Camilla recycles Anna Valentine coat dress she wore to Meghan and Harry's wedding for Royal Ascot

Queen Camilla was a vision in pink as she attended the second day of the Royal Ascot this afternoon. 

The royal, 75, looked effortlessly elegant in a V-necked pastel piece of outerwear, which she first wore to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding in 2018.

The sophisticated garment is by British designer Anna Valentine and features fringing on the front and lapel. 

Recreating the outfit she wore to her stepson's Windsor nuptials, Camilla paired her summery coat dress with a five-stranded pearl necklace with a large pink topaz in the middle.

The antique item was originally an Edwardian-era brooch and is said to have been purchased at auction by the Royals in 2000.

Camilla then paired this necklace with a matching set of dangly earrings with pink topaz jewels. 

However, the newly-crowned Queen did slightly alter the outfit she first debuted in May 2018 by changing up her hat for today's event.

The royal opted for camel-toned headpiece by her favourite designer Philip Treacy, which designed her wedding headpiece in 2005 and the feathered style she to Prince Harry and Meghan's wedding.

Camila was also pictured wearing a Van Cleef & Arpels Alhambra bracelet in blue.

The stylish royal completed her ensemble with a nude clutch bag and taupe suede heels. 

The King and Queen arrived at Royal Ascot today in a horse-drawn carriage with the Earl and Countess of Halifax.

The Countess of Halifax was formerly married to Andrew Parker Bowles' brother Richard, which makes her Camilla's ex-sister-in-law. 

The two couples were seen happily talking amongst themselves as they arrived at the event and waved to the crowds.

What's more, the outfit Camilla wore to Ascot yesterday also had a connection to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle too.

The Royal raised eyebrows after wearing a Dior dress to Royal Ascot, amid speculation Meghan Markle was turned down from collaborating with the brand.

Camilla opted for a soft cream coat and dress, with a matching broad-brimmed hat, from the French designer which she paired with her late mother-in-law's brooch.

The choice of fashion house is surprising after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were rumoured to be signing £15million a deal to become ambassadors for the brand - only for sources close to both Harry and Meghan and Dior to deny it.

A source told the Telegraph: 'The Duchess of Sussex is not in talks to sign a deal with Dior.

'There is no truth to the claims that she will partner with the French fashion house.'

A Dior insider said its team was 'nonplussed as to how the story came about'.   

The denial came after a resurfaced clip from a low-budget crime drama featuring the Duchess showed her working her angles in a photoshoot for a perfume ad.

 Royal experts have previously claimed the Duchess of Sussex was 'unresponsive' to Queen Consort Camilla's advice to her when she first joined The Firm.

A biography of the Queen Consort, written by Angela Levin, claims the then-Duchess of Cornwall organised lunches with Meghan and did her best to welcome her into the family - but her advice fell flat with an 'unresponsive' Meghan.

An extract of Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall: A Royal Survivor, which was published in the Telegraph, Levin claims Camilla was keen to help Meghan at the beginning of her relationship with Harry after herself struggling to be accepted by the Royal Family, and 'warmly' welcomed her when she first arrived in London.

The Duchess of Edinburgh stunned in white as she took part in the royal procession at Royal Ascot for the second day of festivities.

As the Duchess arrived alongside her husband Prince Edward, 59, she beamed as they strolled through the course.

As the picture-perfect couple arrived, they joined other royals including Zara and Mike Tindall.

Zara's attendance on the second day of the festival followed her show-stopping appearance on Tuesday, where she donned a £660 Cecilia pale green floral midi dress by Leo Lin for the occasion.

She matched the elegant outfit with a nude clutch bag and nude Sauvereign shoes adorned with gold gems and her initials on the bottom.

As the festivities continues for its second day in the baking summer sunshine, partying racegoers will no doubt be ready for another day of celebrations.

Keen racegoers brought glamour to Berkshire once more this morning as they arrived at the second day of Royal Ascot 2023.

 Stylish ladies were spotted walking into the racecourse ahead of another day of nail-biting races and plenty of partying.

The glamorous and colourful scenes at the beginning of day two come after hilarious antics captured last night as the opening day of the festival came to a close.

Among the scenes of revellers who were heading home after a day of partying were savvy women who had ditched their high heels in favour of sensible flat shoes to travel home in, as well as a gentleman who had picked up some snacks to tide him over for the evening.

In this year's pamphlet, the newly-crowned King and Queen took the opportunity to write a special message to guests.

They wrote: 'We are delighted to welcome you to Royal Ascot in this, the year of our Coronation. 

'Five days oh highly competitive racing will again be watched and enjoyed by millions, both here and abroad.

'We are happy in the knowledge that this historic race meeting continues to be a key influence on the global racing and breeding industries.

'The Royal Meeting always played a central role in Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth's calendar and the naming of the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes will be a most appropriate way to mark this lifelong interest. 

'A photographic exhibition in the Grandstand will also celebrate The late Queen's close association with Royal Ascot, including images of some of her twenty four winners. 

'We are sure his exhibition will prompt many happy memories.

'As improving sustainability is crucial to all events and businesses, we were pleased to hear that the Village Enclosure at Ascot will be net carbon zero this year and that the racecourse is making renewed efforts to minimalise waste.

'Finally, we wish the very best of good fortune to all the owners, breeders, trainers, jockeys and hardworking stable staff with runners this week.

'It is a huge and rare achievement to have a runner at Royal Ascot and we very much hope that you all enjoy the experience.' 

This year, organisers of the race have paid tribute to Royal Ascot's 'biggest fan', Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away last September.

During her 70-year reign, Her late Majesty attended almost every single Royal Ascot festival, with the exception of last year.

This year, organisers have displayed a heartwarming collection of photos of the Queen visiting Ascot over the years. 

They include a black-and-white photo of the royal riding on the tracks in 1960 when she was 34-years-old. 

The mother-of-four was pictured with a headscarf and riding boots on on as hwe horse galloped along the track.

The Queen was taking part in an unofficial race with others members of her royal party and ended up finishing fourth. 

What's more, the organisers also selecting a photograph of the Queen beaming at Ladies Day in 2013. 

The event turned out to be one of the Queen's most successful Ascots as her horse Estimate won the Gold Cup - making her the first monarch in 200 years to scoop the prize.

The late royal was pictured beaming at her trophy, which was presented to her by her son Prince Andrew. 

The Queen was dressed in one of her signature coat dresses in a pretty shade of purple. 

Underneath her jacket, the monarch wore a pretty floral dress - which perfectly complimented the flowers on her hat. 

In the image, the Queen is seen wearing a three-strand pearl necklace - which she also wore to her final ever Ascot in June 2021.
