Ok, so not that we really needed another reason to gawk at Prince Harry’s status as a total package/dreamboat, but the rebellious royal has been seen working hard for a charity he started called Sentebale which aims to help children in the African nation of Lesotho.  

I’m going to go against the grain here, and say that Harry was seen (and photographed) dancing and connecting with the charity he started, because he is a good guy and not because he is in some serious need of a little positive “PR” after the recent stories in the news of him running around with random women and partying way too hard.  I’m referencing an incident that took place last August in which the prince made friends with a group of women in a Las Vegas bar and invited them to the VIP suite he was sharing with his friends. 

A few embarrassing (read: naked) pictures later, and a book deal given to the 40 year old Las Vegas beautician he was drunk enough to invite up to his room, had Harry issuing a public apology for his actions. He blamed the fact that he had been serving in the British Army in Afghanistan as one of the reasons he acted so brash while partying.

Whether for good or bad reasons, Harry has been really focused on his charity work now that his stint in Afghanistan is through. He was photographed dancing with some of the children his charity is helping and (according to People) even tried to speak a few words in the kid’s native language.

Harry founded Sentebale with the prince of Lesotho in order to help HIV positive children in the small Southern African country get support and education, in hopes of giving them the skills they will need to meet the challenges life will throw at them in the future. 

Harry has gone on record saying that he feels that charities like Sentebale continue the work his mother, Princess Diana, started in the 90’s. I for one think that the late Princess of Wales would be incredible proud of her son’s work (naked photos or not). 

After waking up in Vegas, Prince Harry is back in London under the watchful eye of the royals. The issue with the nude photo leak of the cheeky royal, who turns 28 next month, has been the Prince's security. Many today are questioning why they didn't prevent the naked photos from being taken atall!

Former royal bodyguard says: "It's not up to the bodyguard to worry or be concerned about the private antics of their charge, but you are responsible for the security."

"In this case, nothing happened to him, he survived."

The British Press Association reported that Harry, an Olympic ambassador much on display at the recent London Olympics, will watch the Paralympic swimming competition at the aquatic center on Monday and later will meet British athletes at the ParalympicsGB House.

Now, in his first public appearances since the scandal blew up last week, he's hoping to move past the recriminations and reprimands from his family and army superiors and return to the charity work he's actually pretty good at.

Prince Harry is coming back to the USA, this time to accept a major humanitarian award for himself and his big brother. Prince Harry is returning to the USA to receive an award honoring him and his big brother, Prince William, for their charitable work on behalf of members of the military.

"Prince Harry will use the award to pay tribute to British and American veterans' charities for their achievements in helping to rehabilitate wounded servicemen and women, and to reintegrate those who have served in the armed forces into civilian life," said St. James' Palace in an official royal statement.

JUST a week after representing the Queen at the Olympic Games closing ceremony, Prince Harry is back to his party- loving ways.

Blending into the crowd at MGM Grand's Wet Republic, the shirtless British royal went largely unnoticed in his VIP bungalow Saturday, dressed in a red floral swim suit, sunglasses and a brimmed hat. Most of the crowd's attention centered a few cabanas down as Jennifer Lopez hosted the party.

Much like his previous Vegas visit, Harry appeared chipper as he stayed in his private area, chatting with his friends and several girls.

"A few groups of women approached him throughout the day and he talked to them briefly, but he didn't really center his attention on anyone," an onlooker tells PEOPLE. "He definitely loved the attention, but he looked to be a gentleman with all the women."
