It wasn't long before her Instagram followers filled the comment section of her post with sweet messages. "Happy Mother's Day!! Think it 'run's in the family'. Just like your mum, your sister and daughters you’re an amazing and strong mum," said one, while another added: "I'm sure she is standing by your side everyday."

Susan died in a car accident in 1998. She was living in Argentina with her second husband Hector Barrantes when she was killed driving from her polo farm. She had left Sarah - who was eight at the time - to be raised by her father back in Hampshire, which caused friction between the two.

However, doting mum Sarah penned an extremely heartfelt letter to her mother in 2015, saying that she had forgiven her. "It has been 17 years since you departed on your last drive from the farm in Argentina," she wrote. "There is not a day that doesn't go by when I wish I could pick up the telephone and tell you what I have been doing."

Meanwhile, Sarah's youngest daughter Eugenie also paid a heartwarming tribute to mark Mother's Day. Alongside an image with her son and a stunning portrait of Sarah, the royal captioned the images: "Happy Mother's Day to every mother out there."
