The Cambridge family is on vacation in Mustique—and it seems like Prince William and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge may have even squeezed in a date night. According to Hello!, the parents of three headed to Basil’s Bar, a famous island hotspot, for a themed “A Splash of Gold” summer party. Mick Jagger was also said to be in attendance. But if you are hoping for some stories of wild royal revelry, you’re out of luck: “They… kept it rather classy,” sources said.
The owner of Basil’s Bar, Basil Charles, is a good friend of William and Middleton’s. He even attended their 2011 wedding at Westminster Abbey and hosted a celebratory pop-up bar at the Goring Hotel, where Middleton stayed in London the night before the nuptials. Before William and Middleton, Charles was close with Princess Margaret. Margaret famously had a villa, Les Jolies Eaux, on the island, which she considered a haven from paparazzi and prying eyes. “We were friends, and I made her laugh,” Charles said of their friendship.
William and Middleton are said to be vacationing with other members of the Middleton family, including Kate’s parents Carole and Michael. They were also there for Prince George’s fifth birthday. As the island is a no-fly zone, it seems there’s no better way to get away from it all.
