Prince Charles' goddaughter India Hicks hangs out with Jennifer Aniston and a slew of A-listers
NASSAU, BAHAMAS: If you could invite three Hollywood stars to dinner, who would that be? Here is India Hicks, the goddaughter of Prince Charles, who had the rare privilege to invite three Hollywood celebrities to dinner at her home in the Bahamas in July. Hicks, a descendant of the Mountbatten family, who moved to the Bahamas in 1996, hosted actors Jennifer Aniston and Jason Bateman along with late-night host Jimmy Kimmel at the Caribbean estate where she lives with her husband David Flint Wood.
In an Instagram post, Hicks shared pictures from the dinner at the picturesque island while updating fans on a recent and possibly more eventful trip to Miami from getting a new tooth, to the crazy car drive to the airport nearly killing her, then the flights that kept getting canceled so she sat in Dunkin Donuts before the boarding the flight and at the departure, turns out she hadn't checked the bag that she left at Dunkin Donuts and after several attempts, she couldn't retrieve it. She captioned the post, "So I got to Miami, and I even got a new tooth but in the taxi on the way back to the airport my elderly driver lost his mind and swerved directly into the opposite lane very nearly killing us both and the other driver. The other driver, understandably shaken, and livid, turned his car around and followed us, honking his horn, flashing his lights, shouting abuse, my driver now driving at speed took out his phone and with wrinkly arthritic fingers tried to make a call “Who are you calling?" I yelled from the back “the police” said the driver "I am reporting this crazy man”."

"Because of so many canceled flights it took me nearly a full day to get home, a journey that would normally only be a few hours. I sat in Dunkin' Donuts for several hours before boarding the final tiny plane home. 'Time to spare, fly Pineapple Air' For once this flight took off on time, the only issue was the cabin door did not seal properly, a rush of warm air filled the cabin as we took off. No one seemed to be at all alarmed that we were flying over the ocean with the door half open," Hicks continued.
"Once on the ground the luggage was unloaded, everyone took their bags and departed. "My case isn’t here" I cried to the baggage handler, “Lady, everything was unloaded" he replied. Only then did I remember I hadn’t checked the damn bag. It must still be sitting in Dunkin' Donuts. I called the airport. A helpful someone went in search of the bag. "Nope nothing" she said when I called back. Someone somewhere must be enjoying a brand new pickle ball bat. And my menopause pills. Have fun with those whoever you are," she further added.
Hicks also admitted a subsequent trip to Florida's principal city was no less memorable, albeit for the wrong reasons. The post includes photos of 'Friends' star Aniston, 53, posing for photos alongside the mother of five Hicks’ children, including daughter Domino, 13, and sons Conrad, 19, and Amory, 23.
Talking about the dinner, she added in the post, "This was a dinner we had a few weeks ago. It was a lot more fun than the past few days. A lot more fun, with some very funny people."
Hicks shared photos of the lush outdoor setting used to entertain her guests, featuring a large dining table decorated with watermelons and lemons close to a cluster of palm trees on her property. Other photos showed Bateman, 53, and Kimmel, 54, posing for selfies with the host and her family during the extravagant meal. Dinner shots show the group sitting together at an outdoor table. Aniston surely had a wonderful time as she also shared pics from her trip on her Instagram captioning, "Take us back"
Aniston was also seen posing next to Hicks' son Conard Flint Wood in an adorable picture that he shared on his Instagram as they both gazed into each other's eyes. He captioned the picture, "Stuff". Hicks really knows how to host a dinner and it's too bad we did not make it to her guest list.
