The 32-year-old royal - who is dating 35-year-old actress Meghan Markle - has revealed his outlook on life is "it's great to be good", after previously being involved in some controversial incidents.

Former royal reporter Tom Bradby said: "There is, he says, too much focus on the bad news in life. It's great to be good, he tells us, and boring to be bad."

Harry's comments will be shown on a forthcoming ITV documentary which will air later this month and in which he will speak to Tom about his charity work as well as his past, present and future.

Tom added to the Radio Times magazine: "The film is also rather revealing about who he is and where he is in life.

"He talks candidly about the past, the present and his own future. But mostly he talks about how fired up he is about his position and what he can do with it."

Harry has had several controversial moments, including being snapped wearing a bra and a wig while holding a beer during a night out, and in 2002 when he was 17 the flame-haired royal admitted he had been drinking underage and smoking cannabis.

What's more, he was pictured wearing a Nazi uniform to a fancy dress party in 2005, and in 2012, naked photos of him playing strip billiards in Las Vegas leaked online.
