Yes, and as I pointed out, the only photographic evidence of Harry (and his brother) being seen anywhere near P Diddy was in 2007. There was no need for the plaintiff to mention Prince Harry at all, or people like Mariah Carey, whom Combs was photographed with at a function years ago. She also appears in these documents.

Queen Charlotte had a zebra that grazed outside of Buckingham Palace.
  She had an elephant which resided with the horses in the stables.

I find the elephant story very hard to believe, actually, especially as many horses are easily spooked. Admittedly there were several private zoos and exotic animals held on the estates of noble families in Britain and Europe before the mid 19th century when municipal zoos started to become popular. I believe the Duchess of York, the estranged wife of George and Charlotte's second son, had quite a menagerie at her estate, Bushey Park, but the Duke couldn't stand the mess and noise, one of the reasons he moved out.  The Tower of London had a menagerie for centuries until the idea of animals being kept in unsuitable conditions became of concern.

"Prince Harry's failed legal bid to overturn a Home Office decision to deny him the right to automatic police protection cost the taxpayer more than £500,000, the Telegraph can reveal.

The cost to the public purse will likely raise questions about the merits of a member of the Royal family taking legal action against the Government.

Figures released via a freedom of information request reveal that the total cost of fighting two separate judicial review claims lodged by the Duke of Sussex over his security reached £514,128.

That included more than £180,000 for counsel, £320,000 for the Government Legal Department, £2,300 in court fees and almost £10,000 in e-disclosure.

Mr Justice Lane dismissed the Duke's case in a scathing 52-page ruling handed down in February after two-and-a-half years of legal wrangling.

He ruled that the decision made by the Royal and VIP Executive Committee (Ravec) to withdraw state-funded security for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex when they stepped back as working royals and instead review it on a case by case basis whenever they return to the UK had not been irrational or procedurally unfair.

He also rejected the Duke's "inappropriate, formalist interpretation" of the process and said that taxpayer-funded security should not be used to protect the Duke and Duchess from paparazzi.

The ruling left the Duke facing an estimated legal bill of more than £1 million."

White Wells, Ilkley: The historic Yorkshire spa building paid for by Kate, Princess of Wales's ancestor.

Long an enduring, almost mandatory feature of Yorkshire calendars, White Wells is a spa bath said to date from around 1700 when a pool was constructed to gather water from a natural spring in order to provide a health remedy known as the "cold water cure" to stimulate circulation.
Unlike other spas, the water has been found to have no medicinal properties.

The work was paid for by local landowner Peter Middleton, an ancestor of the Princess of Wales, formerly Kate Middleton:
