And it looks like they have found a place in the sun just in time to avoid a spell of dreary weather that forecasters say is about to shroud their island home on Anglesey off the northwest coast of Wales. Instead of dodging the raindrops, they will be able to relax and soak up the rays beneath the palm trees on beautiful sandy beaches.

William (28) and Kate (29) will have a little bit of paradise all to themselves. They are believed to have chosen one of the islands that are up for private hire. It means they'' ll have the exclusive services of a top chef and be pampered by staff looking after their every whim. And if they fancy some adventure, they'll have their pick of activities including scuba diving, sailing and fishing.

A spokesman for St James's Palace said he would not confirm their honeymoon destination, although according to reports, the couple may have headed for the Seychelles. "We are not confirming and we are not commenting on speculation on where they may be going on their private honeymoon, we are just confirming that they have gone," he said, adding, "The couple have asked that their privacy be respected during their honeymoon."u00a0
