King Charles kisses Sarah Ferguson at day 4 of Ascot

King Charles shared a heartwarming moment with Sarah Ferguson at Royal Ascot today, charming onlookers as he kissed the Duchess of York’s hand in a rare public gesture of affection.

The monarch warmly greeted Sarah and her daughter, Princess Eugenie, as the royals turned out in style for day four of the prestigious Berkshire event. 

Earlier, Eugenie was spotted exchanging a joyful embrace with her cousin Zara Tindall.

The King, who looked at ease throughout the afternoon, was later seen deep in conversation with members of the family near the royal enclosure.

Both Sarah and Eugenie have been regular fixtures at Ascot this week, continuing their strong presence on the royal racing circuit.

Sarah Ferguson made a style statement of her own in a regal rewear donning a vintage Catherine Walker dress she first wore back in 1991. 

The timeless navy ensemble brought a nostalgic flair to day four at Ascot, proving that true style never goes out of fashion.

Today’s cheerful appearance follows a streak of bad luck for King Charles’s horses earlier in the week, with none claiming victory on day one proving that while royal style always wins at Ascot, racing luck can be harder to pin down.
