Princess Kate made fans do a double take this weekend when she made a spirited return to the stands.
The Princess of Wales stepped out for the England v Ireland clash at the Allianz Stadium on Saturday, appearing in her role as Patron of the Rugby Football Union.
And while England may not have had the ending they were hoping for, Kate certainly made a brilliant appearance in a blue coat.
After Ireland cruised to a 42-21 victory, the royal took to Instagram with a cheeky message: “Congratulations Ireland.
Always a pleasure to see @englandrugby in action at Twickenham @sixnationsrugby.”
During the high-energy match, Kate was seen laughing and chatting with John O’Driscoll, president of the Irish Rugby Football Union.
He also took a seat alongside England prop Fin Baxter, currently sidelined with a foot injury, and spent much of the match chatting to him and RFU president Deborah Griffin.
Despite the final word on the scoreboard, the trio appeared in cheerful spirits, sharing laughter as Ireland racked up points.
