An aristocrat who is 65th in line to the British throne will be spending Christmas behind bars after he was jailed for over a second racially aggravated crime.
Rowan Nash Lascelles, 42, has been jailed for sixteen weeks after he was found guilty of harrassing Avi Daoudi at Victoria Train Station on April 18.
The distant royal, who is the great-great grandson of George V, has ironically been staying at a homeless hostel named in the late monarch’s honour.
His father, The Hon. James Lascelles, is The Queen’s first cousin, once removed, and his great grandmother was the daughter of George VI, and the Queen’s aunt.

Last Thursday at Westminster Magistrates Court, Lascelles was sentenced to sixteen weeks imprisonment.
He also received one week to run concurrently for jumping bail at Hendon Magistrates Court where in his absence he was convicted for the racially aggravated harassment at Victoria.

He received eight weeks imprisonment and was ordered to pay a £122 victim surcharge.
An additional eight weeks imprisonment was added, to run consecutively, for breaching a community order imposed for a similar offence.
Lascelles, of King George V Hostel, 75 Great Peter Street, Victoria was convicted last July of the racially aggravated assault of a Leicester Square casino doorman and racially abusing his supervisor.
On that occasion he spat blood in a bouncer’s face after fighting outside with some homeless men and called the supervisor a ‘Paki.’
Again Lascelles jumped bailed and did not appear for the trial.
