ZARA AND MIKE CELEBRATE 12 YEARS

The year 2011 will always be remembered for the Prince and Princess of Wales' Westminster Abbey nuptials, but there was another royal wedding that also took place - Zara and Mike Tindall's.

The sun shone as the royal family gathered on 30 July at Canongate Kirk in Edinburgh to watch the Princess Royal's daughter marry the ex-England rugby pro.

They have since had three children, Mia, nine, Lena, five, and Lucas, two, and appear very happy together.

"It's really great to see a couple still clearly head over heels for one another after 12 years of marriage and three children," former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond tells OK!.

"Zara and Mike just seem to get better and better as the years go by. They're the most tactile and fun-loving of all the younger royals. They're devoted parents, who are very relatable and willing to be seen out and about as a family. Perhaps the secret to their success is simply that both Zara and Mike are just incredibly likeable people."
