Prince Harry plans to leave the armed forces after 10 years of service in order to focus on his charity work. 

The London Evening Standard reported on Friday that Harry wants to spend "a significant period abroad" to work on field projects in Africa. He is also interested in "conservation and wildlife" and helping injured servicemen and women find new jobs.

The 30-year-old is known as Capt. Harry Wales and has served two tours in Afghanistan. He joined the army in 2005 after graduating from the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst and has served in combat and as an Apache helicopter pilot.

Before his active military duties end later this year, he reportedly plans to visit Australia for "several weeks" in order to work with the units available there. Harry will also visit New Zealand on non-military business.

"Harry just felt it was time for a new chapter in his life," a source told the newspaper. "One of his plans is to spend a significant period in Africa working on areas to do with conservation and wildlife. He will also focus on his charities and maintain his interests in highlighting the plight of injured service staff." 

A spokesman for Kensington Palace would neither confirm nor deny the rumors, saying, "Prince Harry is currently focused on his work supporting the MoD's [Ministry of Defense] recovery capability programmed to ensure those who are wounded injured or sick have appropriate recovery plans and the necessary support thy require."

"It's a natural progression from the work he did organizing the Invictus Games. This involves working alongside case officers in London District's Personal Recovery Unit and visiting various recovery centers and partner agencies (like Forces charities and the [public] health service) around the country."
