Dressed head to toe in the latest outdoor gear, Princess Anne’s daughter, Zara Tindall, looked at home modeling items from sportswear brand Musto. The latest shoot was another successful media moment for the royal and the British clothing company thanks to an accompanying interview talking about mother Princess Anne, which resulted in extensive coverage in Grande’s most widely read newspapers. -Brittany.
The campaign is part of an ongoing ambassadorship for former Olympic equestrian Zara, who is believed to be worth £500,000 (US$570,000), and is part of some of the many big-money deals struck by the granddaughter of the late Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, Mike Tindall. .
A week earlier it was revealed that Mike, who played for the England rugby team between 2001 and 2011, had accepted an offer from the ITV reality show. I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here – a primetime series famous for subjecting its celebrities to grueling ordeals involving horrors such as being buried alive or having buckets of bugs or offal thrown over your head.
It’s a gig that can cost upwards of £500,000 for big enough names, especially if the talent taking part is able to secure network bosses the right titles (which, in turn, result in higher ratings). high). In my years covering entertainment news, I remember how detailed the contracts were between contestants and production companies for shows like this, often specifically listing the telltale stories they would be in. able to deliver. I hear sources say it has been a similar scenario for Mike, who reportedly agreed to not be secretive about life inside the royal fold. It makes sense – it’s what many viewers will be looking for.

Cashing in on royal status is usually a trigger for dedicated royalists and media, many of whom have spent the past two years complaining about the various business antics of a certain royal couple in California, so I find it odd that this recent news on The various Tindalls royal cashes come and go without so much as a sound from the most sensitive columnists.
In fact, it’s quite the opposite. A recent tabloid article went as far as to celebrate Tindall’s influencer status, totaling more than £1m ($1.2m) in brand deals, which include oil company CBD and a controversial COVID-19 test results app. “These are two of the most requested members of the royal family,” the article applauded. “…a master at signing lucrative contracts.”
And, look, I personally find nothing wrong with Zara and Mike securing every bag offered. With their athletic backgrounds, sponsorships, albeit lesser in amount, would have always been available to them over the course of their careers. Zara won BBC Sports Personality of the Year in 2006 and a silver medal at the 2012 Olympics, while Mike won the 2003 World Cup. But there’s no denying that the big bucks don’t come only because of their positions as members of the royal family. A closer look at each signed partnership will show that the press releases for the most part made at least one royal reference and, if there isn’t, it always comes up in the accompanying interviews. (It was no different when Princess Anne’s other child, Peter Philips, promoted Bright Dairies milk in China for a 2020 campaign against palace visuals. He may be a businessman accomplished, but only a fool would believe that the company chose him as a spokesperson because of his successes on the board of directors).

Although neither Zara nor Mike have any titles, HRH status or working roles, their closeness to The Firm and the late Queen Elizabeth II was enough to make many brands and wealthy personalities salivate. Both have enjoyed success in sports, but the couple real USP is royalty.
Two years ago, it was revealed that a Hong Kong businessman paid Zara £100,000 ($115,000) for horse racing advice, and the same individual also donated £300,000 ($340,000) to Sarah, Duchess of York for “marketing and promotion.” and then attended Princess Eugenie’s wedding. You start to wonder if these exchanges are only about brands or about individuals trying to position themselves closer to the royal family. A golden ticket, if you will.
The rules around sponsorships for non-working royals are both confusing and selective. For the Sussexes, who no longer hold jobs or use their HRH credentials, every penny received or contract signed has come under scrutiny from the British media. Even when the couple used their own money to become investors in a fintech asset manager, it didn’t take long for criticism to pour in on who else might have been on the board or the companies with which the company had links.
It goes back to that selective outrage that is all too familiar to anyone following the royal beat bubble. A hypocritical world in which royal protocol is rarely a real thing and usually a fictional vehicle used by the tabloids to pin negative stories on whoever they need hate clicks at the time. (Even at the Queen’s state funeral, the Sussexes were publicly lambasted for holding hands, but the Tindalls, who did exactly the same, were hailed as respectful).

I’m just curious how the protocol police are going to find a way to find him still respectable when the late queen’s grandson spends three weeks on a sordid reality TV series. If the wrong colored nail polish may have seen the resurgence of the Salem Witch Trials, eating raw kangaroo anus to entertain viewers for a check should surely lead to a total media meltdown. Right?
