Her hair resplendent in a ponytail, she wore a light blue rugby t-shirt with the England badge and and smart navy trousers, paired with brilliant white trainers.

She also sported gold hoop earrings and her sapphire engagement ring before getting stuck in on the pitch.

The princess visited the rugby club as part of her campaigning around young people’s mental health.

Among the players she met was England star and BBC Sport presenter Ugo Monye, as well as fellow England player Danny Care.

Princess Kate has been patron of the Rugby Football Union since 2020 – taking over the role from Prince Harry after he stepped down as a senior royal.
