Duchess of Edinburgh returns home from Paris Olympics and steps out in £280 gold dress

Prince Edward, 60, and Sophie, 59, joined Sir Richard Stilgoe, the CEO of The Orpheus Centre Rachel Black, Megan Robson, the Orpheus Centre Events Fundraiser, and Ash Benzaiten, the Theatre Manager for the Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre for the event.

The Orpheus Centre, of which Prince Edward is patron, is a disability charity and college in Surrey for young disabled adults to learn and develop through the arts.

The performance took place at the Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre in London.

Sophie and Edward's outing comes just days after the duchess was photographed attending the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

The mother-of-two has been the patron of the British Cycling Federation since 2018.

On Wednesday evening, Sophie looked beautiful in a £280 "Gelato Dress" from Matelier.

She paired the dress with a £110 "Vintage Peacock" handbag from the same brand.

To accessorise, Sophie donned a gorgeous pair of £167 small earrings from Giulia Barela.

The "Arizona" earrings are made in 24-carat gold-plated bronze.

For footwear, the duchess opted for £575 "champagne" wedge sandals from Jimmy Choo, which she has owned since 2022.
