PICTURES of a naked Prince Harry larking about with women at a Las Vegas hotel have been published online – are you bothered by the royal’s latest antics?

The pictures, which St James's Palace has confirmed are of Harry, show the prince and a young woman naked in a hotel room.

In one photo, Harry is shown wearing just a necklace and a wristband, using his hands to protect his modesty as a seemingly topless woman stands behind him.

Another picture shows Harry shielding himself behind an unknown woman who is also naked.

The third in line to the throne was enjoying a private break over the weekend.

The images were published by celebrity gossip website TMZ, which said they were taken last Friday.

Do you think the pictures are embarrassing to the Royal family or the country? Should Harry be criticised for his behaviour? It is reported newspapers have been asked not to reprint the pictures and also have so far complied – do you agree with this, and should other public figures expect the same level of respect?
