On Monday, they wrote, "Huge congratulations to the Equestrian eventing team and Tom Pidcock in mountain biking for winning Team GB's first gold medals. Here's to more success ahead!" Rose Canter, Laura Collett, and Tom McEwen secured Great Britain's first gold medal in the eventing team final. Shortly afterward, Pidcock won first place in the men’s cross-country mountain biking.
The Princess Royal, a former Olympic equestrian, presented the gold medals to the eventing team at the Château de Versailles. Princess Anne’s daughter, Zara Tindall, had previously won a silver medal as part of Team GB’s eventing team at the London 2012 Olympics. The King's sister also attended the men’s 100 meters breaststroke final on Sunday night, where she awarded the silver medal to Adam Peaty.
Other notable medalists include Tom Daley and Noah Williams, who won silver in the men's synchronized 10 meters platform event, cyclist Anna Henderson, who claimed silver in the women’s individual time trial, and divers Yasmin Harper and Scarlet M. Jensen. Kimberly Woods and Laura Collett also earned bronze medals.
Currently, the Prince and Princess of Wales are enjoying the school summer holidays with their three children: Prince George (11), Princess Charlotte (9), and Prince Louis (6). Kate has not officially resumed public duties due to ongoing cancer treatment but made appearances at Trooping the Colour and the Wimbledon men’s final. Meanwhile, Prince William last appeared publicly at the Euro 2024 Final in Berlin on July 14, where he and Prince George watched England face Spain. Unfortunately for the royal father and son, and the nation, the Three Lions lost 2-1.
