Sarah Hughes

Sarah was appointed Sky News’ Royal Correspondent in May 2007.

Sarah’s royal reports include an interview with Prince Charles during his and Camilla's tour of South America and an assignment to follow Prince Harry on his first visit to the site of the World Trade Centre in New York.

For six months, Sarah led Sky’s coverage of the inquest into the death of Diana, Princess of Wales at the Royal Courts of Justice in London. She broke the long-awaited verdict live on Sky News and produced a half hour documentary charting the final hours of the Princess’ life.

In July 2008 Sarah travelled to the tiny African kingdom of Lesotho where she interviewed Prince Harry about his continued efforts to help the thousands of children orphaned by the country’s Aids epidemic. 

She followed the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh on their tour of the United States in 2007 and their visit to Uganda later that year, where they were joined by the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall for the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting.

She also covered Prince Harry’s deployment to Afghanistan and Prince William’s graduation from Sandhurst.

Previously, Sarah was a general news reporter. She played a major role in Sky’s award-winning coverage of the July 7th bombings in London, broadcasting live from the Sky helicopter high above the city and sending back the first images of the scene.

She also reported live from the red carpet at the 2007 Oscars where she interviewed all the big names of the night including best actress winner Helen Mirren.

Sarah can also be seen presenting news and programmes on Sky News.
