Zara and Mike Tindall have been branded "more marketable" than the Sussexes, as they were photographed greeting Prince Harry's best friend in Australia today.
Before entering the Magic Millions Race Day, the King's niece greeted Argentine polo player Nacho Figueras and his wife Delfina Blaquier, looking stylish in a floral dress and matching fascinator.
This comes a few days after the two couples enjoyed a day at the beach in Byron Bay, New South Wales.
Blaquier, Figueras and Zara are all ambassadors for Magic Millions, and were first pictured together at the event in 2019.

Figueras has also become one of Prince Harry's closest confidantes.
Dubbed the "David Beckham of Polo", he has travelled all over the world with the Duke of Sussex to play polo, and seems to be just as close to Zara.
Zara was named the inaugural Magic Millions Racing Women Ambassador in 2012.
She now travels to Surfers Paradise in Queensland every year for the Gold Coast Yearling Sale.

According to brand experts, Zara may profit "millions" from the deal.
Giles Kenningham, founder of PR & Public Affairs Consultancy Trafalgar Strategy and former Number 10 Head of Press, said Zara and Mike are cementing themselves as the biggest earners in the Royal Family as Harry and Meghan have become "tarnished".
He said: "Zara and Mike are sports stars in their own right so have more cachet than other members of the Royal Family.
"They both have big followings, Mike with his podcast and Zara with her equestrian career so have more credibility than others.
