Cape Town - Prince Harry's girlfriend Chelsy Davy has been discharged from a Cape Town hospital after being admitted with severe abdominal pains.
Her mother reportedly struggled to reach Prince Harry in England, where he's busy with army manoeuvres.
Michelle Morris, spokesperson for the Christiaan Barnard Memorial Hospital, confirmed to Rapport that Chelsy, 21, had been admitted as a patient.
She had arrived at the hospital shortly after breakfast last Thursday. Apparently she had an operation later that day to remove her appendix.
Harry was reportedly beside himself with worry when Chelsy's mom finally tracked him down and told him the news.
Morris did not want to confirm the procedure or comment on Chelsy's state of health: "We must treat every patient's information as confidential."
The Daily Mail in Britain said on Friday that doctors would be monitoring her health very closely over the next few days.
But according to Morris, Chelsy was discharged on Friday.
And one of her friends told Rapport that Chelsy could have contracted a stomach virus while on holiday in Botswana with Harry.
Another friend said that after selling her house in Newlands earlier this year, Chelsy had bought a place near the Cape Town city bowl.
