While the Wales family didn’t publicly announce their ski trip last year, several Twitter and Instagram users reported that they spotted the royals skiing the slopes and enjoying meals at restaurants in the mountains.
Given that they managed to keep the trip fairly under the radar, we suspect they might try and recreate the holiday this Easter break, especially given it’s been a stressful period for the family, following the loss of Queen Elizabeth II in September, and the release of Prince Harry’s bombshell memoir, Spare.
Charlotte and George likely have fond memories of Courcheval, with official portraits from their 2016 trip showing them and their parents posing against snowy backdrops.
A statement at the time said: “The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are delighted to share new photographs of their family. The images show Their Royal Highnesses enjoying a short skiing holiday with their children in the French Alps.
“This was their first holiday as a family of four and the first time either of the children had played in the snow. It was a very special and fun short holiday for the family, and they are grateful that John Stillwell [The PA photographer] was able to capture the moment so well. The Duke and Duchess hope people enjoy the photos.”
