Happy birthday Lena Elizabeth Tindall! Zara and Mike Tindall’s youngest daughter is celebrating her sixth birthday today.
Despite being only six years old, Lena stands as a member of one of the world’s most famous families – although she has been shielded from the spotlight for most of her life.
Lena, who is a sister to Mia and Lucas, was born on June 18, 2018 at Stroud Maternity Unit in Gloucestershire.
Her name was publicly revealed just over a week after her birth – with her middle name paying homage to the late Queen Elizabeth II.
Here, Express.co.uk looks at nine adorable pictures of Zara and Mike’s little girl to mark her sixth birthday.
Lena Elizabeth Tindall is the second daughter, and middle child, of Zara and Mike Tindall. At her birth, she joined her big sister Mia – who was four at the time. Lena was promoted to the role of big sister in March 2021, when the family welcomed their son Lucas. The now-six-year-old is the fourth grandchild of Princess Anne – and was the seventh of the late Queen Elizabeth II’s 12 great-grandchildren. She was born weighing 9lbs 3oz and, like Princess Charlotte, shares the middle name Elizabeth after the late Queen.

Mike previously spoke of the close bond between his children and the Prince and Princess of Wales’s three children. Speaking to the Daily Telegraph, Lena’s father said: “Lena and obviously Louis are similar ages and Mia’s sort of in between Charlotte and George, and then you’ve got Peter’s children Savannah and Isla who are just a little bit older. James [Prince Edward’s son] is, well not exactly the ring leader, but he’s the oldest. So, yeah, it’s going to be a good little group.” Lena was spotted making faces to Charlotte during events for the late Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

In 2020, Mike appeared on a podcast – with Lena apparently keen to make an appearance too. In one episode of Joe’s House of Rugby series, Lena tried to steal the limelight. Mike, 41, then laughs and says to his co-host Alex Payne, and says: “Sorry, Lena’s just on fire at the moment, she’s never quiet.” In March 2019, Zara and Mike held Lena’s christening – with royals such as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and the late Queen in attendance. Lena is currently 22nd in line to the throne.
