Zara and Mike Tindall's real reason for missing King's birthday parade

Zara Tindall and her husband Mike Tindall were not pictured at the Trooping the Colour parade, which marked King Charles' official birthday

Despite Princess Kate making her first appearance of the year at the Trooping The Colour, a celebration for the King's birthday parade, Gloucestershire's own Zara and Mike Tindall were conspicuously absent. However, it seems they had a good reason.

The 2024 Trooping The Colour took place at 11am on Saturday, June 15, coinciding with P!nk's performance at the Tottenham Hotspurs stadium in London. So What? We hear you muse.

If you're scratching your head, asking 'just give me a reason' why Zara and Mike opted out of getting the party started with King Charles, it's because they were busy toasting to the American singer during her sold-out UK tour.

Who Knew?!

Hello! reports that Zara Tindall and former Gloucester Rugby pro, Mike Tindall, enjoyed a special date night at the concert over the weekend, explaining their absence from Royal family photos, reports Gloucestershire Live.

Mike posted pictures on his Instagram account of the crowds eagerly awaiting the singer's arrival, revealing they were having a great time in the exclusive The Green Room. While it doesn't appear that they brought along their three children, Mia, 10, Lena, five and three year old Lucas, the glamorous couple also attended a special screening of tennis star Roger Federer's documentary at Leicester Square two days prior.
