Arriving in a buggy due to her ongoing mobility issues, the 96-year-old monarch was all smiles in a bright pink ensemble and one of her other royal relatives decided to opt for the same hue too.

The Queen’s youngest son Prince Edward and his wife Sophie, Countess of Wessex joined the Queen at the 2022 show, and Sophie perfectly coordinated with her mother-in-law.

Dressed in a Gabriela Hearst pink pantsuit, the jacket of which retails at £1741 (AU$3085) the Countess of Wessex looked as chic as ever as she strolled through the gardens and literally stopped to smell the roses.

She accessorised her look with a Sophie Habsburg handbag and Penelope Chilver ‘Tango’ heels whilst her blonde locks were swept back into a low bun.

Princess Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi were also in attendance, but they didn’t adhere to the unofficial pink dress code.

The eldest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson opted for a blue and white Reformation dress with her hair styled half-up, half-down and accessorised with a black ribbon.

Beatrice and Edo, who married in 2020 in the midst of the pandemic, looked as in love as ever and seemed to be enjoying a brief moment away from their children Wolfie and Sienna.
