Chelsy Davy is completing work experience at Britain's Queen Elizabeth's solicitors. The Zimbabwean-born girlfriend of Prince Harry - the queen's grandson - had her first day at Farrer and Co. Monday and sources believe the Leeds university student's royal connections helped her land the prestigious placement.
A source told Britain's The Daily Mail newspaper: "These London City law firms only ever interview Oxbridge graduates and, normally speaking, someone at Leeds would not get a look in."
"This isn't because the firms look down on other universities - it is simply that they consider that Oxbridge fulfills all their needs, so why bother to broaden the net?"
Farrer receives hundreds of applications for placements, but select just one or two for Christmas posts, for which they pay $370 a week.
The law firm receive 700 applications a year for their two-year training program but select just 10 candidates.
Chelsy, 23, has been dating Harry, 24, for four years. She is in the second year of her law degree.
