Prince William and Kate Middleton Skip 2025 BAFTAs for Family Vacation in Caribbean

The royal couple chose to prioritize family time during their children's school break, marking their absence from the prestigious film awards.

Prince William and Kate Middleton are on vacation with their three children on the private island of Mustique in the Caribbean, skipping the 2025 BAFTA Awards.
This decision aligns with their tradition of spending time with family during school holidays; their children's half-term break began on February 14.
The royal couple reportedly flew together with their children on a British Airways flight to Saint Lucia before heading to Mustique, accompanied by Kate's mother, Carole Middleton.
Prince William, as President of BAFTA since 2010, appeared in a pre-recorded video during the awards ceremony to celebrate British filmmakers.
This is not the first time the couple has missed the BAFTAs; previous absences were due to personal and scheduling reasons, including Kate's recovery from abdominal surgery in 2024.
