THE POP STARELLIE GOULDING

Harry and Ellie were spotted "canoodling" at the 2016 Audi Polo Challenge, sparking speculation that their friendship has turned romantic.

The "Burn" singer has a long history with the royal family having been selected by Prince William and Kate to perform at their wedding reception in 2011. She's also spent time with the royals at a variety of events, including the 2014 Invictus Games. The singer supported Harry's passion project by performing at the closing ceremonies.

The 29-year-old might be looking to settle down after having a string of highly publicized romances with EDM master Skrillex, actor Jeremy Irvine and Ed Sheeran.

THE EX-GIRLFRIENDCRESSIDA BONAS

The actress, dancer and model dated Harry for two years after her friend, his cousin Princess Eugenie, introduced them. They parted in April 2014 after she reportedly struggled with the scrutiny that comes with a royal romance. They have remained friends, though, with Harry watching her perform onstage and inviting her to his 31st birthday dinner last September. Since the split, Cressida has been linked to actor Edward Holcroft. Her acting career has also blossomed, with a string of TV and film roles. Photo: © Getty Images

THE FIRST LOVECHELSY DAVY

Harry’s on/off girlfriend from 2004 to 2011 reportedly ended the relationship to avoid the spotlight. As she once said, “It’s not a life for me.” The Zimbabwe-bornlawyer quit her job with a London law firm in 2014 and moved to South Africa to start a jewellery line called Aya Africa. She split with society jeweller Charles Goode a year ago, but rumours that she and Harry rekindled their romance proved unfounded. They have, however, stayed in touch. Photo: © Getty Images

THE BEAUTIFUL ACTRESSJENNA COLEMAN

The former Doctor Whostar sent hopes of a royal romance soaring when she was spotted deep in conversation with Harry at a polo match in 2015. Since then, however, the actress, 29, has been seen hand in hand with longtime love, Cinderella star Richard Madden. She and Harry are both passionate about helping vulnerable children; she’s an ambassador for the One to One Children’s Fund, which supports youngsters dealing with disease or trauma, while the prince co-founded Sentebale to help orphans in Lesotho.

Princess Maria-Olympia of Greece and Denmark may have the pedigree suitable for a royal bride but, at 19, she is much younger than Harry and a recent report that the pair are dating has been denied. They share a bond, however – both are descendants of Queen Victoria, and Harry’s father, Prince Charles, is Olympia’s godfather. Now studying in New York City, the London-raised princess often returns home to see her parents, Crown Prince Pavlos and Crown Princess Marie-Chantal, and her four younger siblings.

If Harry were searching for a soulmate who shared his interests, then 25-year-old model-turned-actress Lily would be a strong candidate. She is the granddaughter of Born Free Foundation founders Bill Travers and Virginia McKenna – whose stunning looks Lily is thrilled to have inherited. “People tell me I look like my granny and I’m proud of that,” she has said – and, like Harry, she is a passionate supporter of African wildlife conservation. By coincidence, she is about to portray one of Harry’s relatives in the film Viceroy’s House – the young Lady Pamela Mountbatten, cousin of the Duke of Edinburgh. Photo: © Rex
