Lady Sarah gained
popularity after her appearance in the BBC documentary Elizabeth at
90: A Family Tribute, in which she captivated viewers with her
down-to-earth nature and evident affection for the Queen.
As the daughter of Princess
Margaret and Antony Armstrong-Jones, Sarah is 28th in line to the
throne and the Queen’s only niece. However, she prefers to maintain a life out
of the royal spotlight with her husband Daniel Chatto and their two sons,
Samuel and Arthur.
Nonetheless, Sarah maintains a
close relationship with the senior royals and reportedly enjoyed a special bond
with Her Majesty.
The respect and affection she
had for the monarch was clear to see in the BBC documentary in honour of Her
Majesty’s 90th birthday in 2016.

The Queen is said to have
“adored” Sarah, and used to allow her niece to accompany her to her
favourite hideaway, Craigowan Lodge, in Aberdeenshire. The pair grew
closer after the death of Princess Margaret in 2002, with whom the Queen
shared an incredibly strong bond.
Such is Sarah’s popularity
within the royal family, she was also selected to act as a godmother to Prince
Edward’s daughter Louise and the Duke of Gloucester’s daughter Rose.
