During a recent getaway to the ski slopes, Prince Harry snapped a memorable selfie featuring Olympic skier Eileen Gu and former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
In the vibrant photo shared on Eileen Gu’s Instagram on April 4, the 22-year-old athlete beams alongside the 41-year-old British royal and the 54-year-old political figure, all seated on a ski lift. The image was part of an engaging Instagram carousel.
Another image from the series captures Gu with Trudeau and his girlfriend, Katy Perry, posing outside a quaint cabin. Though the exact location remains a mystery, Gu simply captioned her collection of photos with “this week.”

The video clip showed Harry expertly guiding Archie down the snowy slopes, with the young prince impressively keeping pace.
“My boys,” Markle, 44, captioned the video. “Quick learner, Archie! So proud ❤️.”
Harry is a lifelong skier, having frequently gone on trips to icy locales with his late mother, Princess Diana, as a child.
Meanwhile, three-time Olympic gold medalist Gu recently returned from the 2026 Winter Games in Milan and Cortina, Italy, where she took home gold once again in the halfpipe event.
(Gu also won two silver medals for the big air and slopestyle competitions in Milan and Cortina. She was born and raised in the U.S. but chooses to compete for China in international competitions to honor her heritage.)
Freestyle skier Eileen Gu is a five-time Olympic medalist, making her the most decorated athlete at her sport in the history of the games. That means she doesn’t have time for reporters to belittle her accomplishments. After earning a silver medal in the women’s freeski slopestyle on Monday, February 16, she met with the media, […]
Following her huge success at the 2026 Winter Games, Gu celebrated becoming the most accomplished freestyle skater in Olympics history.
“I’m the most decorated freeskier of all time, male or female,” she told reporters on February 22. “I have the most gold medals ever, male or female. That’s a testament to competitive strength, it’s mental strength. It’s being able to perform under pressure, it has nothing to [do with] if you’re a boy or a girl.”
This year’s Winter Games came at a tumultuous time for the skier. Gu announced at an Olympics press conference in Milan and Cortina that her grandmother, Feng Guozhen, died shortly after the freestyle event.
“She was a really big part of my life growing up, and someone I looked up to immensely. She was a fighter,” Gu explained. “And I think what’s so interesting is that a lot of people just cruise through life, but she was a steamship. This woman commanded life, and she grabbed it by the reins, and she made it into what she wanted it to be. And she inspired me so much.”
Gu revealed that she’d made her grandmother a special promise the last time they saw each other.
China’s Eileen Gu is sharing an update on her personal life after winning her second straight freeski halfpipe gold medal at the 2026 Olympics. “The reason I was late is that I just found out that my grandma passed away,” Gu, 22, said during a press conference on Sunday, February 22, while becoming emotional. “She […]
“The last time I saw her before I came to the Olympics, she was very sick, so I knew that this was a possibility,” she said. “I didn’t promise her that I was going to win, but I did promise her that I was going to be brave, like she has been brave, and that’s why I keep referring to this theme of betting on myself and being brave and taking risks. It actually goes back to that promise that I made my grandma.”
Gu added, “I’m really happy that I was able to uphold that and hopefully do her proud, but it’s also a really difficult time for me now.”
The Olympian subsequently shared a carousel of photos of herself with her late grandmother via Instagram, writing, “Because I promised her I would be brave like her. I love you grandma.”
