Meghan shares rare video of Harry and Archie skiing

The Duchess of Sussex has shared a short clip of Prince Harry and their son Archie skiing as she beams with pride about her ‘boys’. 

Meghan Markle, 44, gave fans a rare glimpse into the family’s life across the Pond in a brief video.

Filmed from behind, the Duke of Sussex, 41,  can be seen leading the way down the snow-covered slopes as the six-year-old follows closely behind. 

Young Archie effortlessly weaves in a zig-zag formation as he travels down the blanketed incline.

In the heart-warming post shared on Instagram, the Suits actress wrote: ‘My boys. Quick learner, Archie! So proud.’

It appears Archie has adopted his father’s love for the wintertime sport, as Harry once took to the slopes with his parents, Princess Diana and King Charles, at the Swiss resort Klosters as a child.

In December, Prince Harry was spotted on a skiing trip with Argentine polo player and close friend Nacho Figueras in Aspen, Colorado. 

The two met in 2006 at a charity match for Sentebale – an organisation set up by the Prince and which later counted Mr Figueras as a patron.

The Duke donned a mauve ski jacket with a blue helmet and sunglasses as he chatted with the Mr Figueras, 49, before the pair took to the slopes. 

It was understood that neither Meghan nor their two children, Archie and Lilibet, four, joined Harry on the December trip. However, the family did later enjoy Christmas at home in Montecito, California.

‘Prince Harry was with Nacho for about four hours on the mountains,’ a source told Hello! at the time. 

‘The pair spent the day skiing and enjoyed lunch together at one of the restaurants at the resort. Harry seemed happy and was also joined by a number of male friends on the slopes.’ 

The Duke of Sussex had previously been on a skiing holiday with his wife at Powder Mountain Ski Resort in Utah in February 2024. 

Posting pictures of Meghan smiling next to her friends, her close pal Heather Dorak wrote: ‘Wow, what a perfect trip!! My heart is so full.

‘The kids crushed the slopes by day, and the adults howled with laughter deep into the night. Truly lucky in love with our wonderful friends!’

It was previously speculated that both Archie and Lilibet joined their parents on the trip, with Meghan previously voicing her hopes for the two to learn how to ski.

Bridget Bridge, who is the wife of Invictus Games 2025 board member, told The Mirror: ‘Meghan said that she really wanted her children to learn to ski and that maybe Whistler was the ideal place. 

Bridget Bridge, who is the wife of an Invictus Games 2025 board member, told The Mirror: ‘Meghan said that she really wanted her children to learn to ski and that maybe Whistler was the ideal place. 

‘She said she didn’t ski, so we told her they must come and learn.’ 

In 2024, Harry also tried his hand at sit-skiing during a visit to a training camp before the 2025 Invictus Games in Canada. 

Meanwhile, during his 2025 visit to Aspen, he competed in the World Snow Polo Championships in Colorado. 

Harry donned a vibrant blue pullover, black helmet, white trousers and black sunglasses as he rode on the back of a brown horse and held a polo mallet.

The Duke was joined on his team at Rio Grande Park by polo stars Grant Gazi and Nic Roldan – while Figueras was on another side. 

Harry and Figueras have played polo alongside one another in various matches over the years, with the polo player becoming one of the Sussexes’ most vocal supporters.

The model – dubbed the ‘David Beckham of Polo’ – was also among a handful of the couple’s closest confidantes who appeared in their 2022 Netflix documentary.
