Prince Charles' goddaughter, India Hicks, 51, who was a bridesmaid at the Prince's wedding to Diana and is 678th in line to the throne, has shared a peek at her enviable home on the sun soaked island of the Bahamas. She is pictured on the white-washed porch of the picturesque villa overlooking the grounds

India's home is set among lush gardens and a picturesque pool, in which her children are often seen playing in. The scenes were often a backdrop to adverts for her products; In a 2016 interview with Business Insider, India cited her grandmother - who was the last Vicereine of India - as her professional inspiration

Pictures shared to her Instagram account show a glamorous life of al fresco dinners in their sprawling gardens fringed with palm trees, picturesque parties and classic English interiors and crockery in the villa-style house

India, who launched a podcast this month, was raised in Lambeth, South London, before relocating to warmer climates with long term partner David Flint Wood in 1996, and welcoming their first child a year later. Their stunning home is seen from the outside, with fresh flowers seen being collected in front of the house

The couple share the sprawling white-washed home - which boasts a pool and sea views - with their sons Felix, 21, Amory, 19, Conrad, 16, and daughter Domino, 11 (second left)– along with Wesley, 22, (far right) who she adopted when he was 15, after his mother - a Bahamian waitress- sadly died

On New Year's Eve the former Ralph Lauren model, who is the second cousin to the Prince Of Wales, hosted a party for 70 people with David, and admitted that it had to be moved to the driveway as there were so many people

Nature-lover India also shared a picture of a pretty play house in her gardens, revealing it was the perfect place for visiting children to have tea parties

India has been with long term partner David Flint Wood since the early nineties, and the couple moved to the Caribbean in 1996. She previously revealed they didn't feel the need to get married, explaining that being two foreigners in distant lands during their travels was more of a bond than marriage, and adding: 'It wasn’t something I needed to do'

India shared a harvest from her garden recently, writing: 'David’s homegrown bananas, and then some sugar apples, pineapples, guineps, and asparagus, which don’t go with the Bahamian summer fruit story at all but I shoved them in there regardless'

India's brave daughter Domino is seen trying out a new toy around the gardens, which she even rolled into the pool in a fun Instagram video. The children are often seen having a fun time on the beach and by the pool
