countess's

Belonging to her

Countess's is the possessive form of countess, a noblewoman ranking above a viscountess and below a marchioness—either holding the title in her own right or as the wife of an earl or count.

The countess's estate stretched across three counties.

We attended the countess's annual charity gala.
