Queen Camilla is known for her love of horses and her outfits. The lifelong equestrian and patron of the British Equestrian Federation has transitioned from riding to focusing on equestrian support and co-owning racehorses. Through her roles as Patron and President of the Ebony Horse Club, she supports various equestrian causes. Following Queen Elizabeth II's death, she co-owns royal racehorses and announced her retirement from riding in 2023, humorously citing her age, while remaining active in charity and racing. Today, the Queen attended the Badminton Horse Trials in a surprisingly new, fashionable style.

A Departure From Tradition

Queen Camilla, known for being particular about her outfits, broke one of her fashion rules at the Badminton Horse Trials, enhancing her style by wearing a dark pantsuit with a white blouse, black belt, and sneakers, suitable for the event's grassy terrain. This marked a departure from her typical long-sleeved, elegant dresses. She complemented her look with a navy blue Chanel vanity bag featuring a quilted pattern and top handle.

A Lengthy Association

Young members of the Ebony Horse Club entertained the audience and Queen Camilla with their equestrian skills during the event. The charity, established in Brixton in 1996, celebrates its 30th anniversary and supports disadvantaged youth through riding instruction and stable management training, enhancing their wellbeing and opportunities in equestrian careers. Queen Camilla has been the President since 2009, actively engaging with the club and its young riders.

Emotions Attached

Queen Camilla expressed her emotional connection to a club she discovered years ago while speaking with BBC Sport broadcaster Clare Balding. Since becoming the club's president, she has hosted supporters at Clarence House and officially opened the Ebony Community Riding Centre in 2011.

An Old Connection

The Queen met many leading personalities, including the six-time Badminton Trials winner Lucinda Green. However, surprisingly, she also bumped into her ex-husband, Andrew Parker Bowles, at the equestrian reception. Parker Bowles recently stepped in as a substitute for Princess Anne at a Thanksgiving service for Ian Balding, who was Balding’s father and former racehorse trainer for Queen Elizabeth.
