Britain's Princess Anne hosted the Festival of British Eventing at her Gatcombe Estate, Gloucestershire yesterday (03.08.08), and glamour model Katie Prince was in attendance.
Katie was a guest of brokerage firm BCG - with the co-operation of Princess Anne's office - and watched 35 riders compete in a range of events at the prestigious festival.
James Blackshaw from BGC said: "We invited Katie because of her enthusiasm and love of horses and the strides she is making in equestrianism. Just because she has been a successful glamour model doesn't mean she can't break into three-day eventing. We applaud her efforts."
The invitation comes just one week after Katie - who is also known as Jordan - was snubbed by organisers of the Cartier International Polo Day.
Bosses at the event branded the outspoken model "too chavvy" to attend.
At the time, Katie said: "It's pure snobbery. However good a horsewoman I may be, I'm also a glamour model. That embarrassed the organisers. Unless you're a toff or an aspiring actress, they don't want you."
In addition, Katie has received an invitation to perform a dressage routine in at the Horse of the Year Show in October.
