Zara Tindall and husband Mike have been spotted partying with Prince Harry’s best pal during an annual trip.
King Charles’ niece, Zara, who is also a cousin of Harry, is currently in Australia with husband Mike Tindall for the Magic Millions horse-racing event on the Gold Coast. Mike and Zara are ambassadors of the event and head Down Under for it at the start of each year. And during one of the glamorous parties for the Magic Millions event, Zara and Mike, who are known to be close to the Prince and Princess of Wales, were seen living it up with Harry’s polo-playing pal, Nacho Figueras and his wife Delfina Blaquier.
Nacho is known to be extremely close to Harry and has even described him as his brother in the past, while Delfina is also a pal of Meghan Markle’s and is set to appear in her upcoming Netflix series With Love, Meghan. The two couples were spotted sharing a joke and posing for pictures and later Zara took to the polo field alongside Nacho and Delfina for a match. Of course, Zara is a world champion equestrian and also won a silver medal at the London 2012 Olympics as part of the three-day eventing team.
And during her trip to the Gold Coast, she was probed about whether she would like to appear at another games, especially as nearby Brisbane will be hosting in 2032. And Zara admitted: “I’d love to run another Olympics. But I’m very lucky even if I don’t – I got to ride at my home Olympics.”
In an interview, Zara also talked about her love of horse racing, which has been passed down by her mother Princess Anne, from Zara’s grandmother the late Queen, who would watch racing with her and Mike on TV.
Zara added: “Racing was a big part of her life and she absolutely loved the breeding side of it as well,” she said of the late Queen. She had a big book of names that she had registered and when a foal was born, she’d go through all the names and pick one out, which gave her hours of delight.
