It is a delicate moment for the British royal family, due to the scandal that has engulfed Kate Middleton and King Charles III's cancer, which, even if it has been declared curable, casts a significant shadow on the future of the monarchy.
Those who can, thus, must necessarily do their part and demonstrate that despite everything the Institution is there. These days the testing ground is offered by the Cheltenham Festival, a four-day event on horseback where the royals are never lacking, also because they often have their own horses involved in the various competitions. The first to show up, on Monday 13 March, were Zara Tindall, daughter of Princess Anne, and her cousin Eugenie of Yorkdaughter of Prince Andrew, accompanied by their husbands, Mike Tindall and Jack Brooksbank. Not a particular sacrifice for Zara, a passionate horsewoman, perhaps a little more for Eugenie, who lives between London and Portugal due to her husband's work. Close-knit, smiling, the cousins did not go unnoticed, making scandals and mysteries forgotten for a while.
On the second day of competition, however, Zara and Mike arrived together Beatrice of York and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi. A decidedly less worldly couple than the others in Casa Windsor, but this is not the time to think about privacy, because The Firm it needs everyone's energy to stay afloat.
Posed photos, even kisses (between Zara and Mike, who don't have the shyness of other royals in public) to ease the tensions of the last few days. On March 14th, to lend support to the young people of the house, Queen Camilla also arrived, in better shape than ever after the regenerating week off from work that she allowed herself to recover from too many public commitments.
Her Majesty is a great horse enthusiast, and certainly couldn't miss the opportunity to enjoy the Festival show live. In excellent form, Camilla was the guest of honor on the second day together with Princess Anna. With them, also the ex-husband of the sovereign, Andrew Parker-Bowles (not too surprising, he was also at the coronation) and the children of the former couple, Tom and Laura, together with one of the latter's sons, Ben Elliot.
A nice group, in short, trying to make up for the absence of excellent names. The attempt may certainly distract the attention of the tabloids for a while, but certainly not for too long. The presence of – if it can be defined as such – will also contribute to the operation William at the Lady Diana Awards, on the evening of March 14, with her brother Harry connecting from California. Another event useful for distracting the press, but sooner or later subjects and will not demand greater clarity on more than one point, starting with Middleton's conditions.
