All the times Sarah Ferguson wore her wedding tiara before it reappeared on Princess Beatrice

Sarah, Duchess of York has described herself and her ex-husband, the Duke of York , as the "happiest divorced couple in the world".

The author and Prince Andrew, both 64, still live together at Royal Lodge in Windsor, with Sarah being back in the royal fold in recent years, having joined the King and his family in Sandringham at Christmas and Easter in Windsor.

Tuesday marks 38 years since Andrew and Sarah tied the knot at Westminster Abbey on 23 July 1986.

The blushing bride wore an embroidered ivory silk gown by Lindka Cierach which she accessorised with the York tiara, a floral-shaped diamond scroll headpiece designed by Garrard.

It was believed to be a present from her in-laws, Queen Elizabeth II and the late Duke of Edinburgh.

While the likes of the Princess of Wales and the Duchess of Sussex have never wore their wedding tiaras publicly since their nuptials, Sarah wore the York tiara on several formal occasions – even after she finalised her divorce from Andrew in 1996.

And much to royal fans' delight, it reappeared after more than two decades when Sarah and Andrew's eldest daughter, Princess Beatrice , wore her mother's tiara at Crown Prince Hussein and Princess Rajwa's royal wedding in Jordan in June 2023.
