The 30-year-old royal has confessed he is desperate to have children but conceded he needs to find the right person to settle down with to "share the pressure".

He said: "There come times when you think now is the time to settle down, or now is not, whatever way it is but I don't think you can force these things, it will happen when it's going to happen.

"Of course I would love to have kids right now but there's a process that one has to go through and tours like this are great fun, hopefully I'm doing all right by myself, it would be great to have someone else next to me to share the pressure, but you know, time will come and whatever happens, happens."

The news comes just a week after Harry's older brother Prince William welcomed his second child with Duchess Catherine, named Princess Charlotte Elizabeth Diana, and although he has been on a military trip to New Zealand since before the birth, he managed to stay in close contact with his family.

Speaking to Sky News royal correspondent Rhiannon Mills, he said: "I didn't see any coverage at all. He [William] sent me two photos, one before everybody else which was nice, and then another one with her back with George back home, so I'm so looking forward to seeing her, to meeting her and to holding her.

"She was a little bit late, hence I missed her, so she'll have to work on that, but apart from that it's fantastic news for both of them so I'm thrilled."
