The holiday prince, just another BA passenger...

- By Rebecca English Royal Correspond­ent

THEY have spent the last fortnight soaking up the sun on the exclusive beaches of Mustique.

But it was back to reality for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge as they returned to Britain with fellow holiday makers.

The royal couple were snapped changing planes in St Lucia, boarding a scheduled British Airways flight after being transporte­d off their island on a private plane.

Her naturally curly hair tied back in a ponytail, pregnant Kate carried Prince George, in her arms. George, 18 months old, dressed in a sweet striped top, appears to have grown a beautiful mop of blond hair which had been combed in a side parting.

William, dressed in chinos and a blue shirt, took the lead – and appeared perfectly comfortabl­e with the decidedly feminine holdall slung over his shoulder.

The royal couple have been holidaying with Kate’s family at a £14,000-a-week villa with a pool, gym and private beach. The holiday also saw a lively celebratio­n to mark the 60th birthday of Kate’s mother, Carole Middleton.

Also among the party were Kate’s siblings, James and Pippa. William must now get back to studying for a commercial pilot’s licence that will see him qualify as an East Anglia Air Ambulance Service pilot later this year.

Kate will continue preparing for the birth of their second child at the end of April.
