Zara Tindall stuns in patterned yellow ensemble at Royal Ascot

 Zara Tindall looked stunning in a patterned yellow ensemble as she was joined by her husband Mike at Royal Ascot today. 

The daughter of Princess Anne, 43, put her best fashion foot forward in a stylish buttermilk-coloured button-up dress that featured a pointy collar and puffy blouse sleeves. 

The chic garment had a belt that cinched in Zara’s waist, showing off her sophisticated and slender frame. 

Zara, known to share her mother’s love of equestrian sports, was all smiles as she made her way around the Royal Enclosure – which is invitation only – at the racecourse in Berkshire today.  

The mother-of-three looked every inch a royal in a rattan-style hat, which she perched on the edge of her head and wore her glossy blonde tresses in an elegant low bun. 

She stepped out in Berkshire wearing pointed cream heels and held a pair of sunglasses and the Sauvereign Aphrodite 220 bag in White Box Calf.

Her husband Mike Tindall looked dapper, attending the races in a sleek black top hat and a three-piece suit featuring a white crisp shirt, floral embroidered tie, grey waistcoat and a smart blazer.

The pair looked in high spirits and smiled as they took selfies with other revellers at the racecourse today. 

They even shared an awkward moment with Queen Camilla, as her wide-brimmed headpiece got in the way of the couple trying to greet her with a kiss. 

King Charles, 75, and Camilla are proven fans of racing and arrived at the Berkshire racecourse in the traditional carriage possession ahead of the first race, alongside Princess Anne, Peter Phillips and Lady Gabriella Windsor.

The late Queen was a passionate owner and breeder of thoroughbreds, and had more than 20 Royal Ascot winners during her 70-year reign.

Writing jointly in the official programme, Charles and Camilla said: ‘It gave us immense pleasure and joy to witness Desert Hero’s victory in the King George V Stakes last year, particularly as he was bred by Her late Majesty.

‘We wish all the participants this week the very best of luck in seeking that unique thrill of a Royal Ascot winner.

‘We also hope that those here at the racecourse and watching from home will enjoy five days of the finest racing that this sport has to offer.’

Zara also shared a heartfelt hug with Lady Gabriella Kingston, the daughter of Prince and Princess Michael of Kent.

It has been a tough couple of months for Gabriella, as her husband Thomas Kingston died by suicide on February 25 at the age of 45 at his parents’ home in the Cotswolds. 

The royal family have proved a strong beacon of support for the 43-year-old in recent months.

The King and Queen were joined in their carriage by Charles Wellesley, the 9th Duke of Wellington who carried Queen Mary’s Crown at the coronation before Camilla was crowned, and his wife the duchess. 

They were followed by the Princess Royal who travelled with her son Peter Phillips, Lady Gabriella Kingston, the daughter of Prince and Princess Michael of Kent, and Charles and Camilla’s racing manager John Warren.

In the third coach was Camilla’s sister Annabel Elliot, her son Sir Ben Elliot, former co-chair of the Conservative Party knighted in Boris Johnson’s resignation honours list who is married to the daughter of musician Steve Winwood, and the Earl and Countess of Halifax.

In the final coach was Sir Johnny Weatherby, the racehorse owner and breeder and formerly the late Queen’s representative at Ascot from 2011 to 2020, and racehorse trainer Ralph Beckett and his wife
