Girls Looking for Ice Can Get Dumped In Snow

Wednesday April 25, 2007
If the recent royal dump is any indicator, girls should be wary when whisked off to vacation in the Swiss Alps. If memory serves right Prince William isn’t the first heir to British throne to use the romantic Alpine setting of Zermatt to serve notice that he rather ride the tram than the double chairlift.

In the shadow of the Matterhorn, Kate Middlteon was officially told that Prince Wills was off to schuss the wild snow by himself. And to think poor Kate forfeited a trip to Barbados with her family to get this cold shoulder.

Lesson here for all girls dreaming of a diamond is – when your prince is bearing skis, the Iceman may cometh not.
