Prince Harry rubbed shoulder’s with one of his wife’s glamorous BFFs at the polo yesterday.
Delfina Blaquier was snapped sporting a chic cream ensemble as she stepped out to watch a charity polo tournament in Colorado.
The 41-year-old Argentinian is married to Prince Harry’s polo pal Nacho Figueras, 45, who has been described as the ‘David Beckham of polo’.
She often attends matches to support her husband and his close friend the Duke of Sussex, 37.
Yesterday, she donned a chic £294 cream Simon Miller dress as she cheered the pair on to victory in the Sentebale ISPS Handa Polo Cup in Aspen.
Delfina paired the full-length, fitted Draco dress with a pair of £655 yellow Gianvito Rossi Bijoux sandals, and a £1,240 Gucci Dionysus jumbo GG chain wallet.

The mother-of-four protected herself from the sun, and added a casual touch to the ensemble, donning a straw hat over her short blonde bob.
Meanwhile, she looked fresh faced, and appeared to be sporting a make-up free look.
Throughout the day, the 41-year-old was snapped smiling and chatting with Prince Harry – who scored five times during the match – as well as her husband Nacho.
Delfina, who is the daughter of an Argentinian polo player, grew up in Buenos Aires.
Until the age of 18, she was an athlete, representing her country at various competitions in high jump.
She went to university and graduated with a degree in landscape design before becoming a professional model and photographer.
Delfina first met her husband at a polo match in Buenos Aires in 1997. The pair started dating in early 1998 and welcomed their first son in 2000, and wed in December 2005.
Pictured here with husband Nacho, who has been described as the ‘David Beckham of polo’, Delfina looked characteristically stylish in her fitted maxi dress, which she paired with flat sandals and a straw hat
The mother-of-four describes her family’s lifestyle as ‘nomadic’. While they have a base outside Buenos Aires, they do a lot of globetrotting as Nacho needs to travel for his athletic career, and they usually accompany him
They now have four children together: Hilario, 21; Aurora, 16; Artemo, 11; and Alba, eight.
Writing on her blog, Delfina has revealed that her children are homeschooled as a result of their nomadic lifestyle, as the family travels around the world for Nacho’s career.
While the clan spends a lot of time on the road, they are based outside Buenos Aires, where they own a 30-acre ranch housing some 40 world-class polo horses in 38,750-square-foot stables designed by Argentinian architect Juan Ignacio Ramos.
Their family home is just a five-minute walk from the stables.
Delfina, pictured here with Prince Harry in Aspen yesterday, has her own creative career in fashion and blogging, as well as being a mother-of-four
The 41-year-old is also a close friend of Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle, and has been seen with the royal couple at Sentebale Cup events
On top of supporting her husband’s career and looking after her children, Delfina has a busy creative career.
In 2018, she cofounded fashion brand Àcheval Pampa, with the label making its debut at Paris Fashion Week AW18.
The designs are inspired by her Argentinian heritage and achieves elevated gaucho style, an equestrian fashion of South American cowboys.
She also dedicates a lot of time to We Are Figueras, her fashion and lifestyle blog she created to share her family’s travels.
On the blog, she writes: ‘As the children grow older, I felt I needed to work on something for me, I consider myself a creative type of person and had all this ideas of doing something fun.

Now the couple shares four children (pictured), and often document the family’s ‘nomadic’ lifestyle as they travel around the world for Nacho’s career
The couple are friends with Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle, and are pictured here in May 2018, attending their wedding
‘Creating a blog was a lot of fun, and A lot of work. I thought that is was a great idea to put my point of view and share with you things I like doing, seeing, watching, getting or even visiting.
‘There is so much out there, and I thought it was a good idea to do it every where I was.’
The polo couple has been friends with Prince Harry for years, and were among the few attending perhaps one of the most exclusive events of the decade: the 2018 wedding of the royal to Meghan Markle.
They may have been overshadowed at the event by stars such as singer Ellie Goulding, David and Victoria Beckham, Elton John and Oprah Winfrey, but their attendance confirmed how much their friendship is valued by the royal couple.
