All's fair in love and war: What now for Harry and Chelsy?

Harry said in his interviews that going to war could prove a turning point for him.

But whether he will seize the chance he has been given in Afghanistan - and the boost it will undoubtedly give to his popularity - or squander it in yet another drinking den is yet to be seen.

Crucial to the way the prince will conduct himself on his return will be the influence of his on-off girlfriend of three years, Chelsy Davy.

The couple broke up shortly before the prince left for war, with Zimbabwean-born Chelsy blaming the split on his lack of support during her move to Leeds as a post-graduate student.

Although the prince did not mention the 22-year-old during his interviews, the Mail can reveal that the couple are back in contact and are looking forward to working on their relationship when Harry returns.

Things are not likely to be easy, however.

Rumours have been circulating for weeks that Chelsy has became close to another man, something Harry's advisers have been desperate to keep from him.
