Princess Anne refused to give her daughter a royal title — here’s why she’s relieved
Zara Tindall may be a member of the royal family, but she never wants to be known as a princess.The 42-year-old daughter of Princess Anne got candid on a recent episode of Rob Burrow’s Total Sport podcast, saying she’s fortunate that her mom didn’t give her a royal title.Burrow, who is a former rugby player battling motor neuron disease, asked the equestrian if she had advice for her younger self.Zara went on to discuss her relief with Anne, 73, not letting herself and her older brother, Peter Phillips, 46, become full-time working members of the Firm.“From my point of view, I was obviously very lucky that my mother didn’t give us any titles so I really commend her on that,” Zara explained.The granddaughter of the late Queen Elizabeth went on: “We were very lucky that we got to do it a bit our own way.”“My family has a great work ethic as well which I’m hoping they instilled in me and is still going to this day,” she noted.Zara married ex-rugby sportsman Mike Tindall in 2011 and they share three children: Mia, 9, Lena, 5, and Lucas, 2.“Hopefully, we can pass it onto our kids,” Zara added.
