Amber Higgins

Intro Amber began riding horses as a child, quickly rising through the ranks to become one of the UK’s most celebrated professional jockeys by her mid-20s. Known for her tenacity and unparalleled skill on the track, she took the world by storm, earning multiple notable victories and accolades. Five years ago, the British Empire honored her with a CBE for her contributions to horse racing, both on and off the track. Parallel to her riding career, Amber cultivated a glamorous public image, becoming a favorite subject for fashion photo shoots. Some campaigns, like a particularly bold editorial for Loaded magazine, received mixed reactions — some praised her daring style, while others felt it didn't match her poised persona. Nonetheless, Amber has always maintained control over her public image, evolving from sports star to respected media pundit. Today, Amber is a national TV pundit, combining her expert knowledge of horse racing with her love of fashion—a rare voice that bridges two worlds. She’s known for her insightful commentary and her elegant presence on screen. At major events like Royal Ascot, she doesn’t just talk horses; she’s also a key voice on fashion, particularly on Ladies Day. Amber is on location in the paddock, reviewing the horses lined up for the upcoming race. Elegant in her Ascot attire, she balances a deep respect for tradition with a modern sensibility in her commentary—celebrating both the sport and the style. Though no stranger to royalty through her CBE honor, each Royal Ascot feels special, and she carries a quiet pride representing her sport at such a prestigious event.
