Ryan - who is engaged to Sam's sister Louise - donned an eye-catching purple t-shirt and ripped jeans, as he strolled down the street beside her.
She opened up about a sexual assault where she was 'almost raped' while walking home in broad daylight, only escaping when a group of adults saw the attack and came to help.
Zara, who has also worked with the charity Refuge, said after chatting to the duchess: 'I felt it was important to share my story to help others who may have been in the same situation.
'A couple of years ago the term revenge porn wasn't known at all, but now an increasing number of people are aware of it and the absolute destruction it can bring.

'The landscape is changing and the increase of technology, whether it's camera phones, social media or access to apps, is actually quite concerning when in the wrong hands.
'What I have tried to convey with my work with Refuge is that we all need to be aware of what we are sharing, how we are sharing it and who we are sharing it with.'
