And in terms of fashion, there's nothing more joyful than wearing a kaleidoscope of colours! These royal ladies certainly seem to agree, since the likes of the Countess of Wessex, the Duchess of Cambridge and even the Queen have rocked the rainbow trend in the past - and here's the proof.
The Countess of Wessex
This is one of our favourite throwback photos of Sophie! The royal certainly turned heads in this striped rainbow skirt suit at Royal Ascot in 2001. We'd love to know if this outfit is still in her wardrobe - and that sweet box bag would be very on-trend today…

Pictured at the Royal Variety show back in 1999, we can't get over this incredible shot of Her Majesty wearing glittering rainbow sequins. What. A. Moment.

Mike wrote on Instagram: "Thank you to everyone working in the @nhs. @kindred_social is raising money for the NHS through these T-shirts. If you would like one please go to www.bekindbekindred.com."

Kate is known for wearing bright and beautiful colours, but she usually sticks to one shade - so this striped and shimmering look from Tory Burch was quite a statement during her royal tour of India and Bhutan back in 2015. We would love to see this gown again!
Princess Beatrice
Remember Princess Beatrice's colourful ensemble for Peter and Autumn Phillips' wedding back in 2008?

Meghan loves her neutral colours - or an occasional colour-blocking look - but this sleek gown surely falls into the rainbow category. The then-actress looked beautiful as she attended a SAG Awards pre-party in 2013.

She may not be official royalty, but we couldn't resist including Diana's niece Kitty, who looked incredible in this bold Dolce and Gabbana number as she walked the runway in 2019.
