Simon didn't seem to mind his potential mum-in-law Carole Davis sharing their special day, and instead joined his other half and her parent before they headed to sea on a boat ride.

Avoiding any awkward Yuletide family fracas, the bunch looked happy and relaxed as they strolled across the golden sands.

Simon led the clan wearing a lifejacket over his bare chest and a snazzy pair of blue geometric-print swim shorts.

He made sure to wear his silver sunglasses in preparation for a day spent in the heat of the sun.

The music mogul was seen standing near a jet ski and holding the cord as he prepared to untie the fun watersports vehicle.

Meanwhile his adorable toddler Eric enjoyed a cuddle from his gran.

Carole plucked him up from the sand to keep his feet dry as she went for a paddle with Lauren.

Lauren showed off her toned legs and glowing tan in a tiny pair of white shorts and clingy matching vest top which showed off her curves.

After taking a stroll with her son earlier in the day, she then headed into the shallow waters with look-alike-mum Carole, who wore a trendy blue playsuit and tan hat.

After entertaining the youngster they were keen to explore the coastline.

Simon had perhaps forgotten his sea legs and stayed on-shore.

Nevertheless yummy mummy Lauren clambered on-board the Classic Man vessel holding tight to Eric.

Carole burst into giggles as the crew helped her leap into the vessel.

As they departed they glanced back at the rest on their family and friends still on the sands.

They looked to be having a good natter as they went on their adventure.

Meanwhile Simon was spotted making a new furry friend as he walked his dog.

As he burned off the Christmas calories on a beach walk, he was seen giving another puppy a kiss before chatting to its owner.

Yesterday, Simon did decide to take to the water.

He was riding the waves on a jet-ski with his partner Lauren Silverman, The X Factor mogul couldn’t keep the grin from his face.

The couple were joined in the sea by Lauren’s son Adam, from her previous relationship with Andrew Silverman.

Adam was beaming as his mum expertly manoeuvred her jet-ski across the waves, with Simon riding close to them.

The couple’s baby son Eric stayed safely on the beach during their thrill seeking outing, possibly hoping for a sighting of the monkey he befriended when the family hit the beach last week.

Enjoying their time on the Caribbean island, Simon and Lauren have enjoyed various excursions including a fun-packed boat ride.
