There's a lot going on in the Tindall household this week, with two of the biggest events of the year: Royal Ascot and the seventh birthday of their second daughter, Lena.

Mike and Zara Tindall's three children, Mia, 11, Lena, seven, and Lucas, four, lead mostly normal lives, and are very rarely pictured in public other than on major occasions such as Cheltenham, Christmas or the coronation of their great uncle King Charles, so it's always special to see new photos of the vivacious bunch.

Last year, Mike revealed that Lena enjoys rugby, gymnastics, swimming and hockey, following in her sporty parents' footsteps, so who knows what kind of birthday party she'll be throwing with her friends this year!

Scroll down to see the best pics of Lena over the past seven years...

Adventures

After a stint on an inflatable, wearing a cute floral dress and pink hair clip, baby Lena needed a helping hand to get off and luckily her mum was there to provide assistance.

Riding high

Mum-of-three Zara was also pictured with Lena on her shoulders at the Festival of British Eventing in 2019. The horse show takes place at Gatcombe Park, which is where the family lives so they didn't have had to go very far for a fun day out.

Royal events

Making a rare public outing, Lena was on her best behaviour at the Queen's Platinum Jubilee pageant in 2022, photographed looking at the programme with her cousin Princess Charlotte, who is the daughter of Prince William and Princess Kate. The little one wore a sweet denim jacket, accessorised with a teal green headband.

Camouflage queen

Last summer saw Lena don a camouflage outfit for a day at the funfair. She added wellies to avoid the mud and was triumphant during a game of hook-a-duck.

Bouncing about

With a taste for adventure, we bet Lena loved this trampoline activity, which saw her flying high during summer 2023.

Playful family time

Proving she's inherited her dad's sense of fun, Lena pulled faces as she waited for her mother and great-aunt, Sarah Ferguson, to finish chatting.
