Interesting how the article calls it an "exotic honeymoon" and then says that they are going to Balmoral! :laugh:

Is this possibly true? Do the taxpayers have to pay for the honeymoon as well.......?????????  :censored2:

No....the taxpayers do not pay for the honeymoon, not since the Royal Yacht Britannia was decommissioned, and that used to come out of the Defence budget.  That was one Royal luxury which I felt was right to be done away with.  The reason it came out of the defence budget was that in the event of any war then the Britannia could be requisitioned and turned into a hospital ship, but the Falklands came and went and the Britannia was left as it was.

I was under the impression that when royals went abroad they had to seek permission to do so from the Foreign Office and that they then liaise with the Embassy or Consulate in the country they are planning to visit.

I don't think the cost is related to the actual honeymoon, but rather the security.

A sunny honeymoon?
Quote
Prince William had planned to greet his grandparents on the airfield apron and show them around the Sea King helicopter he flies on rescue missions. But their rendezvous had to be moved into a hangar to avoid everyone getting hypothermia.

The ten minute rendezvous finally took place as planned, but as I left the strong wind blew my notebook out of my hand and I was in despair until a kind policeman chased after it and returned it to me.

Most of us reporters and photographers had arrived the previous evening after a five hour journey from London. When we all gathered in a hotel nearby for dinner there was just one topic of conversation - the royal honeymoon.

We are not planning to invade it, of course, but we were playing guessing games as to where it will be.

The snappers thought it would probably be somewhere like cold, rainy Balmoral. They reckon that during the recession any honeymoon in a sun-soaked luxury resort would make Kate and Will look extravagant and heedless of ordinary people's troubles.

The Queen's highland home, they argued, would also guarantee the couple complete privacy as well as a low cost break.

I disagreed strongly. This is hopefully the only honeymoon Kate and William will ever have as this royal marriage has got to be one that lasts.

So, why should they be deprived of a fantastic, once in a lifetime holiday in a sunny place?

Yes, I know they have fantastic holidays in places like Mustique, Ibiza and Kenya every year, but they aren't like us ordinary folk who can grab a package deal and hop on a plane to Spain.

They can only truly relax in a secure place where the paparazzi can't find them. Will (as friends and family call him) has an extremely stressful job and deserves a complete rest.

For me, Mustique would be a perfect haven. Kate's parents were there in January which makes me think they could have been checking out villas for their daughter and future son-in-law.

I think that they have been to Mustique so many times, they may wish to try something new.

“Prince William and Kate have hired a private villa in Corfu with a secluded, private beach. Their plan is to be as unnoticed as possible.

“William has requested a local boatsman be on standby during their break so they can sail around the island on a fishing tour.

“The newlyweds also plan to go swimming and snorkelling to check out local marine life of the Ionian Sea and visit the Old Town.”

Local villagers have been briefed about the arrival of the couple and a security team are being lined up in the run-up to the April 29 wedding ceremony.

The source added: “William and Kate are heading out to Greece straight after the wedding reception.

“They have chosen a secluded spot which can only be reached by boat or helicopter.”

The couple chose Corfu as the Royal Family have strong connections to the island.
