The Lady Sarah Frances Elizabeth Chatto, née Armstrong-Jones (born 1 May 1964), is the only daughter of the 1st Earl of Snowdon and Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon, the second daughter of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. She is 16th in line of succession to the thrones of each of the Commonwealth Realms, and at the time of her birth was seventh. She is the only niece of Queen Elizabeth II and the youngest grandchild of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth.

She was born at Kensington Palace in London.

Lady Sarah attended the Camberwell School of Art and Middlesex Polytechnic (Middlesex University since 1992) and is currently a professional painter. She is also Vice President of the Royal Ballet, an appointment she accepted in 2004, following the example of her mother, who was a patron of the Royal Ballet.

She and her brother, Viscount Linley, have attracted far less media attention than their cousins, the Queen's children, and their mother interfered very little in their professional and personal lives, which some believe has led to their success in both areas[citation needed].

The Queen keeps in good contact with Lady Sarah and Lord Linley; they often accompany her on family holidays and they and their children are always invited to Royal events. They usually spend Christmas with the Royal Family at Sandringham.[citation needed] She has a half-sister, Lady Frances von Hofmannsthal (née Armstrong-Jones).
