Prince Harry wanted to talk about Kate Middleton's 'killer legs' in his best man's speech but Chelsy Davy told him not to, royal biographer claims

Prince Harry's ex-girlfriend Chelsy Davy stopped him from creating an embarrassing moment for his sister-in-law when she asked him to rethink his reference to Kate's 'killer legs'

Prince Harry definitely warmed hearts with his Best Man's speech at brother William's wedding in 2011, but it turns out that the speech could have been much cheekier in nature if Harry's then-girlfriend, Chelsy Davy, had not decided to intervene at the right moment.

According to royal biographer Katie Nicholl, Prince Harry wanted to compliment his new sister-in-law's "killer legs" in his speech but Davy advised against the whole thing, preventing the royal from embarrassing not only himself but also the newlywed bride, according to the Express.

Nicholl's royal biography, titled 'Harry: Life, Loss, and Love', claims that Davy allegedly helped make changes to the young Prince's sassy best man speech. She wrote, "Chelsy had helped Harry edit the best man’s speech, sensitively advising him to take out a line about Kate’s 'killer legs' that might have embarrassed the bride."
