Zara and Mike Tindall face urgent calls to help ‘relieve Prince William and Princess Kate
Zara and Mike Tindall are facing urgent calls to help “relieve Prince William and Princess Kate”, according to inside sources.
King Charles, 75, and Queen Camilla, 77, held a summit at Balmoral Castle earlier this week to discuss the future of the Royal Family.
In 2020, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry both stepped back as senior royals which severely disrupted the set-in-stone plans for King Charles’s future vision of the monarchy.
Coupled with Prince Andrew’s departure and this year’s health crises that have rocked three senior members of the Royal Family, the King and Queen are likely holding crunch talks to secure the stability of the monarchy.
Sources have revealed that one of the main focuses of the summit was the next generation of royals, signalling a strategic shift in focus away from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
An insider told The Express: “The strategy now is to move away from focusing on what the Sussexes are doing and place an emphasis on the next generation of royals.”
This indicates a renewed effort to ensure the monarchy’s legacy is secured by the younger members of the Royal Family.
While much attention has been on Prince William, Princess Kate, and their children, the discussions at Balmoral also explored roles for other royal family members, including Zara and Mike Tindall’s children.
The royal couple share three children, Mia, 10, Lena, 6, and Lucas, 3.
Although not in direct line to the throne, their involvement could be significant for the monarchy’s image and presence, according to the insider.
They added: “The future of the Royal Family doesn’t just hinge on the Wales family, but also on other members of the Royal Family that hold a visible profile in this country and around the world.
“It’s all about building a brand and the family recognises that.
Prince William and Kate are incredibly close with the Tindalls, with both couples tying the knot in 2011 and having children around a similar time.
With Harry and Meghan’s children growing up in the US, Zara and Mike’s children have become important cousins in the lives of Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6.
The Prince of Wales showed his bond with the Tindalls when he invited both Zara, 43, and Mike, 45, to a Buckingham Palace Garden Party earlier this year.
The Princess of Wales, 42, stepped back from public duties earlier this year due to undergoing a course of preventative chemotherapy as she battles cancer.
