Princess Anne's lady-in-waiting, Dolly Maude, accompanied Zara Tindall at Cheltenham racecourse on her brother, Peter Phillips's birthday.
The pair, who are old friends, donned the racing with Mrs Maude, 51, having unofficially served as the "right-hand woman to" Zara and the Princess Royal for years.
The 51-year-old was the maid of honour at the Tindall's wedding in 2011 and has been described as "fiercely loyal and discreet" by those who know her.
Mrs Maude joined her close friend as Zara's brother celebrated his 48th birthday on November 15.

The Princess Royal's lady-in-waiting helped deliver Zara's third child on a bathroom floor, after the baby arrived far earlier than expected in 2021.
She is known for her love of horses and is often seen in Ascot's royal box alongside Princess Anne.
Mrs Maude made her first official appearance as the Princess's lady-in-waiting in March last year.
A friend of the 51-year-old previously told The Telegraph: "She's such a great girl. For the Princess Royal, it's a perfect fit because of their shared love of dogs and horses.
