The star is the queen of swimwear

The Royals star will no doubt make the most of the winter sun on the tropical island, which can reach highs of 30 C (86 F) in November and December. She often leaves her fans gobsmacked with her impressive swimsuit shots and recently opened up about how she manages to look so good. 

Speaking to The Sunday Times Style, she confessed that she watches what she eats and has made small adjustments throughout the years.

"I haven't eaten processed food for 100 years. I don't eat sweets, I drink little alcohol, I don't smoke but I deeply regret that I once did. I have learnt to eat lighter and not so late," she said, adding: "I think one of the most transformative things that I've done is making 50 per cent of what I eat vegetable matter. If you have a slice of toast for breakfast, have an apple too. Counteract everything with vegetables."

However, there is one sweet treat that the mother-of-one can't resist - peanut butter. "I have one spoon, then another, and I've emptied the jar before you know it," she told the publication.
