Chelsy Davy

We were just as surprised as anyone when we noticed not one but two of Prince Harry's ex-girlfriends turning up to his wedding at the weekend, but it seems one of them nearly didn't come along at all.

They have been together for several years although did have a brief split and got back together last May."

A statement from the Percy family said yesterday: "The Duke and Duchess of Northumberland are delighted to announce the engagement of their younger daughter Melissa Percy to Mr Thomas van Straubenzee.
