Prince Harry's ex-girlfriend Florence St. George, also known as Florence Brudenell-Bruce, disclosed a few details about her short-lived relationship with the Duke of Sussex. The model and actress, who is now a mom and wife to multi-millionaire Henry St. George, dated the royal in 2011 for two months.
St. George said in an interview with The Times that her relationship with Prince Harry was always in the foreground of the media. She admitted at being terrified of the life in the royal spotlight that she developed a total fear for the press camera.
Prince Harry's ex said, however, that she has utmost respect for people who are in that kind of a spotlight. However, she quickly decided that this royal life was not the right one for her so their relationship ended.
The Duke of Sussex and St. George dated after his split from Chelsy Davy. A friend recalled in an interview with Hello that while St. George liked Prince Harry, she was always embarrassed about being in the papers.
St. George never mentioned Prince Harry by name in the interview but she had two high profile relationships before meeting her husband. She also dated Formula One driver Jenson Button for two years and also got some press for it.
She comes from a well-educated large family with Old Etonian roots. St. George modeled for Topshop when she was 15 and ventured to America to work with Adidas and John Lewis.
After dating Prince Harry, St. George got back together with her future husband. They had been dating since 2008 but split up just right before her summer romance with the royal. Incidentally, the St. George's family is close friends with Queen Elizabeth. Henry's father is a racehorse magnate.
Prince Harry's former flame currently divides her time between the Grand Bahama island and the U.K. Her husband has a cushy job as the vice-president of the Port Authority in the island.
St. George is currently isolating with her family in the Grand Bahama because of the pandemic. Her son, Jimmy, 3, suffered a pulmonary condition as an infant and the mom worries that he may be at risk for developing COVID-19 pneumonia.
The former model now spends her time doing pottery, which she said is the ultimate stress relief. St. George suffered from post-natal depression after her last pregnancy and learned to cope with pottery. She said it makes her disconnect from the digital world.
