market, at least for a little while.

Britain's Mail on Sunday says Chelsy Davy, his babelicious blond girlfriend of more than three years, has given him the heave-ho, ostensibly because she's annoyed with his party boy antics (in October, he reportedly took in a rugby match instead of attending her birthday celebration) and the idea of being "pigeon-holed as a princess."

"She still loves him," a Chelsy source tells the paper, "but she feels she needs to carve an identity as her own person rather than as Prince Harry's girlfriend."

But, the insider adds optimistically, "This is not an over-for-good situation."

The prince, 23, is said to be devastated over being drop-kicked by Davy, 22, a South African socialite who recently moved to England to study law at Leeds University (she may soon ditch the school, too, according to the London Sun).

Harry has purportedly been "bombarding" her with text messages and phone calls, with a pal explaining to the Mail, "He is keen to see her to talk things through."

But on Friday night, not long after their apparent bust-up, Harry seemed more keen to chit-chat with a "leggy brunette" at a London hot spot, where he and some pals rang up a $4,000 bar tab, reports the Daily Mirror (one of his buddies paid the bill).

"That's Harry all over, unfortunately," laments an insider to the Mail. "He is truly besotted with Chelsy. The trouble is that he is also incredibly immature. Going out and getting drunk is his way of letting off steam. He really does need to grow up."
