People magazine described both women as having, “lynx-like eyes perched regally above perfect smiles from pristine teeth.”

The one difference between the two is that the British royal has chestnut-coloured hair and the cyclist rocks blond locks.

The 24-year-old holds an impressive resume: she’s the first person in the history of cycling to simultaneously hold the world road title, world cyclo-cross title, and world mountain bike title.

Ferrand-Prévot placed 26th in the women’s road race on Sunday and will compete in the women’s cross-country on August 20th.
