Prince Harry’s shock Glastonbury festival bombshell and 4am party revelation

Prince Harry enjoyed partying at Glastonbury until 4am in the days “before he went to America”, according to the festival’s founder.

Michael Eavis was knighted at Windsor Castle today for services to music and charity. The ceremony was handled by the Princess Royal and afterwards, he shared how both the King and his younger son had previously attended the world-famous festival at Worthy Farm.

Joking how “Harry jumped the fence”, Sir Michael said: “The King came once, Prince Charles. And Harry – I think he jumped the fence I should think.

“I’ve got spies everywhere. No, I’ve got security all over the place actually. He enjoyed it. (The then) Prince Charles enjoyed it as well actually. He (Harry) only came once. That was the old Prince Harry, before he went to America.”

In 2013, Harry was spotted backstage watching when The Rolling Stones headlined the Pyramid Stage and partying until the early hours of the morning with Sir Michael. Speaking at the festival that year, the dairy farmer said: “Prince Harry was great actually.

“I recommended he should go on into the night, because the nightlife is what Glastonbury is all about. At three o’clock in the afternoon, you don’t get it.

“I told him to get his taxi driver to come back at five o’clock in the morning and do you know what? He lasted until four in the morning. His friends were all having a great time. He didn’t want to make a formal thing of being here.”
