After numerous failed romances with some of the U.K.'s most popular socialites, it seems that Prince Harry has decided to start looking elsewhere for his next big love and a familiar name has really caught his eye. Several outlets are saying that the royal has been on several dates with Emma Watson. Finally, it looks like Harry is looking for a woman with both a career and a solid education to keep him on his toes.

According to a report by Woman's Day, "He sent Emma a short email saying that he would 'like to get to know her' and invited her out. Although 12 other friends went along too to make Emma feel a little more comfortable, the pair hit it off! 'Harry didn't want her to feel like she was put on the spot,' explains one insider. A party also shows he's fun and not stuffy. He's smitten — and it's more than Emma's looks." says the source.

A big question that comes to mind is whether or not the royal family would appreciate Harry's latest lady but we do know that Watson has met both Prince Charles and Prince William at charity events in the past. After marrying Camilla Parker Bowles, Charles isn't exactly in a position to give his son any grief over who he dates, but Queen Elizabeth is a different story. Even though she has taken steps to modernize the monarchy, those marrying into the family have to live up to her extremely high standards.
