Princess Diana also wore a white, monochrome outfit when she attended the racing event 32 years ago. She stunned in a white pencil suit, white heels and a white hat when she attended the event , which remains one of the highlights in the British horse racing calendar.

Today, the late fashion icon’s daughter-in-law stepped out in a white and black flamboyant fascinator for the event, to match her black heels and her black and gold clutch bag.

The newly-married Duchess of Sussex, who was dressed in Givenchy and was attending with her husband Prince Harry, took part in the royal carriage procession which begins the five-day event.

She wore her hair up and appeared to be enjoying the day, having never attended the Berkshire event before.

The 36-year-old also paid tribute to Princess Diana last weekend when she attended a wedding dressed in a blue and white floaty dress, which was very similar to one her late mother-in-law wore in 1986 – a Catherine Walker-designed tunic.

The Queen was hard to miss today as she was dressed in a bright yellow outfit, which she teamed with a black handbag and black shoes.

The monarch has often spoke highly of the event and it is believed to be one of her favourite weeks of the year.

Meghan and Harry are due to present the winning trophy at the racing event.

Princess Diana would often attended the race event and there are pictures of her attending with the Queen Mother in 1987.

Prince Charles, the Duchess of Cornwall, Princess Anne, Beatrice and Eugenie were also at the races today.

Meghan carried out her first official engagement without Prince Harry last week when she opened a toll bridge in Cheshire.

Kensington Palace have also announced that the couple will visit Dublin next month on July 10 and 11.

Buckingham Palace confirmed today that Zara Tindall gave birth to her second royal child yesterday.
