Prince William and girlfriend Kate Middleton are facing a frustrating separation this summer as he stays on the British island of Anglesey, while Kate will spend the month of August on holiday in the Caribbean with her family.
The 27-year-old prince had been due to spend two weeks of the vacation with Miss Middleton on the island of Mustique, but he is now being transferred to Wales to train with the helicopter search and rescue teams at RAF Valley. William could be rescuing lost hill walkers in the fog, while his beloved lazes on a hot sandy beach.
Mustique, a firm favourite holiday destination of celebrities and royalty, was made famous by Princess Margaret. Prince William and Kate Middleton have spent several idyllic holidays there in the past, enjoying the seven deserted white sandy beaches surrounded by a series of coral reefs. Unlike other Caribbean holiday islands Mustique can be visited all year round.
The month-long course is designed to familiarise trainee RAF helicopter pilots like Prince William with the role of Search and Rescue Force. It is particularly crucial for William who hopes to go on to become a Sea King pilot with the force next spring.
This summer separation seems to rule out an early engagement announcement, so we will probably have to wait until 2010 for any progress in the royal romance
