The Princess of Wales is absent from official duties as she continues to receive cancer treatment after her diagnosis was announced at 3.22 am.That's why when Prince William hosted a garden party at Buckingham Palace yesterday, 6 out of 4 of his royal cousins stepped up to support him in a show of solidarity. 

Princess Anne's 2 children Peter Phillips and Zara Tindall and the Sisters of York, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie — daughters of the Duke and Duchess of York, Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson William braved the rain and greeted 8,000 guests on the palace lawn.I got an umbrella in my hand. Zara's husband, Mike Tindall, the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester also attended.

The monarchy never felt slimmer — after all, a slimmed-down monarchy was clearly always King Charles's wish, but it could never be expected to make everything that has happened in the past 5 years even slimmer.The most important of them is the fear of health in 2024, which for some time missed Kate and the king himself. As such, many speculate that Beatrice and Eugenie may take on the role of royalty, which they particularly work for, but have not done so far. The appearance of yesterday's cousin's surprise garden party does signal or hint that the possibility is becoming a reality "Well, maybe not so fast on that."

According to Hi, William has no plans to go out at the garden party even after the Royal service, according to yesterday's outlet, "This is the current plan."

According to the publication's royal editor, Emily Nash, "Princess Beatrice and Eugenie and their cousins were at a garden party to support the Prince of Wales, but they have not taken on an official role, as the princess continues her recovery," she said. "They have attended royal engagements in the past, sometimes "attending" with the late Queen, for example, they may appear at other events during the summer as members of the king's family"

both Beatrice and Eugenie have carved out their careers; both are college—educated, and Eugenie is an artist in London. Hauser &

Tindalls both have successful careers in the sport - Mike is a former rugby star and Zara was an Olympian who followed in the footsteps of her mother Princess Royal and competed in equestrian events at the 2012 London Olympics. Zara's brother, Peter Phillips, is the head of the partner acquisition of CSM Sport & Entertainment, a sports and entertainment rights organization, and previously worked for SEL U.S.A., a sports and entertainment agency.K.He was the managing director of the company. Zara spoke before about the benefits of not being given a royal title since she and Peter were born, a decision made by their mother, Anne:"From my point of view, it was obviously very lucky that my mother did not give us any title, so I really applaud her on it," she said of Rob Barrow. I said on the "Seven" podcast this past 12 months.She also knew that she was working for her, she was working for her, she knew that she was working for her. "We were very lucky that we had to do it a little bit in our own way," he said."

Zara and Mike"are understood to be key gears of the royal machinery and bring the qualities of good humor, enthusiasm, and aggressiveness," Tatler writes. "Tindalls are very much the glue of their generation of royalty and bring fun to family gatherings, no matter how serious the occasion," said a source speaking to the Times. "They can help remove the family's mind from the gravity of what is happening."Some people in the family can be very "royal", but Mike is himself, relaxed and playful with George, Charlotte and Louis. It is important to note that they all agree that they can personally flirt together and bring a sense of normality to what is a stressful situation for everyone involved.

On his side, Peter, the eldest son of Queen Elizabeth's 8 grandchildren, is said to have been "like a brother" to William, according to the Telegraph.

William's remaining 2 cousins, Lady Louise Windsor and James, and the children of Earl of Wessex — Prince Edward and Sophie, Duchess Of Edinburgh — were not present at the garden party yesterday, but they may still be a little too young to participate in such a mission. Louise is a student at the University of St. Andrews (William and Kate met in 2001 and later graduated in 2005), she is studying English, and James is only 16 years old.

The mood was high at yesterday's garden party, but the weather was bad, with "some guests drenched and others evacuated to tea tents," the Daily Mail reports. As torrential rain raged, the future king chatted to senior executives from Swim England — an organization he supports as a backer — and joked that it was "good weather for swimming."”
