So waiting for a royal honeymoon was not long after all.Prince William and his wife, the former Catherine Middleton, has left for a honeymoon at a secret location, palace officials said yesterday declined to elaborate on where or how long. They have also requested that the young couple's privacy be respected at this time.
British media coverage had been sprayed in the Seychelles, an archipelago in the Indian Ocean. William has two weeks leave from his job as a search-and-rescue helicopter pilot, but palace officials would not say whether the couple will be gone the whole two weeks.
After the media blitz surrounding their April 29 wedding at Westminster Abbey, the couple made it clear that they want to be left alone by photographers. Still, their decision to delay a honeymoon surprise many. While William went back to work, Middleton - now the Duchess of Cambridge - was broken by photographers shopping close to home of the couple at the remote Welsh island of Anglesey.
The idea of a getaway Seychelles gained traction when the Hamburg, Germany-based real estate mogul Farhad Vladi told the daily Hamburger Abendblatt he had rented the North Island in the Seychelles chain to the Windsors.
"Yes, we rent the island to the British royal family,''Vladimir told the newspaper." Prince William and Kate spent their honeymoon there. But you will understand that we have nothing further to say.''
The Seychelles consist of 115 islands about 1,000 miles east of the Kenyan coast. A popular luxury destination, the island nation lies outside the cyclone belt, so severe storms are rare.
