“I was uncomfortable”: Zara Tindall explains her strange demeanour at Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan’s wedding
Over tens of millions tuned in around the world to watch the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle on May 19, 2019.
However, there is one royal who said she felt “uncomfortable” while sitting on the sidelines watching her cousin wed.
Photos of Zara Tindall, the Queen’s eldest grandchild and Princess Anne’s daughter, painted her looking slightly uneasy during the special service at St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle last year.
Zara explained the obvious discomfort on her face while talking to The Daily Telegraph.
"I was uncomfortable! My bum sort of slid over either side [of the pew] and Lena kicked the hell out of me for an hour," she said of her youngest daughter who was born in June 2018.
"It just wasn't comfy at all, and it probably showed on my face."
Tindall said she found it particularly difficult to be at ease while during Bishop Michael Curry’s speech, which lasted a little over 13 minutes.
"It was just the general amount of time everything was taking," she said.
"I think my face was probably caught the point when I thought, 'Right he's going to finish now' and then he went off on another little story and it was like, "Really?'"
The royal and her husband welcomed their second daughter a month after the royal wedding, on June 18.
Their eldest daughter, Mia, is five and Lena is now 15 months old.
The couple sadly suffered two miscarriages before successfully welcoming their second daughter to the world.
Zara Phillips is an equestrian and has competed in the Olympics - going on to win silver in 2012. She and former footballer Mike Tindall married in 2011.
At birth, Zara was sixth in line to the British throne and is now 18th.
