Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh Honor Queen Elizabeth with Historic Visit

In a remarkable display of respect and admiration, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh made history as the first members of the royal family to visit Oakham’s newly unveiled memorial statue of II.

This significant event took place on a rainy Tuesday, as and Sophie paid their respects at the nation’s first permanent tribute to the late monarch.

Standing beside the impressive seven-foot bronze statue, the couple braved the elements to honor Queen Elizabeth, marking a poignant moment in royal history.

This visit is particularly noteworthy as it represents the first official engagement by any royal family member at this memorial, making it a memorable occasion for both the couple and the community.

Captured on camera, the touching scene was shared widely on social media, particularly by GHR, the local paper covering Stanford and Rutland News.

The footage shows the Duke and Duchess approaching the sculpture and pausing in front of a crown, taking a moment to admire the artistry and significance of the statue.

Duchess Sophie looked elegant in a cream-colored Prada wool coat, paired with a beautifully patterned silk blouse by Gabriela Hearst, which retails for £945.

She completed her chic look with bottle-green high-waisted flared pants from Victoria Beckham, priced at £679.

To add a pop of color, she accessorized with an orange bag designed by Sophie Habsburg, valued at £281, and cream leather pointed shoes by Nicholas Sexton, costing £179.

Prince Edward complemented his wife’s stylish appearance with a light green jacket, blue trousers, and a crisp white shirt adorned with a green tie.

His choice of brown leather moccasins added a touch of sophistication to his overall look, showcasing the couple’s flair for fashion.

Fans of the royal couple expressed their excitement on social media, sharing their thoughts on the couple’s appearance.

One user on X remarked, “We adore the new S.H.

that has been released.

Today, the Duke and Duchess are stunning!”

Another chimed in, expressing joy at seeing them out and about, while a third praised the Duchess’s ensemble, highlighting the lovely color and style of her coat.

The statue itself is a striking representation of a youthful Queen Elizabeth, elegantly dressed in royal robes, with her three beloved corgis faithfully by her side.

It was unveiled on April 21, a date that would have marked the late queen’s 98th birthday, adding an extra layer of significance to the memorial.
