Due to popular demand, Catharina has posted another picture of Kate and William’s behind in her blog.  Thanks for the heads up, Cat!

The week-long holiday is over and the couple is presumably back in the UK.  Prince William in particular flew home on Sunday.  For more sightings and articles about his ski holiday, follow the previous entry below…

Prince William & Kate Middleton have been spotted by bloggers and fellow vacationers. Click here for twitter accounts.  After the tweets confirmed their presence, photographers have started gathering in Courchevel in hopes to get snaps.  But pictures are scarce.  According to royal reporter Richard Palmer in his tweet, he’s “not sure anyone’s buying.  Too expensive and where’s the interest?“  Well I’m pretty sure there’s A LOT of interest, which is why they’re expensive.  More likely, in light of Kate’s recent privacy suit victory over Rex Features, photographic agencies are simply too scared to buy.  Whatever people say, the Royals’ increased demand for privacy – starting with the Queen’s plea for a paparazzi ban in Sandringham last year- works!  We’ll see if we get more pictures over time.  As for now…

Coy Kate Covers her Face; William Jokingly Calls Kate’s Father “Dad”

There had been lots of kissing, hand holding and hugging in the snow. But sitting on a ski lift with a laughing group of friends, Kate Middleton suddenly went all shy. She hid her face in her hands as they set off for another day on the slopes at Courchevel in France.

Prince William & Kate, who are holidaying with Kate’s parents Mike and Carole, have been enjoying family get-togethers in the resort’s restaurants.

Ski instructor Meret Visser, who ate at a nearby table, said: “Prince William and Kate looked like a honeymoon couple. He held her hand under the table, stroked her hair and kissed her cheek.”

‘William was clearly very close to Kate’s father. Every time he spoke to him, William replied, “Yes, Dad”.  “Everyone in their group was laughing at this  -  it was clearly jokey. But William did look like part of the family.’

Yesterday the couple – both in red ski pants – raced down the slopes and had lunch al fresco, sitting on the snow at 9,000 ft with a group of friends, which includes Kate’s sister Pippa.
