Having only arrived into Gatwick at 7am yesterday morning, Tori made her way to Cardiff where she then attended a dinner at the Wales Millennium Centre, hosted by Cardiff Business Club in aid of the Prince’s Trust Cymru. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall were at the event and the Prince congratulated Tori on her achievement in his pre-dinner speech.
Ben and Tori arrived at Gatwick airport on Tuesday morning and are safely back with their families and starting to recover.
Omar is now so famous for being the first Egyptian to summit Everest that he has made page 3 of the Himalayan Times in Katmandu:
‘Nepal-Egypt ties hailed‘
‘The Embassy of Nepal in Cairo yesterday organised a reception to celebrate the golden jubilee of establishment of diplomatic relations between Nepal and Egypt and to welcome Omar Sherif Samra, the first Egyptian to scale Mt Everest’
