Zara matched the moment with a curtsy and cheek kiss for Queen Camilla, while Mike, 48, put an arm around King Charles for a one-armed hug. The three chatted and shared laughter, with the King giving Mike a playful push on the arm.
Zara, 45, also spoke with new sister-in-law Harriet Sperling, 45, who made her married debut after marrying Peter Phillips on June 6 and wore a "Mrs. Peter Phillips" name badge and Pragnell jewelry. The appearance comes amid a busy royal calendar that included Peter’s wedding, Trooping the Colour and Garter Day; Peter and Zara remain non-working royals, a choice their mother made at their births that Zara has called "very lucky." Mike has praised the Royal Procession as a special experience, noting children waving flags and the anthem as it passes schools.
