'I let myself down, I let my family down', Prince Harry admits

"I probably let myself down, I let my family down, I let other people down", Prince Harry has said of an incident when he was pictured naked in a Las Vegas hotel room last year.

But he said his treatment by the press over the photographs was not "acceptable", as he was at a party where he had expected privacy.

"I don't believe there is such a thing as a private life anymore", he said, adding "I'm not going to sit here and whinge."

He was speaking just before he completed a five-month deployment to Afghanistan flying Apache helicopters.
