A video of Zara and William has been shared on X today, showing the moment they arrived at the races.

In the clip, Zara, 43, is seen hugging the Prince of Wales as she gave him a kiss on each cheek. In a sweet moment, she’s then seen rubbing his back and talking to him.

I love that Zara won’t let go until she sees that Prince William is ok.

Zara then adjusts his suit jacket slightly as they continue to chat.

Royal fans loved the “tender” moment between the royal cousins.

One person said: “I love that Zara won’t let go until she sees that Prince William is ok.”

Another wrote: “The sweetest! @KensingtonRoyal #PrinceWilliam.”

Someone else added: “The Princess Royal did a wonderful job with both her children: down to earth, resilient, kind, loyal, well adjusted, fun and totally lacking in self importance or self pity. Both a tremendous credit to her.”

Prince William’s appearance at Ascot comes days after the Trooping the Colour 2024 ceremony.

Last Saturday (June 15), William attended the King‘s official birthday celebrations with wife Kate and their three children.

The event marked the Princess of Wales’ first public appearance this year amid her caner diagnosis. In March, Kate shared her diagnosis and revealed she was undergoing “preventative chemotherapy”.

In a statement released last Friday (June 14), Kate issued an update on her cancer. She said: “I am making good progress, but as anyone going through chemotherapy will know, there are good days and bad days. On those bad days you feel weak, tired and you have to give in to your body resting. But on the good days, when you feel stronger, you want to make the most of feeling well.

“My treatment is ongoing and will be for a few more months. On the days I feel well enough, it is a joy to engage with school life, spend personal time on the things that give me energy and positivity, as well as starting to do a little work from home.”
