Kate Vokes, 54, and Archie, 22, died on Thursday in what the family describe as a “tragic accident” while skiing off-piste in a Mont Blanc resort.
“We are beyond heartbroken at the loss of our beloved, wonderful Kate and Archie,” the devastated family said in a statement.
“Words cannot express how terrible we all feel nor the hole in our lives that has been left by this tragic accident.
“We kindly ask for privacy as we grieve together as a family.”
The family’s statement continued: “Kate was chair of the Oglesby Charitable Trust, a director of their family-owned property company Bruntwood, deputy chair of the Royal Exchange Theatre and a trustee of charities Shared Health and Focused Care.
“Archie was a personal trainer at Form in Manchester and in the previous year had achieved his level 1 ski instructor qualification in Canada.”
