Zara Tindall stated she has not been treated as royalty since birth. They “sidelined” her because she is Princess Anne’s “illegitimate daughter”
The Princess Royal has been visited by daughter Zara Tindall and her second husband Sir Timothy Laurence.
However, one person who most likely won’t be visiting is a family member of Princess Anne‘s who is rarely mentioned…
In fact, she is so rarely seen, some even dub her as a “secret”.
The hard-working royal is wed to ex-Royal Navy officer Sir Timothy Laurence.
They got married in 1992.
However, before this, Anne was married to Captain Mark Phillips, a gold-medal-winning Olympic equestrian.
The couple share two children – Peter Phillips and Zara Tindall.
The pair separated in 1989, but Anne had no intentions to divorce Mark. Although, this all changed in 1991. At this time it was revealed that Mark has fathered a child with an art teacher from New Zealand.
Mark briefly met Heather Tonkin in 1984 and, in 1985, their daughter, Felicity, was born. According to the Scottish Daily Express, when it was revealed that Mark had fathered a child with someone other than Princess Anne it caused one of the biggest royal scandals ever.
Princess Anne’s rarely-seen step-daughter
Reports claim that Mark met Heather at a riding clinic and, a year later, the pair reconnected and their affair occurred. Reports also claim that Phillips suggested an abortion to Heather, but then proceeded to make monthly payments for Felicity’s upkeep.
In 1991, Felicity’s mother went public with DNA tests which affirmed that Felicity is biologically Mark’s child.
Despite the confirmation, recent speculation on the matter has claimed that Felicity does not have a relationship with her half-siblings, Zara and Peter. In fact, it’s claimed that they’ve never even met their half-sister.
However, Princess Anne’s children do have a relationship with Stephanie Phillips, another half-sister.
Mark shares his third daughter, Stephanie, with his second wife, Sandy Pflueger.
Stephanie’s relationship with the royals appears cordial. She even had Peter and Zara’s children as flower girls at her wedding and invited Princess Anne to the occasion.
Princess Anne hospitalised
The Princess Royal was hospitalised on Monday (June 24) after reportedly being injured by a horse. Thankfully, her injuries were described as minor by Buckingham Palace, however, Anne did suffer a concussion.
Yesterday, her husband Sir Timothy Laurence updated reporters with a statement. He said: “She is recovering well, thank you. She’s doing fine. Slow, but sure.
Princess Anne’s daughter Zara Tindall and Sir Timothy Laurence recently paid a visit to the Princess Royal, showing their support during a challenging time. However, there is one family member who remains elusive and rarely mentioned – her step-daughter from Mark Phillips’ previous relationship.The royal scandal unfolded in 1991 when it was revealed that Mark had fathered a child, Felicity, with an art teacher from New Zealand named Heather Tonkin. This revelation shook the royal family and caused a rift between Princess Anne and Mark. Despite the DNA tests confirming Felicity’s paternity, it is believed that she does not have a relationship with her half-siblings, Zara and Peter.On the other hand, Princess Anne’s children have maintained a cordial relationship with Stephanie Phillips, Mark’s daughter from his second marriage to Sandy Pflueger. Stephanie even had Peter and Zara’s children as flower girls at her wedding, showing a sense of unity within the extended family.As Princess Anne recovers from a horse-related injury that led to a concussion, her husband Sir Timothy Laurence assured the public that she is doing well and on the path to recovery. The support from her family, including her rarely-seen step-daughter, is crucial during this time of healing. Let’s continue to follow updates on Princess Anne’s recovery and send positive thoughts her way.
