Mike Tindall said: "Watching what Zara had to go through, obviously she loved the Queen beyond everything else.
"Their connection with horses, they had a real bond around that. It's like the world has lost its grandmother in some way.
"I also have loads of regrets about not asking her so many more things… Having nervousness when you sit there, get that lucky seat of being sat next to her.
"Going back through history and everything she’s possibly seen; 15 prime ministers, I don’t know how many presidents."

Prince George most recently attended England's Euro 2024 final football match against Spain in the summer alongside Prince William.
The Prince of Wales was first appointed President of the FA in 2005 and held the position for almost 20 years.
William's decision to step back from the role this summer was motivated by his greater focus on new roles and responsibilities in Wales and as Duke of Cornwall.
