Mia Tindall’s friendship with Princess Charlotte as she celebrates 11th birthday

Mia is the eldest daughter of Mike and Zara Tindall. Meanwhile, Charlotte is the middle child of Zara’s cousin Prince William and his wife Kate, Princess of Wales.

Mia and Charlotte have been pictured together many times at royal events over the years. But it was their appearances on Christmas Day for the last two years which has sparked discussion among fans about their closeness.

On December 25 in 2023, Mia and Charlotte were seen leaving church together before embarking on the royal family’s annual walkabout in Sandringham.

The pair were seen chatting and smiling as they left church and went on to greet people who had gathered on Christmas Day.

The same happened last year, when the two giggled and spoke after leaving church on Christmas Day. At one point, they even pulled the same expression looking like twins!

Mia Tindall’s close relationship with the Wales family

Fans picked up on the duo’s antics on social media. One person gushed on Instagram: “Love the bond between Princess Charlotte and Mia Tindall.”

Another wrote: “Love these two little future stars of the royal family.”

A third commented: “Cousins are your best friends forever.”

The kids are very close which is great for the kids that they’re always going to have cousins that they can grow up with.

Mia seems to share close bonds with all of the Wales children, including Charlotte’s siblings Prince George, also 11, and Prince Louis, six.

During Queen Elizabeth II’s platinum jubilee celebrations in 2022, Mia was seen jokingly warning mischievous Prince Louis about being naughty.

At the platinum jubilee concert, Mia also shared a tender moment with Kate, Princess of Wales, who was seen playing with the little girl’s hair.

Elsewhere, Mia was seen holding hands with Louis during the Christmas Day walkabout in 2023, alongside George. She also was quick to show off a gift to George from the crowd.
