Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding will see young Royals put skiing plans on ice

On ice: The young Royal will miss the end of the skiing season next year as it clashes with Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding


Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding has put paid to a favourite Royal past-time next year – skiing.

Most of the young Royals have had to put plans on ice for 2011 as the April 29 wedding coincides with the end of the season – when the Royals traditionally hit the slopes.

‘Prince Harry was invited to stay with pals in a fabulous chalet in Val D’Isere but he won’t be able to make it,’ says a spy at the Club Bellevarde VIP lodge.


‘Beatrice and Eugenie look doubtful too. No one wants to risk breaking limbs days before the wedding.’

The world first glimpsed William and Kate as a couple when they were spotted kissing in Klosters in 2004.

Meanwhile, Kate is to embark on a sailing course so she can join William on the waves.

Kate, 28,is unable to play polo, William’s favourite sport, as she is allergic to horses.

But William, also 28, has bought her a course of sailing lessons for Christmas.

‘William loves to sail and Kate wants to share in one of his passions,’ says a source.

She will learn to sail in North Wales, near to where the Prince is serving as a search and rescue helicopter pilot at RAF Valley.

‘William hopes if she gains confidence through lessons, they could have a great shared hobby,’ the source adds.


Fergie flooded with TV offers in U.S.

THE Duchess of York has had 28 offers from U.S. TV channels to commentate on the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton – but has rejected them all, much to the relief of the Royal Family.

There were fears Fergie, 51, would use the nuptials to clear the remainder of the £5 million debt that put her at risk of bankruptcy.

But her spokesman says: ‘She’s not interested.’

Harry meets his match

Prince Harry met his match last week when he jokingly refused to pay his tab for cocktails at Chelsea nightclub Public, owned by his best friend Guy Pelly.

A spy says: ‘Harry told his waitress, “I’m a Prince, I’m not paying the bill,” but she retorted, “Well I’m a waitress and I need a tip.”

Guy was always going to waive the bill and the whole thing was flirtatious banter. Harry and the waitress were in fits of giggles.’
