Meghan returns to the slopes: The duchess enjoys a trip to the snow with her model friend Kelly McKee Zajfen and her Pilates friend Heather Dorak two weeks after appearing at the ski resort with Prince Harry

Meghan Markle enjoyed a ski vacation with her friends Kelly McKee Zajfen and Heather Dorak, with the latter saying on Instagram that she enjoyed a “perfect trip.”

The Duchess of Sussex was photographed smiling with pilates business owner Dorak and former model Zajfen on the slopes of Powder Mountain near Salt Lake City in Utah.

The trio were seen in the photo wearing oversized coats, gloves, sunglasses and hats, while Dorak also posted photos of his family members on the trip.

Dorak, founder of Pilates Platinum, wrote: ‘Wow, what a perfect trip!’ My heart is so full. Children crushed the slopes during the day and adults howled with laughter well into the night. Really lucky in love with our wonderful friends!’

Zajfen also shared the photo in an Instagram post of her own, writing: ‘Beyond grateful for best friends! What trip! Thank you doesn’t even begin to express what my heart feels after this trip.

‘The love of family time, adventure and laughter made this trip one for the books! Here’s to many more adventures with friends who feel like family and appreciate every day.”

It comes two weeks after Meghan was pictured on the slopes of Whistler in Canada with Prince Harry for an event marking one year before the next Invictus Games.
