The prince and Chelsy Davy were at London's Azteca Latin Lounge when an intoxicated man bombarded Harry with verbal abuse on May 2.
According to witnesses the man shouted, “I [bleep]ing hate the Royal family. Who do you think you are in here? Why don’t you p*** off to Iraq and get yourself killed, you ginger t***.”
The young royal’s protection officers stepped in and removed the drunken thug from the upmarket cocktail bar.
“This guy came out of nowhere and just started hurling abuse at Prince Harry. There didn’t seem to be any reason for it. You could see the guy had clearly had a lot to drink,” The Sun quoted a witness, as saying.
“Harry’s reaction was one of shock. He stood facing the guy — and then the chap lunged at Harry as if he was trying to punch him. That was when his bodyguards intervened. It could have got ugly but Harry kept his temper and let it sort itself out,” the witness added.
A spokesman for Clarence House said that the verbal rant was not followed by any physical attack.
“An individual lunged at Prince Harry but there was no physical contact. There was no scuffle,” the spokesman said.
The 22-year-old prince and Chelsy were enjoying the little time they have left together before Harry’s Iraq deployment.
