Prince William's Cousin Zara Phillips Expecting First Child

Mike Tindall & Zara Phillipss

Another royal baby is on the way! While the world is eagerly waiting for Kate Middleton to give birth, Prince William’s cousin Zara Phillips has announced that she’s expecting a child of her own. This will be her first with rugby-playing husband Mike Tindall, whom she’s been married to for nearly two years.

“Mr. and Mrs. Mike Tindall are very pleased to announce that Zara Tindall is expecting a baby in the New Year,” a rep for Buckingham Palace revealed. “The Princess Royal and Captain Mark Phillips, Mr. Phillip and Mrs. Linda Tindall, and members of both families are delighted with the news.”

Zara’s baby will be Queen Elizabeth’s fourth great-grandchild — and should hopefully have a great playmate in Prince William and Duchess Kate’s upcoming bundle of joy!
