Happy and Glorious! Kate Middleton smiles on as England defeat Fiji in the Rugby World Cup quarter final to book their place in the semi

Kate Middleton looked delighted today as England defeated Fihi in the Rugby World Cup quarter final to book their place in the semi.

The Princess of Wales, 41, continued her new style of smart dressing for the victorious day, opting for a £3src white blazer from Zara – which she has previously worn.

Kate, who was seen singing the national anthem at Stade de Marseille, may have been the Red Roses lucky charm after she oversaw their incredible opening round victory over Argentina in the same stadium.

England fared better than Wales – who lost to to Argentina yesterday while Prince William and George cheered them on.

George – who appears to have shown his loyalty to Wales –  didn’t make the trip out today. Kate was instead joined by Bill Beaumont, the chairperson of World Rugby and Rob Bryers, President of the RFU.

The Princess was joined by tens of thousands of England fans who took over the sun-kissed city today. 

Supporters invaded the bars lining the streets to the Stade de Velodrome dressed as knights as they willed Steve Borthwick’s men to do the business.

They were seen belting out hits including Sweet Caroline as the idyllic French city turned English for one day only.

The Red Roses upped their game to defeat the Flying Fijians – who beat them at Twickenham earlier this year.

But among those backing them to do the job was Blair Sales, 6src, and his son Seb, 2src, who came dressed as knights for the epic fight.

Before the match, Mr Sales, who has worn the same outfit to the last three world cups, said: ‘I think we’ll do it today – we’ve got to against Fiji.’ Seb, who travelled with his father from Bath, added: ‘If we get the scrum right we should win.’
