Zara Phillips, Princess Anne's daughter, was named by her uncle Prince Charles and has also always been close to her cousins William and Harry — she is just a year older than William and three years older than Harry. William was even filmed chasing her around the Archbishop of Canterbury's legs at Harry's christening in 1984. Zara's godfather is Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall's ex-husband, Andrew, who is a former boyfriend of her mother, Princess Anne. Zara herself is godmother to Prince George.
Zara took after her mother and became a champion eventer, winning the BBC Sports Personality of the Year in 2005. She supports numerous charities focusing mainly on spinal injuries, equestrian organizations, and children's causes and also designs a range of equestrian clothing named ZP176 — the team number she was given when she first represented her country.
Zara was introduced to rugby player Mike Tindall by her cousin Prince Harry in an Australian bar in 2003, and they married eight years later. Zara is mom to 3-year-old daughter Mia and suffered a miscarriage in 2016. Zara is 16th in line to the throne.
