More Photos of Prince Harry and Chelsy at Rugby Match

Prince Harry cheered hard for England at the rugby match against South Africa last Saturday. Unfortunately, all the energy he could muster wasn’t enough to keep England afloat. They lost 42 to 6.
Prince Harry’s girlfriend, Chelsy Davy, was beside him during the match. She probably couldn’t cheer too hard for South Africa. But one of the photos below show her looking satisfied enough, while Prince Harry covered his face with his hands.

Prince Harry launched the Khumbu Challenge 09 yesterday, November 4, 2008, at the Devonport Naval Base in Plymouth.
The Khumbu Challenge 09 is an adventure challenge for British military personnel who have been wounded in battle. Participants to the expedition will aim to climb to Mt. Everest’s base camp.
The Ministry of Defence said places on the challenge will be offered to individuals injured in conflict to give them an opportunity to “enhance their rehabilitation programmes” and put them back in a military environment.
