It was Sarah's first public outing in months and it comes just a day after it was revealed that her ex-husband Prince Andrew, had reached an out-of-court financial settlement with his accuser Virginia Giuffre.
Princess Beatrice and Eugenie's mother looked glamorous in a black gown with sheer sleeves and a sparkly belt.

Earlier in the day, the former royal was pictured being driven through Windsor Great Park in her Range Rover.
Sarah has been keeping a very low profile since the Duke was served with legal papers which alleged he sexually assaulted Virginia Giuffre in 2001 – even temporarily putting a pause on her YouTube channel, Fergie & Friends, where she used to read a children's book every day.
Her last video was posted on the 31st of December.
Sarah has also been silent on Instagram, and only recently returned after a month-long absence to make a special announcement.
