The latter, however, clarified that in the absence of real talent, Zara Tindall would never have built such a heritage. “If she wasn't very good at the sport, she might have been accused of taking advantage of her royal connections, but she was a world and European champion, and won a silver medal at the Olympics (from 2012Editor’s note), he stressed. She did it on her own.”
