Zara Tindall wishes for King Charles at important equestrian event

Every year, Zara Tindall, 41, a passionate show jumper herself and a member of the Cheltenham Committee, celebrates the four-day Cheltenham Festival in Gloucestershire, England. The popular horse race sees large sums of money wagered and is known for its ‘Cheltenham roar’, which refers to the tremendous noise of the crowd as the starter lifts the ribbon for the first race of the festival. Some horses from the stables of the late Queen Elizabeth, †96, who was also a regular visitor to the spectacle, also compete there.

The animals have now been taken over by King Charles, 74, who has not appeared at the Cheltenham racecourse for 17 years. The change of throne now prompts niece Zara to make a public request: “I think it’s for Steal A March [ein Pferd aus dem royalen Stall, Anm. d. Red.] It would be great to see Charles and Camilla back at Cheltenham,” she told British newspaper The Sun. “The runner’s involvement and presence would also be of great importance going forward. We’ll see what happens – times are changing,” hopes Tindall. The king’s participation has not yet been confirmed. The race starts on March 14.

Prince Harry is impersonated by a three-year-old

Prince Harry, 38, should not like this photo at all. On World Book Day, three-year-old Ellis Wright from Surrey was transformed into the dropout royal by his mother Melissa Wright, 36 – creating what other impressed parents have since called a “masterpiece”.

With children’s hairspray and face paint, the 36-year-old disguised her Ellis in Prince Harry, including the red-haired hair and a beard, which her son describes as his favorite part of the costume.

“I was a bit concerned because I think it’s a controversial subject because everyone has a pretty big opinion on it,” Melissa told British newspaper Express. Luckily, most of them thought the idea was “pretty harmless and funny,” and she hasn’t received any negative feedback so far. “Basically, it’s just funny,” says the single mom, stressing that it was a “witch” decision to please her little prince, who may not have read Harry’s memoir Spare but, in their opinion, have clear similarities with the author.

“Since he’s only three years old, I gave him a couple of suggestions; the typical Julia Donaldson characters or things that three-year-old kids like to read. Then he said, ‘No, I don’t want that,'” says Wright. “He’s quite aggressive, he definitely has an opinion, which kind of led me to Harry. As a family, we love the royal family very much. He loved the anniversary. My mum threw a huge party and he’s still talking about it to this day. He is also a bit obsessed with being a prince, so I thought it would be perfect.” The network sees it the same way and enthusiastically celebrates little Ellis aka Harry!

Prince and Princess of Wales attend christening of daughter Pippa Middleton

Finally another happy event for the British royal family. It is said that Pippa Middleton, 39, and husband James Matthews, 47, had their daughter christened. A family celebration, which of course Prince William, 40, and Catherine, Princess of Wales, 41, did not miss. Seven-month-old Rose, the third child of Kate’s little sister, was christened at the church in Berkshire this week, according to Daily Mail columnist Richard Eden.

Catherine, Princess of Wales, reveals sporting similarities with daughter Charlotte

Catherine, Princess of Wales, 41, appears to share an impressive skill with her daughter Princess Charlotte, 7. When visiting the “Aberavon Leisure and Fitness Center” in Port Talbot with Prince William, 40, she chatted with children from the “Tywyn Primary School”, who had gymnastics classes there.

“Can you do the splits?” one of the girls was heard asking, to which Kate revealed, “I could do it when I was little but now I need to keep practicing.” When little Grace Evans demonstrated a split, the 41-year-old revealed: “My little girl likes to do it.” So it seems like Charlotte inherited her mother’s athleticism.

Sarah Ferguson deletes all Instagram posts

Sarah Ferguson, 63, caused confusion among her fans on Monday February 27. Prince Andrew’s ex-wife, 63, suddenly deleted all posts on her Instagram profile. Instead, there are now three new postings that show a tea party. A close-up shows a hand pouring a cup of tea, the second picture shows a lovingly set table with pink serviettes, etageres with croissants and strawberry tarts. “To the turning of a page…” and “And to a new beginning…”, she initially writes mysteriously. Your followers are irritated. “Why did you delete all your posts? Why the mysterious new posts,” asks a confused user. Another suggested: “She is focused on the release of the new book. One only has to read the posts below and it shows exactly what is intended here.” And he seems right.

Because a little later, the 63-year-old shares a video from the tea party, in which only hands can be seen and voices can be heard in the background. “Lady Mary, what on earth have you been up to? My brand new historical romance novel, A Most Intriguing Lady, is out next week!” she announces her second historical novel. “‘Her Heart for a Compass” taught us to follow our heart. “A Most Intriguing Lady” is about new beginnings, secrets and of course… a romance.” The Duchess of York’s new book will be published on March 7. As part of her promotional tour, Sarah Ferguson wants, among other things, an interview in New York, where she also wants to answer a few questions about Prince Harry, 38, and Duchess Meghan, 41.

Catherine, Princess of Wales: Detail in new photos causes irritation

Catherine, Princess of Wales, 41, as patron of English rugby union not only clinched a win over her husband Prince William, patron of the Welsh FA, in the Six Nations game at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium over the weekend, but after the release of some Photos from their players’ dressing rooms also get plenty of attention on their official Instagram channel. But that was not only because of her radiant smile and her charming look, but above all because of a detail that caught the eye when taking pictures with the star player Maro Itoje, 28. The second snap in a series of photos, which also features the Prince of Wales chatting to Welsh players, shows one of England’s rugby pros at work as a photographer. Kate and Itoje beam towards the lens while sitting on a bench. But wait a minute: The clearly recognizable camera immediately triggers amused discussion in the comment line.

“Is that a disposable camera in picture 2?!” asks a Royal fan in astonishment. “I spotted it too!” agrees another excitedly, noting almost sentimentally, “Brings back some memories.” Another follower offers a theory for the use of the relic from the old days: “For security reasons, cell phones are probably not allowed in private meetings.” Sounds reasonable! Incidentally, the proud Maro now shows what has become of the retro-style snapshots on his social media profile. He jokes with amusement about the overexposed commemorative documents: “The old camera flash is working again.” And suddenly Catherine is beaming even more than usual.

King Charles and Queen Camilla: They break with this golden tradition at the coronation

The coronation of King Charles, 74, is losing its shine: According to the “Sunday Telegraph”, the monarch and his wife Queen Camilla, 75, will not drive up to their coronation on May 6, 2023 in Westminster Abbey in the golden carriage, as was the case with such a historic event has been a tradition in the British royal family up to now. Accordingly, the couple will only use the state vehicle on the return trip to be cheered on by Royal fans in the streets of London. The approximately 7 meter long golden carriage was commissioned by King George III in 1760. (1738-1820) and has been used at the coronation of all monarchs since King George IV (1762-1830) in 1821. Queen Elizabeth, † 96, once revealed in the BBC documentary “The Coronation” on the occasion of her 65th coronation anniversary in 2017 that the ride in the golden carriage was “terrible”. She practically only sat on springs that were covered with leather. “I couldn’t move at all.”

An argument that should have convinced Charles to at least make the journey to the already exciting ceremony a little more comfortable. But traditionalists need not fear that the monarch will switch to an ordinary vehicle. A car doesn’t seem to be an option. Royal experts assume that the king will always take royal custom into account in memory of his father Prince Philip, †99, who was a passionate carriage lover. The newly crowned royal couple have various alternatives that should also make an impression. For example, you might choose the Irish State Coach, which has often been used to drive to the opening of Parliament.
