While Prince William cheered on Wales at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, his aunt Princess Anne made her own royal rugby appearance in Dublin.
Patron of Scottish rugby, she was spotted at the Aviva Stadium on Saturday cheering on Scotland as they faced the Irish national rugby union team in the Six Nations Championship.
Accompanied by her husband, Sir Tim Laurence, the Princess Royal brought her trademark energy to the stands and engaged with players, officials and fans alike ahead of kick-off.
During the visit, Anne also took time to meet key Scottish Rugby representatives and discuss the ongoing development of the women’s and youth game in Scotland.
Earlier on Friday, she attended Gold Cup Day, the grand finale of the 2026 Cheltenham Festival, with her daughter Zara Tindall.
During the day she was seen taking an interest in the proceedings, chatting with race officials and enjoying the lively atmosphere of one of Britain’s most prestigious horse racing events.
