The
Duke and Duchess of
Cambridge looked very much like ordinary parents as they strode
through St. Lucia's tiny airport.They spent the last two weeks in a
£14,000 Caribbean villa but, the absence of servants or security
protocols are clear as they were papped boarding a British Airways
plane. The Duke was laden
with bags While the Duchess was seen carrying their young son.
The family was seen boarding as they prepared to travel back to London, following their annual holiday on the island of Mustique. Kate, who is almost seven months pregnant, and William were on the island to celebrate Carole Middleton's 60th birthday on the 31st January, as well as for a final family break before they become parents for a second time in April.
Ask any parent and they'll tell you that when travelling on a long haul flight with a one-year-old, only a bag of Mary Poppins proportions will do. And who better to turn to than cult brand Cath Kidston, whose vintage-inspired floral prints have got countless fans, including our favourite little prince?
We spotted Catherine carrying a polka dot print Cath Kidston holdall when en route to Canada, plus of course the guardsman print tank top that gorgeous little George wore in his official Christmas portrait was by the brand.
We love the contrast stripe print strap on this style, as well as the perfectly sized pockets. Unfortunately, it is now all sold out, but click (right) to buy a very similar version in the sale.

They might
have spent the last two weeks in a £14,000 Caribbean villa but, laden
with bags and carrying their young son, the Duke and Duchess of
Cambridge looked very much like any other set of parents as they strode
through St. Lucia's tiny airport.

Kate,
who is almost seven months pregnant, and William were on the island to
celebrate Carole Middleton's 60th birthday on the 31st January, as well
as for a final family break before they become parents for a second time
in April.
William,
meanwhile, got the job of carrying the hand luggage and clutched a
floral-print holdall from Cath Kidston as he made his way into the plane
behind one of the couple's two protection officers.
The
couple have spent the last two weeks at the Villa Rocina on the
secluded island of Mustique, with the Middleton clan, including James,
27, and Pippa, 31.
They
were there for Mrs Middleton's birthday celebrations, which, according
to sources, was fun, informal and noisy and included bespoke cocktails
created especially for the event.
Along
with Pippa and James, rumoured guests included Basil Charles, the owner
of Mustique's much-loved Basil's Bar, and the island's resident doctor
Michael Bunbury and his wife Lotty.
What a gentleman the Duke of Cambridge is. Whilst we can't quite see
what the Duchess is wearing to fly home from their annual holiday on the
island of Mustique, luckily we can get a load of the couples' luggage!
