Prince Harry has a "naughty streak".

The 32-year-old royal has confessed he has a bit of a naughty side to him but thinks that helps him relate to people he meets who have got themselves in trouble.

He said: "My search began when I was in my mid-20s. I needed to fix the mistakes I was making ... My mother died when I was very young. I didn't want to be in the position I was in, but I eventually pulled my head out of the sand, started listening to people and decided to use my role for good.

"I am now fired up and energised and love charity stuff, meeting people and making them laugh. I sometimes still feel I am living in a goldfish bowl, but I now manage it better. I still have a naughty streak too, which I enjoy and is how I relate to those individuals who have got themselves into trouble."

And whilst he is prominent member of the royal family and is known all over the world, the flame-haired royal wants to live as normal a life as possible.

He told Newsweek: "My mother took a huge part in showing me an ordinary life, including taking me and my brother to see homeless people. Thank goodness I'm not completely cut off from reality. People would be amazed by the ordinary life William and I live.

"I do my own shopping. Sometimes, when I come away from the meat counter in my local supermarket, I worry someone will snap me with their phone. But I am determined to have a relatively normal life, and if I am lucky enough to have children, they can have one too. Even if I was king, I would do my own shopping."
