Everyone's been talking about it, but there was no proof - until now.
It seems Chelsy Davy's boozy antics at the Durban July recently earned her a long talking-to by Prince William's girlfriend, the prim and proper Kate Middleton.
The Zimbabwean-born student has been dating the third in line to the throne, Prince Harry for more than three years.
She is on holiday in South Africa after finishing her first year of a postgraduate law degree in Leeds.
While Harry was building a school in Lesotho, Davy was being kissed by best friend Kirsten Rogers, carried on the shoulders of a male friend and even climbed up a tree.

Durban July organisers were not even aware the Prince's girlfriend had attended the event, but pictures don't lie - she clearly had.
Earlier in the day, according to British tabloids, as Davy watched the 13th race at South Africa's premier racing meet, she couldn't help but giggle. "Then again, it wasn't the sort of event that lent itself to a straight face," the newspaper wrote.
"According to tradition, after the last race of the day at Durban July, the course is opened up to those on Shanks's pony."
Up to 100 men stripped and set off under starter's orders, egged on by the crowd. Davy (22), who was with her brother Shaun, was clearly amused by the display.
An onlooker, quoted by the Daily Mail said: "Chelsy was soaking up the sun in a VIP lounge for most of the day with her friend and clearly found the whole thing a hoot."
And just because Prince Harry could be seen flexing his muscles building a school for disabled children in Lesotho this week, it doesn't mean that's all he got up to. There have been several stories of boozy exploits by the Prince and members of his regiment, the Household Cavalry. A source close to the prince said: "Yes, it's a great experience and Harry and his men are enjoying themselves - but there is a serious aspect to the trip and it is considered an important part of their army adventure training."
Royal sources say Harry and Davy plan to go on safari once his work is over.
