The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are making the most of their last baby-free months, jetting off to the Caribbean for a lavish holiday.
William and Kate flew out of freezing London yesterday, bound for the private island paradise of Mustique.

The royal couple have rented at luxury five-bedroom $30,000-a-week mansion, one of the most opulent houses on the island.
“Their villa is the height of luxury and the perfect place to relax before the endless round of feeds and nappies begins,” a source told the UK’s Daily Mail.
Michael and Carole Middleton are also on holiday on the island, but have rented a different house to give the parents-to-be some privacy.
Those hoping to catch another glimpse of Kate’s chest will be disappointed — Mustique is privately-owned and incredibly exclusive.
It has been a secluded safe haven for the rich and famous for decades, with Princess Diana, Princess Margaret and Mick Jagger all enjoying regular holidays there away from the paparazzi’s prying eyes.
William and Kate are frequent visitors too, having holidayed in Mustique six times previously.

It is not known how long the couple will stay in the Caribbean this time, but they will be back in London by February 19, when Kate is due to carry out her first official engagement for 2012, a visit to an addiction treatment centre in south-west London.
The royal couple are expecting their first baby in July.
