The Duke and Duchess of Sussex consistently move undercover within the US, and I love it. I love that their haters have no idea where they are and what they’re doing at any given moment. Over the years, we’ve heard that Harry and Meghan somewhat regularly go on ski trips. I have no idea where, but I would think that they would probably be spotted by photographers if they were regularly going to Aspen. There are tons of other good ski slopes out west though, and trust that Prince Harry is going to find them. Harry loves to ski. He’s a natural athlete and his mother loved to ski as well. So Harry is apparently carrying on the tradition by teaching his kids how to ski.
Meghan posted this Instagram of Harry and Archie skiing together with the caption, “My boys. Quick learner, Archie! So proud ❤️.” I would assume this is a somewhat old video, considering Meghan was just pap’d this week in Montecito? It’s more than possible that Archie and Lili’s spring break already happened and Meghan and Harry took them on a ski trip. Anyway, it’s really sweet. I’m sure someone will say “you always attack William and Kate for their endless ski holidays, you’re such a hypocrite!” Sure – the difference is that the bald demon harassed and abused Harry and Meghan until they left the UK and left royal work. The Sussexes go on ski trips because they’re private people on vacation. William and Kate’s ski trips are questioned because they’re “working royals” who act like lazy bums, living the high life through taxpayer funding and their slumlord profits. Hope this helps!
Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, shared a rare video of her six-year-old son, Prince Archie, taking to the slopes with dad Prince Harry ⛷️ “My boys,” she wrote. “Quick learner, Archie! So proud ❤️”#meghanmarkle #princeharry

My question. Who’s taking the video? Is it Meghan??? Can she ski now too? I swear I remember her saying she’d never been skiing before back in Vancouver for IG. Has she been learning? That’s cute if she has been. Also, it’s been a very warm year cuz there’s usually way more snow.
No chance of Meghan taking this video, the woman went down a dry hill on her behind.
On the tube, she screamed from the top until she reached the bottom.
I forgot about the tube!! LMAO
Ha! Okay, yeah even if she can maybe ski now I cannot see her holding a phone and skiing downhill at the same time.
I was wondering the same thing, kudos for her if she can ski and film simultaneously.
To be honest, all it would take would be to strap the camera to her chest while skiing behind them, which I suspect the filmer (I agree, probably not Meghan) is doing.
And I seriously cackled at this: “the woman went down a dry hill on her behind.” 😀
Love seeing this! I don’t know how long he’s been skiing but Archie looks like an accomplished natural!
He is booking it down that hill. Impressive
Dang! Good job Archie! I wonder if they had him micced up 🤣
I live in Colorado so baby’s first skis / snowboard and time on the slopes is very very real. Toddlers on boards with mics for their parents to see how they are handling different things is pretty common. And adorable!
There are ski schools that run all year long- as in, without snow, practicing various things. I’ve seen it but don’t understand it because I’m just too late to the slope culture.
There are so many Colorado residents who grew up on the slopes and know how to do it without it being $$$$.
I love that the Sussex kids are exposed to such a variety of experiences- emotional, physical and mental. It helps so much to have so many different experiences to draw on in new situations.
Good for Archie skiing with Dad!! Looks like they had a great time!
Archie is great. 👍I’d like to point out that he rides without poles.
It’s normal for little kids to go without poles. Once they get older, they can usually get the hang of using poles more easily. My kids got poles around age 7-8.
That’s how my daughter learned too. No poles when they’re little
Okay!
Thanks for the explanation.
But I’m still impressed 🙂
For sure he’s doing really well and going pretty fast!
This is true. In Scandinavia, little children learn with no poles – better to develop their instinctive sense of balance. The poles would hamper that.
For a six year-old, Archie is doing extremely well, I think, to be skiing that high up, and at such a speed behind his Dad, because while Harry is not speeding, he is definitely not going slowly either!
You just know that Harry is going to have an absolute BLAST when it’s time to teach Lili to ski.
that’s how they teach kids. learn control with skiing “snowplow” and later they teach stem turns using poles.
