Kate – who is the prince’s long term girlfriend – and William have been enjoying a romantic break on the island of Mustique, following the end of the prince’s five-week secondment with HMS Iron Duke.

The couple’s choice of holiday venue has fuelled rumours they are set to marry, with some suggesting a proposal could take place in the near future.

A source is quoted on the MailOnline website as saying: “Everyone expects that when William finally proposes to Kate it will be on Mustique, because this is their favourite getaway place in the world.”

Kate, 26, has been seen wakeboarding and waterskiing with the prince near
the UKP5 million villa they are staying in.

During their holiday, the couple joined celebrities and businessmen at a 40th anniversary dinner-dance celebrating the Mustique Company, who manage the affairs of the island’s home-owners.

A guest at the party said: “William has been a real breath of fresh air on the island – he likes to mix in with everyone.

“He had a kickaround with some local lads during the week and he and Kate had sunset cocktails at the same hangouts where tourists go.”
