Laura Wright claims she would love to be a princess, ahead of meeting Britain's Prince Harry next month.

The 23-year-old soprano singer and women's rugby player - who sang for Queen Elizabeth six times in one year - will meet the flame-haired royal at the Suffolk Show in Ipswich next week and she's admitted she was thrilled to find out he would be attending.

She said: "I've been to it [the Suffolk Show] since I was a kid and I'll be having lunch with Harry and a few other people. That's right, the newly single Prince Harry who loves rugby. I was really chuffed when I got the invitation."

The brunette beauty - who plays professional rugby for Rosslyn Park - first rose to fame when she won BBC Radio 2's Chorister of the Year competition at just 15-years-old and she's since sung the national anthem at a number of England rugby matches.

She admits that meeting Prince Harry, 29 - who recently split from his long-term girlfriend Cressida Bonas - will be a dream come true, but claims she isn't interested in a fling with the royal.

She told the Daily Mail newspaper: "Every little girl wants to be a princess at some point. Maybe he wouldn't want a princess that plays rugby, though. I don't want to be a rebound."

Meanwhile, it's been reported that Harry and Cressida have been meeting up to discuss the future of their relationship in recent weeks.
