Taking to Twitter, Alvi shared how Beatrice, 31, was in Pakistan leading a delegation to the country. However, the Royal was also there to partake in some heli-skiing.

Heli-skiing is said to be an extreme version of the winter sport that includes off-trail, downhill skiing. The difference with this activity from ordinary skiing is that the peak is only reachable by helicopter instead of a traditional ski lift.

Harry & Beatrice’s close relationship

Stacey shared how close Harry was to his cousin and how they’d both attended her sister Princess Eugenie's wedding in October 2018. Guess we’ll just have to cross our fingers that the couple attends since they’re quite scarce lately.

At the beginning of the year, the Royal couple announced that they would become independent and step away from their senior roles.
