Zara, the daughter of Princess Anne and wife of Rugby World Cup winner Mike Tindall, was not given a royal title at birth after her mother declined Queen Elizabeth II’s offer.
Princess Anne preferred that Zara and her brother Peter grow up without the burden of royal titles.
However, rumors suggest that the 430year-old may now receive a title due to her significant support for the King following his cancer diagnosis earlier this year. She was recently seen warmly embracing King Charles at the Windsor Horse Show.
According to Charlotte Griffiths of The Mail on Sunday, future King William and Zara share a “really deep bond,” which could lead to her having a substantial role in his future monarchy.
Reflecting on not being given a title at birth, Zara once said, “We were very lucky that we got to do it a bit our own way.”

Wealthiest Rugby Couples:
Here's a look at the top rugby couples whose bonds—and bank accounts—have made them iconic.
Johnny & Laura Sexton – The Dublin Dream Team (£6m)
From teenage sweethearts to one of rugby's wealthiest pairs, Johnny and Laura Sexton have captured fans' hearts as much as Johnny's kicks have clinched games. Their love story began at Rathgar Tennis Club, blossoming all the way to marriage in 2013.

Siya and Rachel Kolisi's £10 million empire wasn't just built on rugby; it's infused with purpose. The Kolisis are widely admired for their philanthropic work, especially through the Kolisi Foundation, which uplifts underprivileged communities.
Although the couple recently parted ways, Rachel remains a key influence in Siya's life. Now back with the Sharks after a stint in France, Siya continues to value her steadfast support. Despite the split, their legacy as South Africa's "golden couple" lives on.
