Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh and Prince Edward have briefly been reunited after spending two weeks apart.

King Charles's youngest sibling, 59, landed at Heathrow Airport from Indonesia on Sunday.


Prince Edward began his visit to Singapore on November 14, where he attended a reception for the Commonwealth Games Federation at Swissȏtel the Stamford.

This trip meant that the Duke of Edinburgh was forced to miss Charles's private birthday bash at Clarence House.

Prince Edward took a plane on Thursday from Sydney to Jakarta, where he visited the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Nusantara as well as the British School Jakarta.

Meanwhile, the Duchess of Edinburgh was in the UK and wowed at the South Korean state banquet last Tuesday.

Sophie rewore her Suzannah London Coronation Gown which she paired with an Anya Hindmarch Maud Clutch in Silver.

For footwear, the 58-year-old donned a £455 pair of Emmy London ‘Charlotte’ Pumps.

Their description says: "Charlotte is one of our most timeless and exquisite styles.

"These ivory bridal shoes have a 95mm heel and a lovely pointed toe.

"The metallic gold leather cross-over straps form a 'V' shape that lengthens your legs, while the double buckle is adjustable for ultimate comfort and security throughout your wedding day."

Edward's return to the UK meant the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh could have a quick reunion before Sophie jetted off to Colombia.

The duchess, at the request of the Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Office, is currently visiting Colombia until Friday, December 1.

Sophie arrived in the country today, where she will participate in events in Bogotá and Cali to support the Women, Peace and Security Agenda (WPS).

She is also expected to carry on her advocacy for survivors of sexual abuse.
