Pippa Middleton was a true beach goddess during her February break with her husband to the Caribbean island of Saint Barthélemy. Kate's sister was snapped soaking up the sun and donning a red bikini as she ran through the sand.

Mike Tindall

Stripping down is just part of the I'm a Celebrity experience with many iconic moments coming from the show's shower scenes and Mike Tindall was no exception when he hit the baths and surprised viewers by revealing a pair of budgie smugglers.

Fans loved the moment as one said: "NOT THE BUDGIE SMUGGLERS MIKE," and another commented: "It's not every day you see ex-England rugby [player] and Princess Anne's son-in-law, Mike Tindall in his speedos on national television, but first time for everything."

Princess Diana

Princess Diana had plenty of fashion moments, including this one from 1993 when she holidayed in the Caribbean. The royal was seen in a bright-orange bikini as she enjoyed the waves and even took part in a bit of bodyboarding.

Princess of Wales

Although she wasn't in the water for this moment, Kate rocked a stunning two-piece underneath a sheer dress when she was a fashion model during her time at university. Her future husband is believed to have first laid eyes on her while she was walking a catwalk.

Prince William

During his university days, Prince William was a keen water polo player, and was often seen in a pair of black speedos as he cheered on teammates before getting into the pool himself.

The Queen

The late Queen, then known as Princess Elizabeth, took part in a Children's Challenge Shield Competition that was held in 1939. Her Majesty, who wore a black one-piece and white swim-cap, even walked away from the event with an award in life-saving.

King Charles

The then-Prince Charles enjoyed a trip to Bondi Beach during a tour of Australia. Accompanied by his bodyguard, the future King had a pair of blue trunks and a huge smile on his face as he enjoyed the warm waters.

Princess Margaret

The late Princess Margaret looked amazing in this brightly-coloured one-piece as she enjoyed a holiday in Mustique back in 1976.
