Since the pandemic, Sarah has been keeping busy with a number of exciting projects. Not only did she release her debut novel, Her Heart for a Compass last year, but last month she was announced as a co-founder of a new independent production house called Vestapol Films, based in the French capital.

Sarah will be working alongside Cyril Cadars and Mark Gill, along with Gertjan Rooijakkers.

The company is currently producing a comedy, The Paris Quintet, which will star actress Fanny Sidney.

Sarah isn't the only member of her family to be changing careers. Princess Eugenie's husband, Jack Brooksbank, has also recently taken on a new job – and with it will come a surprise move to Portugal.

Jack's reported role is in the sales, marketing and promotion side of the resort. Eugenie will still keep her current role, working at the art gallery Hauser & Wirth, albeit on a hybrid basis.
