One notable absentee was the Princess of Wales who pulled out of attending Royal Ascot as she continues to find the right balance following her treatment for cancer.

Ella's passion for music

Ella is the daughter of Prince and Princess Michael of Kent and regularly attends high-profile royal events.

She recently spoke with HELLO! in an exclusive interview about her patronage, Restore the Music, a charity which provides state schools across the country with world class musical instruments and music tech resources.

Ella also revealed she's also working with Make a Difference Impact Foundation on a global climate concert for climate to take place in Brazil before COP30 in November.

"It's a celebration and a call to action, and will bring together a fantastic lineup of artists and speakers to amplify the moral urgency of the climate crisis," she told HELLO!.

The music aficionado was also personally invited by the Princess of Wales to work on Kate's annual carol concert, Together at Christmas.

Speaking to HELLO!, Ella said: "It was such an honour to be involved, and very thoughtful and kind-hearted of the Princess to include me. I was very touched. She was so lovely to work with, always gracious, very creative and with so much vision and passion for the many charities and causes she supports."
