A rare public view of singer Prince as he walks through Heathrow after a flight from the United States in 2006
The normally camera-shy celebrity was relaxed as he strode briskly through the airport’s terminal largely unnoticed by other passengers and bystanders after a flight from Minneapolis.
A day later Prince was on stage at the Brit Awards where he performed a barn-storming rendition of Purple Rain to wide acclaim. The singer died in 2016.