I think this is probably in Lake Tahoe or Mammoth.
I’m impressed, he’s not using poles. Go Archie!!
They do that so kids can concentrate on their legs, working to get them parallel and closer together. At that age they are still mostly snow plowing with feet widely separated and poles would just make it more complicated
Using poles is too complicated for little children. They aren’t there to make skiing easier. They are their own thing when you are able to ski more proficiently. Archie looks great for a beginner skier. Once he can get his legs more parallel for his turns, he’ll get some poles.
I prefer cross-country skiing to downhill because the thought of hurling myself down a mountain terrifies me so I am really impressed by Archie! He is skiing without poles! Incredible.
And I love the Sussexes’ ninja moves. Agree with Kaiser: It’s much more enjoyable watching them have fun because they’re doing it on their own dime, unlike the vacation-happy, grifting Waleses.
The problem isn’t so much the vacation, or even the money, but the sheer number of those holidays. H&M are busy on many fronts, but from time to time they find time for relaxation and fun with their children. W&K spend more months of the year on vacation. They don’t do anything else either, because showing up for 15 minutes twice a month hardly qualifies as work, or going to football matches. After the wedding, they went on vacation 6-8 times a year, sometimes for an entire month. It ended with a summons to the Queen, but not much has changed; the only thing is that they’ve that they hid it more, and during their trips, they’ve released pre-recorded “visits” to the media. Therefore, in this case, it’s possible and necessary to consider the costs, as they spend public money, including on Middleton, who is always with Kate.
One more observation. All of Harry’s, now Archie’s, exploits are a film showcase of his skills, exercises, sports, and aviation feats.
All of William’s “exploits” are photos of him walking on the beach with a surfboard under his arm, sitting in a helicopter, and him and Kate “climbing” in a harness across a flat meadow in an upside-down photo – this was noticed by commenters familiar with the terrain from the photos.
I dream of putting this boastful ignoramus in a competition with Harry🤣
To the strains of 🎶‘September’ 🎶…
Love the glimpses we get into their lives, it always warms my heart that they are safe, healthy and happy. These kids have never lived a day that there hasn’t been a hate article printed or posted somewhere about their parents and even somedays the hate is aimed at the kids themselves. It’s absolutely evil what the BRF leftovers have done to this family so seeing them like this is a beautiful thing.
OMG 😀 this is so cool, and the kids are growing up so fast ❤️
Super cute video. I can’t get into the winter sports I get cold too fast, but it looks like they’re having a great time. I got a little nervous when he got close to that ski lift pylon but he’s clearly better at it than I would be.
And it just goes to show how much those kids are doing without the paparazzi being 5 ft away from them. They have traveled so much that we found out about after the fact, and after they left. This is why they left, so they could choose what they want to show and when.
You can tell this triggered some because suddenly there are new photos of the other kids being posted which look to be from the ski trip last year. One of the many where Kate was too sick to work but healthy enough to do some downhill skiing.
Some kids just take to it naturally, others not so much. I have 5 siblings, 4 of us, were skiing like that at his age, 1 a bit better. The other 2 were mostly falling and rolling down the hill. It’s important to have the right instructor for kids as well. Neither of my parents had the patience for that. I am a veteran of the beautiful, tranquil, slopes of New England. Great job PA.
Definitely somewhere out west. We have a terrible snowpack this year and that run looks augmented with artificial snow.
Its so beautiful that Harry can recreate childhood moments for his kids without all the press intrusion he experienced. Who doesn’t remember Diana on the slopes telling the photographers to go away so her kids can ski in peace? Or young Harry with his brother and the york girls standing in the snow and forced to smile and answer questions before being allowed to ski? Or even Charles posing with his sons in ski gear getting caught on a hot mic saying he detests these “bloody people” but still smiling and having to dance to their tune. Harry and his family are now truly free. They get to ski in peace and Meghan the proud mama can show as much or as little as she wants on her own time and terms.
