Prince Harry declares he is 'anti-selfie' as he refuses picture with young woman
The Prince's stance puts him at odds with other senior royal family members who are more receptive to the craze
Prince Harry has put himself at odds with other senior royal family members by declaring that he is “anti-selfie” as he refused to be photographed with a young woman in South Africa.
Responding to a request from a member of Desmond Tutu’s entourage for a photograph, he said: "I'm afraid I'm anti-selfie."
The Prince made the comments in the Desmond and Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation on the Cape waterfront, after presenting presented the retired Archbishop with the Order of the Companion of Honour.
This is not the first time the fifth in line to the throne has taken a hard line against the practise.
"No, I hate selfies," the Prince told her. "Seriously, you need to get out of it. I know you're young, but selfies are bad."
He added: "Just take a normal photograph."
However, the Prince has on occasion relaxed his no-selfie rule.
During his first visit to Estonia last year, to lay a wreath to the country’s war dead in Freedom Square in Tallinn, he posed with an attractive blonde woman while she took a picture on her phone.
Meanwhile, other royal family members are more receptive towards selfies.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge appeared in a whole clutch of photographs taken by people in the crowd in Sydney, some of which they agreed to pose for, while others were cheekily snapped as they passed by.
Nina Kiwarkis, 52, from Sydney, managed to get separate pictures of herself with first the Duke and then the Duchess outside Sydney Opera House after she was chosen to be introduced to them because she is waiting for a heart and lung transplant.
Her friend Marian Khamis also managed to get a selfie with the Duchess before she moved on further down the crowd and was photographed by Chloe Skafte, a 19-year-old student who gave the Duchess a bunch of flowers.
Andrew took the photo at the final of his Pitch @ Palace competition at St James’s Palace, and posted the image to Twitter.
However, he later bemoaned the royal selfie craze as he admitted he finds it "disconcerting" when he is faced with banks of iPads rather than faces when he is attending public engagements.
According to Matthew Barzun, the American ambassador to the UK, the Queen told him she found it "strange" to look out on a sea of mobile phones in a crowd. "She was essentially saying, 'I miss eye contact'," he said.
In Johannesburg he will meet Mr Mandela's widow Graca Machel and visit a centre dedicated to the former world leader.
A Kensington Palace spokeswoman said: "Prince Harry was keen to focus on a number of key themes where he has been actively working for some time, and where he feels he can make a difference.
"First of all, he was keen to understand some of the issues facing the hardest to reach young people in South Africa today and the positive ways they are being supported to overcome this.
"He also wanted to support his brother's work in drawing attention to the ongoing critical conservation crisis, and the efforts being made on the ground by the highly skilled rangers.
"In addition he asked to highlight the recent history of South Africa. His visit will come shortly before the second anniversary of President Mandela's passing on 5th December 2013, and provides an opportunity once again to reflect on the legacy of this great man and how it is inspiring South Africa's younger generations to take the country forward."
The Prince met visited Tutu at his foundation's offices in Cape Town and learned about the Nobel Peace Prize winner's work in promoting human rights and helping young people get jobs.
Tutu thanked the Prince for his work in Lesotho, saying he was "touched" by the prince's commitment to the country, where Tutu once served as bishop.
