The King’s niece, 42, and her husband Mike, 45, looked relaxed at a drinks reception in Gloucestershire, as Zara enjoyed some time away from the competition on Friday.

Zara wore an oversized denim shirt and tight-fitting trousers, which she paired with classic white trainers and sunglasses.

The mother-of-three tied her hair back for the warm day, which saw temperatures remain at around 20C.

Zara and Mike Tindall embraced the warm British weather in stylish, casual outfits as they attended the Badminton Horse Trials yesterday afternoon

The Badminton Horse Trials take place over five days, and Zara has already been spotted competing in a number of events in the park of Badminton House, the seat of the Duke of Beaufort in south Gloucestershire.

On Thursday, the mother-of-three put on an affectionate display today as she was supported by her husband Mike and her father Captain Mark Phillips at the equestrian event.

Competing on day two of the annual five-day event, the King’s niece appeared to take comfort from former England rugby star Mike as they repeatedly hugged one another.

The Princess Royal’s daughter also seemed delighted to have her father Mark by her side, with the two chatting to each other and sharing a smile while at the Badminton Estate.

Dressed in her typical navy riding attire, Zara, who shares daughters Mia, ten, and Lena, five, and son, Lucas, three, with Mike, looked focused as she warmed up ahead of the competition, which started yesterday and runs until Sunday.

Wearing white jodhpurs covered by her long, double-breasted coat, the royal finished off her look with a matching navy and white hat as she put her beloved gelding Class Affair through his paces at the event.

After her turn in the competition, Zara was pictured sharing a cuddle with her proud husband Mike, while he appeared to lean in for a kiss from his wife.

The royal was also spotted chatting to her father Mark, who divorced Princess Anne in 1992 after 19 years of marriage.

Joining Mark in the crowd was his girlfriend Belgian equestrian Florence Standaert, believed to be in her 40s.

Florence’s long-term boyfriend, Thomas Ryckewaert, ran the Waregem horse trials in Belgium until his death at the age of 63 in 2019.

And a year later, Mark designed a cross country-course at Waregem, run by Florence, reported The Daily Mail in 2022.

Meanwhile, looking effortlessly elegant, Zara teamed her navy attire with a pair of knee-high black riding boots for today’s event.

After showing off her horse riding skills, the late Queen’s granddaughter cooled down with a walk in the nearby lake while barefoot. She swapped her smart competition attire from the earlier in the day for a pair of denim shorts, a navy jacket and a white cap.
