Many members of the British royal family are currently taking a break from royal duties and enjoying a much-needed summer holiday.

Whilst their destinations normally remain a secret, a new photo posted on Instagram has revealed that King Charles' cousin, Prince Michael of Kent, is enjoying some days in the glamourous setting of St. Tropez.

The 81-year-old featured in Princess Camilla of Bourbon Two Sicilies, Duchess of Castro's Instagram, and seemed to be having a great time as shown in the video below.

In a photo later shared by the Princess, Prince Michael can be seen posing alongside her and three other female guests whilst looking stylish in a yellow shirt and matching trousers which he perfectly accessorised with a light blue jumper over his shoulders.

Prince Michael seems to have attended the party on his own, as his wife, Princess Michael of Kent, or his children, Lady Gabriella Kingston and Lord Frederick Windsor, were nowhere to be seen.

Princess Camilla seems to have a good relationship with the British royal family. In September last year, the 52-year-old paid tribute to the Queen following her death on her Instagram and detailed that they had met several times.

"We have been privileged to meet Her Majesty on a number of occasions and will forever treasure the time that we have spent with her," part of her tribute read.

Sunny St. Tropez might not be Prince Michael's only destination this summer as he could be heading up to Scotland with other members of the royal family.z
