Prince is spotted in a VERY cosy chat with actress at the polo...
HE claims he is happily single and not looking for love - but it seems Prince Harry can't resist turning on the charm when the opportunity strikes.
Yesterday, pictures emerged of the fifth in line to the throne with his hand on the knee of a pretty Doctor Who actress as they chatted intimately at the polo.
The prince, whom onlookers described as 'flirty and tactile', seemed delighted to be in the company of brunette Jenna Coleman, 29, after playing in a charity match last Saturday.
Harry, 30, led the actress by the hand out of the star-studded after-party to chat on a sofa outside.
Miss Coleman, who plays the Time Lord's assistant Clara Oswald in the hit BBC series, looked delighted at the attention - even though she shares a home with her boyfriend, the Game Of Thrones actor Richard Madden.
One onlooker said: 'Harry sneaked outside with Jenna. He took her by the hand and led her away from the crowd in the sponsor's tent. They sat alone and talked.
'It was a very flirty, very tactile encounter. She was leaning in to him and he had his hand on her knee. From their body language it looked like they were really enjoying each other's company.
'They were sitting very close, laughing lots and touching each other.
'I had no idea she had a boyfriend until afterwards, but I don't think he would have been very happy to see this.' Miss Coleman, who was wearing a sultry off-the-shoulder dress, was recently ranked 32nd in a list of the world's most desirable women. Earlier in the day, Harry had played in a polo match in aid of his African charity, Sentebale.
He stayed on afterwards to attend the party in the sponsor's. tent at Coworth Park, Ascot. Another guest said: 'Everyone had been dancing inside and [the prince and Jenna] were together in a group, but Harry obviously wanted to talk to her alone.'
A spokesman for the prince declined to comment, while the actress's publicist said they did not discuss her private life. In a recent interview, Harry said he was content being single, adding: 'I'm very happy not having a girlfriend. It's not a case of anything. I'm not, sort of, looking. It's cool.'
The prince - who is shortly due to leave the Army to focus on charity workwas knighted by the Queen this week for his service to the monarchy.
