Prince William swapped his flying helmet for an extravagantly plumed hat at today’s Most Noble Order of the Garter Service.

The future king, who was created a knight of Britain's oldest order of chivalry last year, took part in the annual procession alongside his father, grandmother and grandfather in the precincts of Windsor Castle.

Founded by Edward 111 in 1348, there is a maximum of 24 companion knights at any one time and their number is usually made up of senior politicians, members of the Royal Family and eminent public figures.

Knights of the order are required to display a banner of arms at the chapel, together with a helmet, crest and sword and an enamelled stallplate. They also carry the letters KG after their name for life.

Unusually, the honour is in the Queen's personal gift without advice from Government ministers and William's inclusion is the first of several offices he will hold as his royal duties increase.

Dressed in a blue velvet cloak and black hat complete with ostrich plume, the 26-year-old prince, who is currently training to become an RAF Search and Rescue helicopter pilot, towered over his father and other family members, which included the Duke of York, the Princess Royal and Earl of Wessex.

Prince Harry has been voted Britain's most eligible bachelor by a panel of judges which included the television presenter rumoured to be his girlfriend.



The Prince topped this year's list of 50 men chosen by celebrities for the women's magazine Company.

Among the judges was Gladiators presenter Caroline Flack, with whom the Prince was photographed in a car after a night out in London last weekend.

The Prince, who split with Chelsy Davy at the start of the year, beat off rivals including Twilight star Robert Pattinson, Prison Break's Wentworth Miller and Richard Branson's son Sam, to take the top spot.

Editor Victoria White said of the judging process: "Caroline did seem a bit distracted and now we know why."

She went on: "The decision was unanimous between the judges - our readers are really starting to love Prince Harry and see him as a highly eligible bachelor - he's posh and polite, yet rugged, fun and down-to-earth at the same time.

PRINCE Harry is desperate to get back with Chelsy Davy after ending his fling with sexy Sky TV presenter Caroline Flack, The Sun can reveal.

The lovelorn Royal, 24, told a friend: "I lost the best thing that ever happened to me and I'm paying for it."

And he told Gladiators host Caroline, 29, she will never replace Chelsy, his first true love, according to Palace sources.

Harry and Caroline spent a night together at his private London apartment last weekend. But he has decided they will never be more than good friends.

News of the split came amid steamy claims yesterday about Caroline's past.

She was reported to have once frolicked in a hot tub with rock legend Ozzy Osbourne's son Jack, 23, and another girl.

The stunning brunette was also said to have had a string of famous exes, including TV womaniser Russell Brand.

LES HAVE A KISS: Cheeky Caroline & girl pal

Gladiators TV presenter Caroline, 29, has a string of famous exes including Russell Brand. She had several dates with Jack and they shared bathtime frolics at his Los Angeles home.

A pal said: "Jack was smitten but for Caroline it was all about who he was, not because she particularly liked him. She described the hot tub romp as 'nothing more than kisses and boobs'. But she always goes for big names, and it looks like she's hit the jackpot with Prince Harry."
