Prince Andrew has been spotted riding with a groom in Windsor Great Park after returning from his summer holiday at Balmoral.
The Duke of York, 64, was snapped sporting a maroon jumper and riding hat as he took to the saddle near his Royal Lodge home.
This is the first time Andrew has been seen in public for several months following reports that his brother, King Charles, was trying to force him out of his beloved 30-room mansion.
The Duke faces fresh scrutiny later this month upon the release of the Emily Maitlis produced drama, A Very Royal Scandal.
The Amazon MGM production is set to take a fresh look at the infamous Newsnight interview he had with the former BBC presenter following the Jeffrey Epstein scandal.

The upcoming Amazon MGM Studios series is based on Emily Maitlis' perspective in securing an interview with Prince Andrew to discuss the Jeffrey Epstein debacle.
The TV drama follows the release of the Netflix drama 'Scoop' which proved a runaway success for the streaming giant.
A Very Royal Scandal will see Michael Sheen play Prince Andrew, Ruth Wilson as Emily Maitlis and Joanna Scanlan as Amanda Thirsk. Actress Sofia Oxenham has been lined up to play Princess Beatrice.
The drama focuses on the Duke of York's excruciating sitdown interview in 2019, where he was quizzed by Maitlis about his friendship with late billionaire convicted paedophile, Jeffrey Epstein.

'Prince Andrew & the Epstein Scandal’ was aired on Newsnight on the BBC in November 2019, and also questioned the Prince’s relationship with Virginia Roberts Giuffre who alleged he sexually assaulted her.
The Duke consistently and vehemently denies the allegations. He reached an out-of-court settlement with Virginia, who had brought a civil case against the Prince for sexual assault. The settlement was not an admission of guilt and Andrew accepted no liability.
The appearance comes amid reports that King Charles recently opted against renewing a 10-man security team stationed at Prince Andrew’s residence, Royal Lodge, due to escalating costs prompting fresh speculation that Andrew may soon be forced to vacate the property.
