Prince Harry and Meghan join the queen at first Royal Ascot together

All eyes, however, were on the Duchess of Sussex.

While her wedding gowns received an overall “yes” from royal watchers (and more than the odd fair-weathered monarchist), the Duchess of Sussex’s first turn as wedding guest since joining the royal family has divided opinions.

Thousands of race-goers cheered from the stands as the royal family arrived in several horse-drawn carriages and travelled to the royal box.

And when Meghan stepped out for a wedding last weekend, she did so in a budget-friendly fascinator by British high-street brand Marks & Spencer. “She is familiarizing herself with the landscape in this country Royal Foundation chief executive officer Lorraine Heggessey told People”.

Also in attendance were Her Majesty the Queen, the Earl and Countess of Wessex, the Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall, Princess Anne and Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie.

While all eyes were on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle for their one-month anniversary at the Royal Ascot on Tuesday, royal fans might have missed the Queen’s reaction to seeing the happy couple!

Meghan donned a stylish monochrome outfit, designed by Givenchy and completed her outfit with a Philip Treacy hat.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have joined The Queen at Royal Ascot today (June 19).

Meghan, 36, looked stunning in the white ensemble and matching hat with Prince Harry by her side.

For her first time at the race course, Meghan presented a trophy alongside her new husband to Frankie Dettori, for his triumph at the St. James’s Palace stakes.

Coral’s Harry Aitkenhead said yellow was his firm’s 2-1 favourite, adding: “It’s one-way traffic in the betting for the colour of the Queen’s hat on the opening day of Royal Ascot this year, with our punters continuing to pile in”.

The Queen, 92, nearly always wears hats on her royal outings.

Kensington Palace recently announced that Harry and Meghan’s first official foreign trip as a couple would be to Dublin in July.

Queen Elizabeth looked picture ideal in one of her many go-to bright hues in a sunny lemon yellow.

For her visit today, Sophie looked lovely in a mid-length dress in a lovely shade of baby pink.
