The Queen's granddaughter Zara Phillips and rugby player Mike Tindall are expecting their first baby in the new year, Buckingham Palace has said.

The couple married at Canongate Kirk, in Edinburgh, in July 2011.

The birth will follow the arrival of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's baby, which is due this month.

In a statement, Buckingham Palace said: "Mr and Mrs Mike Tindall are very pleased to announce that Zara Tindall is expecting a baby in the new year."

It went on: "The Princess Royal and Captain Mark Phillips, Mr Phillip and Mrs Linda Tindall, and members of both families are delighted with the news.

"This baby will be the first child for Mike and Zara and the third grandchild for the Princess Royal."

The new baby will become 16th in line to the throne and the fourth great grandchild to the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh.

The others are Savannah and Isla Phillips, daughters of Zara's brother, Peter, and the Duchess of Cambridge's expected baby.

Miss Phillips, 32, does not hold a royal title and is not an HRH.

Her children will be titled Miss or Master Tindall.

Sporting success

The couple, who are determinedly low key, met during England's Rugby World Cup-winning campaign in Australia in 2003.

Mike Tindall, 34, is a former England rugby star, now a player-coach at Gloucester.

Miss Phillips has achieved sporting success in her own right, winning individual gold in three-day eventing at the World Equestrian Games in Germany in 2006.

The title helped her become BBC Sports Personality of the Year later that year, following in the footsteps of her mother, Princess Anne, who won the award in 1971.

As a member of the Great Britain eventing team, she won a silver medal at the London 2012 Olympics.

Miss Phillips will drop from 14th to 15th in line to the throne following the birth of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's first baby.
