Zara Tindall delivered a cheeky comment to Prince Harry as they were attending the wedding of their cousin Princess Eugenie together, it has been claimed.
A lip reader believes to have captured what Zara was spotted saying to the Duke of Sussex on October 12, 2018.
The wedding of Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank took place at St George’s Chapel in Windsor – the same church where five months prior Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had also tied the knot.
Many royal fans and commentators made comparisons between the two nuptials – both attended by several A-listers and hundreds of guests.
The daughter of Princess Anne appears to have also partaken in weighing up the two different weddings while attending Eugenie and Jack’s big day, if the lip reader is correct in her analysis.
While sitting inside St George’s Chapel, Zara turned towards the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and, according to a lip reader who spoke to the Mirror Online, she pointedly said: “It’s very quiet compared to the screaming at your wedding.”
Meghan, who was sitting between the Princess Royal and Harry during the ceremony, was spotted leaning in, likely to hear the conversation better.
In response to Zara’s remark, the Duke of Sussex seemingly asked his cousin: “Mine?”
It is unlikely the only daughter of Princess Anne would be referring to the guests inside the church with her alleged comment.
Rather, she may have recalled the many people who had gathered outside St George’s Chapel and along the streets of Windsor to catch a glimpse of Meghan and Harry as newlyweds.
Many members of the public also travelled to Berkshire to witness and celebrate in person the second royal wedding of 2018, although Princess Eugenie’s less prominent role within the Firm meant she had attracted a smaller crowd.
Zara, a skilled equestrian who won a silver medal during the 2012 London Olympics, Princess Eugenie and Prince Harry are three of the eight grandchildren of late Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip.
The royal cousins are known to have grown up as a tight-knit group, and to have remained close until recent years.
Following Prince Harry and Meghan’s decision to relocate to the US and step down as working royals, Eugenie is the only cousin known to have maintained a very close bond with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
