Insiders say his top retirement goal is finding a ‘normal’ Aussie girlfriend, inspired that his brother Prince William and fellow royal Prince Frederik of Denmark are happily married to commoner brides.
It's no secret Harry is weighing up his long-term Australian prospects.

'I am considering the options for the future and I am really excited about the possibilities,' he says.
Insiders say he'll be using his free time for reconnaissance, checking out the lifestyle – and the ladies! – to decide whether he will make Australia his home.
'Harry's had a bit of a revelation in recent months. He’s going to be 31 this year and is acutely aware that his mother, Diana, died when she was only 36,' an insider tells New Idea.

'He's got this nagging feeling that life's too short to do what is expected of him and has drawn up a bucket list of things he wants to do before he dies. He knows that Diana longed to spend more time in Australia, so he’s going to do exactly that.'
