Who is Delfina Blaquier?
Delfina is the wife of Nacho Figueras, an Argentinian polo player who befriended Prince Harry at a charity polo match in 2007.
The pair have remained close friends with the Duke of Sussex, who introduced his now-wife to the sports star prior to their royal wedding.
Through their husbands, Meghan and Delfina have forged a close bond, with the Argentine photographer previously referring to the Duchess of Sussex as her 'sister.'
In an exclusive 2022 interview with HELLO!, Delfina revealed that Harry's wife is "stronger than she knows" and a "wonderful" working mum.
Zara teases their friendship
Delfina and Zara have developed a firm friendship, bonding over their love of horses. She and Zara are patrons of the Magic Millions carnival.
Delfina also shares Zara's sporty streak, as she competed internationally in the women's high jump in the 1990s and by 1998 was a two-time gold medallist at the South American Junior Championships in Athletics.
Zara's stylish look
Both Delfina and Zara looked supremely elegant for the Magic Millions VIP lunch. Prince Harry's cousin swapped her stylish outerwear and suede boots for a totally different look, having been kitted out with a new pair of Valley sunglasses.
She was also wearing a gorgeous shirt dress - the 'Aurelia' style from Rebecca Vallance in the mini length.
The stylish dress featured a vibrant floral print with a striped hem and a belted waistline for an extra cinched look. Her collared garment was teamed with a lovely metallic clutch from Anya Hindmarch and a pair of unexpected shoes – open-toed mules by Tony Bianco, for a laid-back look.
