Cambridges Holiday in The Alps..

Today we had an unexpected surprise - some new family photos of the Cambridges. The photos were taken by PA Royal Photographer John Stillwell. He was invited to come and take the photos whilst the family were on holiday.

Kensington Palace confirmed that it was the first time either of the children had played in the snow.

The photos were released after the family returned home to ensure that their holiday remained private. There were a couple of shots of the couple which are lovely..

.. they looked to have a lovely time.

A lovely shot of Prince William and Princess Charlotte.

Kate chose to wear her E + O ski jacket and ski pants that she has had for many years. Her hat has been identified as the Esiber Pompon Alwin Navy Hat.

Kate is wearing Sorel 1964 Pac 2 Ski Boots.

She wore her simple Kiki McDonough Grace White Topaz Stud Earrings.

Prince George was wearing a Mountain Warehouse Cloud Snowsuit which retailed for £25.

Princess Charlotte was wearing the John Lewis Baby Wadded Snowsuit which retailed for £28.

She also wore Emu Australia Platinum Baby Booties.

She completed the look with the Johnstons of Elgin Cashmere Fairisle Baby Hat.

It was a lovely treat to see these photos today! We will be back soon as the couple return to official engagements.
