Meghan Markle hits the slopes for ‘perfect trip’ with friends as Kate Middleton remains unseen

Meghan Markle enjoyed a day of skiing with friends at a resort in Utah as Kate Middleton continues to recover from surgery in private.

The Duchess of Sussex’s friend Heather Dorak posted an Instagram photo Thursday of herself smiling beside Markle and another friend, Kelly McKee Zajfen, at the top of Powder Mountain near Salt Lake City.

“Wow, what a perfect trip!!” Dorak captioned the post. “My heart is so full.”

The Pilates Platinum owner shared that all three moms had the best time hanging out with their children during the day and then bonding with each other in the evening.

“The kids crushed the slopes by day and the adults howled with laughter deep into the night,” she wrote.

“Truly lucky in love with our wonderful friends!”

McKee Zajfen, the co-founder of Alliance of Moms, shared the same photo on her account with a message about all the laughs they shared.

Several of Dorak’s followers commented on her post to express how happy they were to see Markle out and about.

The “Suits” alum’s ski summit comes amid her estranged sister-in-law Middleton’s mysterious recovery from abdominal surgery, which she underwent in January.

Prince William raised alarm bells for his wife’s well-being when he bailed on a royal engagement Tuesday as the Princess of Wales, 42, continued to remain unseen by the public.

Prince William worried fans when he was a no-show at a royal event this week, but Middleton’s rep confirmed the Princess of Wales is “doing well.” AP

However, Middleton’s rep confirmed to Page Six exclusively that the princess is “doing well.”

“Kensington Palace made it clear in January the timelines of the princess’ recovery and we’d only be providing significant updates,” her rep told us Thursday. “That guidance stands.”

Middleton isn’t expected to attend any public-facing events until after Easter, though she reportedly is already back to conducting her royal duties from bed as she recuperates.
