Mike and Zara Tindall managed to bring a huge crowd out this afternoon as they took part in a golf event for charity to raise money for Parkinson’s.
Former rugby ace Mike, 45, and Princess Anne‘s daughter Zara, 42, donned their pink polo shirts as they invited guests including Zara’s brother Peter Phillips, Peter’s Ex-wife Autumn, and long-time family friend Dolly Maude along to the Belfry Golf Course.
As they posed with their putting clubs, Mike and Zara, who are known for packing on the PDA, looked like a picture-perfect couple.
Zara later beamed while hugging her brother, who has recently gone public with his NHS paediatric nurse girlfriend Harriet Sperling.
Mike jokingly captioned a picture of the couple together: ‘I finally convinced Zara to stop practising her putting and have a photo with me!’

Last year, Zara expressed her hope that her three children will learn to play golf so the family can enjoy games together.
Appearing as a guest on IMG Golf’s Opinion Matters podcast, the Princess Royal’s daughter said she would be thrilled if Mia, Lena, and Lucas, ‘all knew how to swing a club’, so the family could play together in the future.
‘Because, you know, that’s what you kind of live for isn’t it and making those moments together, being able to do them together is so much easier as well. We can all be interested in the same things, that’s incredible.’
Zara wasn’t so sure of her own talent and predicted her flock would be beating out their parents by miles.
Speaking to host Di Stewart, Zara said: ‘They’re all going to get better than us aren’t they? And I’ll be the mug at the back getting 15 shots, they’ll be waiting for me!’M
