Prominent royal slips under the radar as she makes low-key appearance at Royal Randwick races
Princess Ingrid Alexandra of Norway sported a simple look as she attended the Royal Randwick races for Everest Day on Saturday.
The future queen of Norway, 21, was spotted enjoying a day at the races with her university friends.
Despite her royal status, Ingrid attended as a regular punter and avoided posing for photos on the media wall.
His name didn’t appear on any celebrity guest lists, either.
The stylish royal, who is second in line to the throne after her father, looked stylish in a blue and white patterned dress.
She accessorized her look with a pair of beige heels and left her brunette hair down as she enjoyed a fun day out with friends.

Ingrid was joined at the races by Queen Mary’s nephew, the Danish Count Nikolai, but he had a different experience.
Nikolai, 25, looked dapper in a gray suit as he posed for photos before stepping into the VIP section.
Nikolai, whose father is Prince Joachim of Denmark (husband of Queen Mary, younger brother of Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark), is seventh in line to the Danish throne.
Meanwhile, Ingrid moved to Australia in July to start a three-year undergraduate degree at the University of Sydney.
Here is the Royal Family’s full statement from Ingrid: ‘I am looking forward to starting my studies at the University of Sydney.
‘Being a student will be exciting and I look forward to gaining new perspectives on both European and international politics.
‘I’m sure I’ll learn a lot.’
He marked the joyous occasion with a series of photos taken on what appeared to be the University of Sydney campus.

While Ingrid is definitely trying to get used to the party life in Australia, it looks like she’s still learning the Aussie rules of the road.
Recently, a woman was spotted making a slight slip while trying to jump into a waiting Uber from the wrong side with her friend.
The princess, who apparently drove left-hand drive vehicles, was seen reaching for the door handle on the driver’s side.
Ingrid’s decision to move to Australia to continue her studies came after she began military training with the Engineer Battalion in the Nord Brigade last year.
Ingrid is the granddaughter of Norway’s reigning monarch, King Harald V, 88, and second in line to the throne after her father, Crown Prince Haakon, 52.
As the first female heir to the throne, she marks a turning point in Norwegian history.
The monarchy’s fortune is believed to be between $30 million and $100 million.
