Given the number of engagements the royal family attends, it's inevitable that every so often, one will take place during inclement weather.
Rather than be deterred by a little rainfall, the royals are made of sturdy stuff, donning their outdoor gear and getting stuck in despite the rain.
From the late Queen Elizabeth II's hooded raincoat to Meghan Markle's outdoorsy waterproof and Princess Anne's ready-for-anything attire, read on for all the times the royals looked ravishing in raincoats.
Princess Anne's wardrobe staple
During a visit to Bournemouth this week, the Princess Royal stepped out in a full-length raincoat, but it's not the first time the 73-year-old has rocked the practical garment. She was first spotted in her trusty waterproof way back in 1984 when she peeped out from under the hood at the Windsor Horse Trials.
Princess Anne donned the coat again in 2006 for a wet wander at the Gatcombe Horse Trials.
Queen Elizabeth II's hooded raincoat
The late Queen delighted onlookers at the Windsor Horse Trials in 2007 when she donned a hooded coat that channeled a garden gnome.
Her Majesty adored the horse trials and wouldn't let a little rain get in the way of enjoying the event, perusing the programme and giggling away despite the unpleasant weather.
