Mia, Lena, and Lucas Tindall are members of the extended Royal Family, being grandchildren of Princess Anne and great-grandchildren of Queen Elizabeth II. Their parents, Zara and Mike Tindall, have chosen for them to grow up without royal titles, prioritizing a more private life.
Mia, the eldest, first captured public attention in 2016 through a charming official portrait celebrating Queen Elizabeth II's 90th birthday, where she was photographed holding the Queen's handbag. Lena, the second daughter, carries the middle name Elizabeth in honor of her great-grandmother. Lucas, the youngest and only son, has the middle name Philip, a tribute to his great-grandfather, Prince Philip. He made his first public appearance during the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations in 2022.
Across the Atlantic, Prince Archie, aged five, and Princess Lilibet, aged three, reside in California with their parents, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Since the couple's decision to step back from royal duties in 2020, visits to the UK have been infrequent. King Charles has reportedly had limited interactions with his grandchildren, meeting Archie only a few times and Lilibet just once during the Platinum Jubilee in 2022. The relationship has been further complicated by ongoing tensions between the Sussexes and the Royal Family, as well as Harry's legal disputes regarding security arrangements.

I wish they’d all just disappear from the headlines, to be honest.

I'm not interested in the day-to-day dramas of a family detached from reality.

It's a shame there's so much tension within the family. It must be hard for everyone involved.
