Kate Middleton enjoyed a ski trip in the Alps with her family before announcing that her cancer is in remission during an official royal engagement last week, according to a report. The Princess of Wales, 43, revealed the welcome health update during a visit to the Royal Marsden Hospital in London, where she underwent treatment last year.

Kate Middleton and Prince William went on a discreet ski trip with their family over the New Year, and we, the people, are only just hearing about it. According to the Daily Mail, the couple "slipped away from their home at Anmer on the Sandringham estate shortly after Christmas" and spent several days in the Alps—where they were joined by Kate's family.

In another sign of the progress she's making in her recovery following her cancer treatment, Kate Middleton apparently felt well enough after the holidays for one of her longtime favorite activities: Skiing.
