“He was thrilled to see her, and there was something he said that definitely made her pause for a moment,” says an eyewitness. “It would be amazing if he were to make her a princess.

She’s like a surrogate daughter for him. He clearly worships her.”

It’s clear the King’s initial plans for a more streamlined monarchy have somewhat backfired, with the Princess of Wales convalescing and his own ailments restricting him, and bringing in someone like Zara will have a big impact.

King Charles III has recently conferred a new royal title upon his niece, Zara Tindall, recognizing her steadfast dedication and service to the monarchy. Dubbed “The Forgotten Princess,” this title acknowledges Tindall’s understated presence within the royal family amidst various controversies and media attention focused on other members.

Zara Tindall has maintained a low-key persona, largely centered around her passion for equestrian sports, which has set her apart from more prominently featured relatives such as Prince William and Prince Harry. Her commitment to duty and humble demeanor have earned her respect within royal circles, making the title bestowed by King Charles a poignant recognition of her contributions.

The designation of “The Forgotten Princess” not only underscores Tindall’s loyalty and service but also serves as a strategic move by King Charles to emphasize values of humility and dedication during his reign. This acknowledgment comes at a time of heightened public interest in the dynamics of the royal family, especially given recent controversies involving other members.

As the monarchy navigates through these complexities, Tindall’s new title is expected to play a role in shaping public perception and internal dynamics within the family. It remains to be seen how this recognition will impact existing tensions, including reactions from other family members such as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, whose responses could further influence the unfolding narrative within the royal household.

There are several good reasons why King Charles lets his beloved niece Zara Tindall break the rules all the time. For one, he clearly adores her big protocol-destroying bear hugs, which were on full display during a tender reunion at the Royal Windsor Horse Show recently.

Charles, 75, has also been working behind the scenes putting together plans to rebuild his dwindling ranks and wants to promote the mother-of-three to her rightful title of princess. And onlookers are convinced this is the moment he told her!

“She can turn it down, but Charles is hoping she won’t. He adores her – she’s the daughter he never had – and he respects and admires her as much as his sister.”

But now they’ve had their “normal” upbringing, Charles is not giving up.

“He wants to do this because it’s wrong that Zara and her brother Peter aren’t princess and prince,” says an insider.

“They would have automatically been afforded those titles had Anne been a boy. It doesn’t matter that Anne turned down the Queen’s offer to fix this when they were younger. If they’ve changed the laws of succession to include females, then Zara should automatically be a princess.
