GQ:

Last night the Duke and Duchess Of Sussex made their first official appearance together in Britain, since the announcement in January that they are stepping back as senior working royals.

As the rain relentlessly beat down, outside London’s Mansion House, a photo of the couple started taking off on social media at the Endeavour Fund Awards.

The photograph, taken by Samir Hussein, looked like a movie still from a Hollywood romcom. The pouring rain managed to glisten triumphantly, rather than paint the usual bleak portrait of British weather – it captured a moment between the two of them, smiling warmly at each other like newlyweds. With background personnel blurred out, it was a snapshot of solidarity for a couple who, after months of social media backlash, had returned to the public eye once more.

I love stories of these kinds of shots. They often include the skill of the photographer, great timing and not just a little bit of luck.
