Lady Sarah is a godmother to Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex,[2] Lady Rose Gilman, and Lady Louise Windsor.[3] She also has half-siblings on her father's side: Polly Fry (born 1960),[4] Lady Frances Armstrong-Jones (born 1979), and Jasper Cable-Alexander (born 1998).[5][6]
Lady Sarah and her brother, David, then Viscount Linley, grew up in the nursery of Kensington Palace, Apartment 10.[7][8] They were raised with a nanny called Verona Sumner, although their parents, especially their father, were comparatively hands-on (for the time), with their father teaching them to build things and be creative.[7]
Their parents' marriage was fractious; the couple formally separated when Sarah was 12 and divorced when she was 14. She and her brother spent weekends, depending on with which parent, at either Nymans or Royal Lodge.[7] Holidays were given to the royal estates at Sandringham and Balmoral, where Lady Sarah did a lot of landscape painting.[7]
Chatto has been exhibiting her work, always under the name Sarah Armstrong-Jones, at The Redfern Gallery since 1995.[11] Her work has won awards: the Winsor & Newton Prize in 1988 and the Creswick Landscape Prize in 1990.[11]
In 2004, she became vice president of the Royal Ballet, of which her mother had been president.[7][12]
Chatto does not undertake public duties and is not considered a "working royal". However, it has been reported that she was close to her aunt Queen Elizabeth II, being the queen's only niece. She is frequently seen attending public events such as jubilees and funerals, as well as semi-private royal family events such as the Sandringham Christmas service with her sons.[13]
