Prince Harry has joked that the “pressure’s off” now that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have made the Prince of Wales a proud grandfather.

With Harry apparently some years off from settling down, the birth last week of William and Kate’s baby, Prince George, means the 28-year-old can remain single - for the time being.

Harry joked about his family life as he opened a new £30 million Royal Navy centre which will boost Britain’s amphibious fighting capabilities.

Prince Harry meets servicemen during a visit to the new Royal Marines Tamar centre at the HM Naval Base in Plymouth.  In the shadow of the amphibious landing vessel HMS Bulwark, the servicemen saluted the prince before he walked onto the parade ground to inspect the troops

He travelled to the Devonport naval base in Plymouth to launch Royal Marines Tamar, where servicemen are taught a range of skills from handling hovercraft to staging beach landings.

The new base is home to 1 Assault Group Royal Marines, which oversees amphibious warfare and Royal Navy board search and training. Colonel Garth Manger, the military unit's commanding officer, said bringing facilities and personnel together at Tamar would help deliver amphibious capabilities.  Col Manger said: 'It’s the Royal Navy’s amphibious centre of excellence which means a great deal to the navy and defence - it means all the Navy’s assets for amphibious warfare will all be located in one place. 'I will be able to deliver that capability to the frontline in a far better and streamlined manner than I’ve been able to do so far.' He added: 'With Prince Harry as a professional soldier himself he will see this capability and understand exactly what it means.'
