According to British media reports, Britain's Prince William, 24, and his girlfriend Kate Middleton, 25, wil spend a week on the exclusive small-island of Ile Desroches in Seychelles, one of the most luxurious, yet reserved, resorts in the region.

William and Kate met as students at St Andrew's University in Scotland in 2002. They were together for four years before their April split. Their relationship allegedly ended when Kate asked the prince for a commitment.

But in July British newspaper The Sun reported that the two young ones were “closer than ever”.  

William and Kate were seen together at the memorial concert organized by royal brothers Prince William and Harry on July 1 for their mom, the late Princess Diana.

The Sun claimed that William had rented out the whole Desroches Island Resort, the only hotel on the island, and its 20 apartments for a week.

"William was desperate to spend some quality time alone with Kate. The island is perfect as it is so private," the newspaper quoted a friend as saying.

Earlier this month, Kate Middleton pulled out of the cross-Channel rowing team after she was told by the Queen as well as Prince William that the fuss surrounding her early morning training sessions on the river Thames was getting out of hand.

There have been rumors that William is preparing to get engaged with Kate once he has finishes his training with the Royal Air Force and Royal Navy next year.
