Sad times: Max George and Michelle Keegan arrive at the airport ready to leave Barbados for the cold streets of Manchester

After having some fun in the sun the reality of returning home dawned on them.
Michelle Keegan and Max George looked a little disappointed to be leaving Barbados as they strolled through Grantley Adams International Airport yesterday.
The reality check will be particularly tough for Keegan who will be heading back to a cold, wet and windy Manchester.

The 24-year-old star of Coronation Street was hardly dressed for the cobbles of Weatherfield.
Michelle, who plays Tina McIntyre in Corrie, wore a black and white striped maxi-dress with a pair of flip flops.
Boy-band member Max, 23, opted for a pair of Superdry jogging bottoms and a grey vest.

The engaged couple were joined by Max's band-mate Tom Parker and his girlfriend Kelsey Hardwick.
Tom and Michelle seemed in sync and both sported a nautical style as the The Wanted singer wore a blue and white striped vest.
The boys had been in the Caribbean to play a private New year's Eve concert with Rihanna at the plush Sandy Lane resort where Simon Cowell is staying.

As if the thought of leaving the sandy paradise for a grim Mancunian street wasn't bad enough, the pair were then stopped at the airport by security.
Max and Michelle, who live together in Irlam, were about to join the line to check in when a security guard stopped them in their tracks.
The official took both of their passports and checked them thoroughly before asking the two British celebrities some questions.

As the security worker double checked their details a group of young fans who were also leaving the island watched on in amazement.
Luckily, however, they managed to get through the departure lounge and board their plane so Michelle can get straight back to her day job of pulling pints in the Rovers Return.
