The Duchess of Sussex recently delighted her followers by posting a brief video showcasing Prince Harry and their son Archie enjoying a skiing adventure. Her pride in her “boys” was evident as she shared this special moment.
Meghan Markle, now 44, offered a rare peek into their life in the U.S. through this short clip, which lasts only a few seconds but captures a warm family scene.
The video, shot from behind, shows 41-year-old Prince Harry skillfully leading the way down a snowy slope, with six-year-old Archie following closely and confidently.
Young Archie impressively navigates the slopes in a zig-zag pattern, displaying his budding skiing skills as he makes his way down the snow-covered hill.
In a heartfelt caption accompanying the Instagram post, the former Suits star wrote, “My boys. Quick learner, Archie! So proud,” expressing her joy and pride.
It seems Archie has inherited his father’s enthusiasm for skiing. Prince Harry, as a child, enjoyed skiing trips with his parents, Princess Diana and King Charles III, at the renowned Swiss resort of Klosters.
Last December, Prince Harry was spotted on a skiing trip with Argentine polo player and close friend Nacho Figueras in Aspen, Colorado.
Harry and Figueras first met in 2006 at a charity match for Sentebale, a charity which was set up by the prince and later counted Figueras as a patron.

The Duke donned a mauve ski jacket with a blue helmet and sunglasses as he chatted with the 48-year-old 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 skiing trip. However, the family of four 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 friend 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.
‘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.
