Many people up and down the country are packing up and jetting off on their first foreign holiday since the pandemic.
And it appears that the royals are no different with Prince Edward and Sophie Wessex also reportedly making the most of their summer downtime.
It's been reported that the Queen's youngest son, his wife and their two children Lady Louise Windsor and James, Viscount Severn, enjoyed a sun-soaked two-week break last month on an island very popular with Brits.
And not only is the destination known for its beautiful weather and gorgeous scenery, but it also has a link to the late Prince Philip.
According to the Daily Mail, the Wessexes headed to the Greek island of Corfu for their first holiday abroad since the pandemic.
Philip was born in Corfu in June 1921 in a villa called Mon Repos that had once belonged to King George I of Greece.
The first known photo of Philip was taken on the island but when he was just 18 months old, he and his family were forced to leave Greece after the King, Constantine I, was forced to abdicate the throne.
Philip was carried to safety in a cot made from an orange box and the family eventually settled in France.

Both Philip's youngest son Edward and his daughter-in-law Sophie were known to have a close bond with the Duke of Edinburgh before his death aged 99 in April 2021.
Following the sad death of Prince Philip last year, Sophie was one of the first members of the Royal Family to speak out.
She tenderly described his final moments during a church service saying: "It was right for him. It was so gentle.
"It was just like somebody took him by the hand and off he went.
"Very, very peaceful and that’s all you want for somebody isn’t it?"
Meanwhile, several months later Sophie broke down in tears during an emotional interview saying Philip's death had has left a "giant-sized hole" in the lives of the Royal Family.
She said: "It's only when you do the normal things you would have done with them and you suddenly realise that they are not there, that you start to have an 'Oh my goodness' moment."
Meanwhile Philip's granddaughter Lady Louise has been following in her late grandfather's footsteps by taking up one of his favourite pastimes - carriage driving.
Earlier this year, she appeared at the famous Royal Windsor Horse Show, where she drove a carriage that belonged to her late grandfather.
And last year, Louise made her public speaking debut in a documentary about Philip's life where she spoke about how they bonded over the sport.
She said: "The Duke of Edinburgh has been so involved in my driving, but it's slightly scary as he invented the sport pretty much.
"But it's incredible to have learned first-hand from him and it definitely made us closer I think."
She also won over new fans when speaking fondly and movingly about Philip and his legacy.
Sharing her experiences of taking part in the Duke of Edinburgh's Award scheme, she said: "I'd always wanted to do it because of the skills that you develop as a result.
"But there was certainly an element of making my grandfather proud and honouring him by taking part in the award that has been so much of his life's work. And I definitely hope that I have made him proud."
