Though these photos were taken on June 17th, they show that the Duchess of Cambridge has a real knack for keeping the wee ones entertained.

After joining in on a camping trip in Kent – part of an outward bound program created by ARK Schools – HRH joined Prince William, Prince Harry, Zara Phillips and her husband, Mike Tindall, and Peter Phillips and his family at the Beaufort Polo Club in Gloucestershire.

While Harry and William competed in a a charity match to raise much for a few particular charities, Catherine played with Peter and Autumn Phillips‘ daughter, Savannah (born in December 2010).

Savannah was smitten with the Cambridge’s dog, Lupo, who was only six months at that point.  If I may say so, the Duchess was a natural when it came to playing with Princess Anne’s granddaughter.  Read More »

Happy New Year, Mr. Fitzherbert

After taking some time off to enjoy the holidays, we are back with a brand new episode of The Duchess Diary!

Sophie wore a custom-made Jane Taylor headband, made of velour felt feathers and Swarovski cosmic crystals to match her Emilia Wickstead coat.  Read More »
