Sir Timothy Laurence has made his first public appearance since confusion arose over his absence from last week's Garden Party in Edinburgh.
Princess Anne's husband joined the Princess Royal and other members of the Royal Family at Windsor Castle for a State Banquet this evening.
The retired Royal Navy officer, 70, had been notably absent from the Palace of Holyroodhouse event during Royal Week in Scotland.
His last photographed appearance was on 25th June with Anya Hurlbert during the press night performance of "Quadrophenia: A Mod Ballet" at Sadler's Wells Theatre.

However, the retired Royal Navy officer was not present in photographs from the Edinburgh Palace event.
GB News understands that Sir Tim's attendance was noted down in error and that he was not expected to attend.
The mix-up created confusion when Princess Anne, whom he married in 1992 after her divorce from Captain Mark Phillips, appeared at the Garden Party without her husband of over three decades.
