This Day in History: July 31, 2012

A year ago today, Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge attended the London 2012 Summer Olympics to support Zara Phillips and the rest of the British equestrian team in their bid for a team medal. Team Great Britain won the silver medal at the end of a grueling three-day competition.

About a week before the Duchess of Cambridge was due to give birth, Buckingham Palace announced that Zara Phillips and Mike Tindall were expecting their first child!  Phillips, the 14th in line to throne, is a competitive equestrian and will take a leave from her sporting career for the remainder of her pregnancy. Phillips and Tindall were married in July 2011 in Edinburgh.

The child will be the third grandchild for Princess Anne; Peter Phillips and his wife, Autumn Kelly, have two children- Savannah (b. 2010) and Isla (b. 2012). The child will be the Queen’s fourth great-grandchild.
