Zara Tindall Discusses Challenges in the Royal Family and How They Manage

The eldest granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth shared that the Royal Family is just like everybody else, navigating struggles and family issues together.

Zara Tindall, daughter of Princess Anne and the eldest granddaughter of the late Queen Elizabeth II, recently attended the London Sporting Club lunch. There, she addressed the crowd and spoke candidly about family matters.

At one point, the 43-year-old royal admitted that the Royal Family is just like any ordinary family. "It is very hard to see from the outside but, one hundred percent, it is a family that is still going through the same struggles other people do," she said.

Tindall added that, despite the issues they face, the family is "still very supportive of each other." Their united bond, she said, is inspired by her late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, who died in 2022.

"We have a very incredible person to look up to who is sadly not here anymore," she said, remembering her beloved grandmother. "She was amazing and an inspiration to all of us."

Zara Tindall is married to Mike Tindall, with whom she shares three children: Mia Grace, Lena Elizabeth, and Lucas Philip. Despite being royalty, Zara and her brother, Peter, do not have royal titles—a decision made by their mother, Princess Anne, and father, Captain Mark Phillips.
