Chelsy hands Prince Harry apartment keys

Prince Harry and Chelsy Davy's relationship has reportedly stepped up a gear with the third-in-line to the throne being handed keys to her London apartment.

Harry, who spends his weekdays training as an Army Air Corps helicopter pilot in Hampshire, is increasingly using Davy's flat as a weekend base, reports The Mail On Sunday.

Davy spent the New Year holidaying with the 25-year-old Prince following their reconciliation last autumn.

A source said: "He had quite a lot of his stuff there and said he preferred being there to Clarence House, which is not what you would expect of a palace. It's actually small and when William and Kate Middleton stay there as well, it's really cramped."

Clarence House declined to comment on the Prince's living arrangements.
