Mia Tindall, aged nine, along with her siblings Lena, aged five, and Lucas, aged two, had a joyful outing to support their mother, Zara Tindall, in an equestrian event. The three royal siblings, accompanied by their father, former England rugby player Mike Tindall, aged 44, were seen on the sidelines at the Wellington International Horse Trials in Heckfield.
Zara Tindall, aged 42, is an accomplished equestrian athlete, having achieved various titles in international competitions, including an Olympic silver medal. On this occasion, she was participating in the dressage and jumping trials, which were part of the three-day county fair event that began on August 26.
While their mother competed, the children appeared more captivated by the bouncy castle and teacup rides available at the venue. Pictures captured Lena engaged in a seemingly playful disagreement with her older sister while arranging themselves on an inflatable structure. Lucas and his father were seen enjoying a ride on a carousel.
Earlier in the day, Mike and the children were seen showing their support for Zara as she competed. Lucas, positioned on his father’s shoulders, focused on the competition despite the crowds. The siblings were dressed comfortably for the warm weather, with Lucas in black shorts and a white T-shirt, and the older sisters wearing navy jumpers paired with shorts and trainers. Mike chose a pink long-sleeved sweatshirt and navy chino shorts for his attire.
Zara was elegantly attired in white trousers, a double-breasted fitted navy blazer with tails, and a high-collared shirt while competing on her grey gelding, Classicals Euro Star. Zara is recognized for her achievements in equestrian sports, including winning gold at the World Equestrian Games in 2006 and being named BBC’s Sports Personality of the Year the same year. She regularly participates in equestrian events and competes internationally.
Earlier in the month, Zara and Mike attended the Epsom Derby, where they faced protests from Animal Rising activists. Zara intervened, questioning whether the protestors understood the full context of their actions, while Mike encouraged them to visit professional yards to observe the animals’ treatment. The couple appeared stylish at the racecourse, with Zara wearing a white midi dress with black stripes and a coordinating hat, while Mike donned a traditional morning suit with grey trousers and a black tailcoat. The couple enjoyed the event, with Zara seen watching the races attentively and enjoying a glass of wine.
