Harriet Sperling, a 45-year-old nurse, joined her husband to be and the other royals for their annual summer retreat in the Scottish Highlands.
It is understood that during this visit, Harriet will face the unofficial 'test' that potential members of the family are put through on royal protocol during their first visit to Balmoral.
While other royals first trip to Balmoral took place years before their engagement – with Kate Middleton making the visit two years before she married Prince William – Harriet's visit comes less than a month after her engagement to Peter was announced.
But despite the hasty trip to Scotland, royal insider have revealed that the mother-of- one enjoyed her time with the royals.
Harriet reportedly took part in a bonding trip with Peter's sister – Zara Tindall – who she joined on an electric mountain bike trip along with her children.
She also joined other family members horse riding around the estate.
Because Peter is 'smitten' with his fiancee, it is reported that, Harriet is likely to pass the test with 'flying colours'.

Everything about The Balmoral Test is unhinged
This seems to be a lot of nonsense, Harriet has already met the family and that includes Charles and Camilla, she won’t need to know any royal protocol since Peter himself barely attends any royal events, and it isn’t necessary for married in to undergo the “balmoral test”, for example Meghan has never been to Balmoral.
I don’t know about Kate’s supposed visit 2 years before her marriage, but Kate visited Balmoral often when she and William were in university.
might feel like a test even if it isn’t one. the first time I went away with my husband’s family felt like trial by fire.
Phillips’ is the correct way to write it.
It’s a bit silly for the Maul to claim the woman is being tested. She’s passed the biggest test. He’s asked her to marry him. This is the usual family vacation. I detest the Daily Mail. Good pictures, though.
Hopefully the changes in the royal family and plans for the monarchy will not make this such an odious experience. I think they are finally realizing that people are just humans.
Is Peter angling to become a working royal or something? Why would I care what he’s up to 😪
