In one of his most candid interviews during his trip to New Zealand, Prince Harry has revealed he would "love" to have kids right now, and that it would be great to have "someone to share the pressure with".

Speaking to Sky News from Stewart Island, the fifth in line for the British throne said there came a time when people in his position thought about settling down and raising a family.

"But I don't think you can force these things. It will happen when it's going to happen.

"Of course, I would love to have kids right now, but there's a process that one has to go through and... tours like this are great fun.

He said he was currently doing "all right" by himself, but left the door open for romance.

"It would be great to have someone else next to me to share the pressure."
