Getting ski tips from the best? Prince Harry poses in selfie alongside Winter Olympics champion Eileen Gu - and ex-Canada PM Justin Trudeau

By OLIVIA ALLHUSEN, FOREIGN NEWS REPORTER Published: 01:41, 5 April 2026 | Updated: 01:41, 5 April 2026 Prince Harry was all smiles as he posed for a ski lift selfie alongside Winter Olympics champion Eileen Gu and former Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau during a star-studded trip to the slopes. The Duke of Sussex, 41, appeared relaxed in a black ski suit, helmet and goggles as he joined the high-profile pair mid-run, with Gu later sharing the snap to social media. Fans quickly flooded the comments, with one gushing: 'Sports bringing the world together!' while another wrote: 'Obsessed w this.'  A third added: 'Such a beautiful, classy and intelligent woman,' as others joked about the unlikely trio meeting on a ski lift.  Another commented: 'Imagine going snowboarding one day and you run into Trudeau, Gu, and a prince on the lift,' while one fan simply said: 'Looks so lovely, miss u!!'  Additional photos included in Gu's Instagram carousel offered a further glimpse into her travels, the food she's been eating and the quality time she's spent with friends - including Trudeau's girlfriend, Katy Perry. Harry and Trudeau are longtime friends. The former prime minister appeared at the Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025, and the two were seen laughing and chatting together at an indoor rowing event on the last day of competition.  The outing comes as Harry enjoys an Easter break on the slopes with Meghan Markle and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
