How to react when you find yourself in sexy underwear in front of your stepmother? And even worse, when her mother-in-law is there. princess anne, the sister of King Charles III? Well Mike Tindall, married to Zara Phillips, the eldest granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II, offered some answers on Monday! Hilarious, the former rugby player has indeed confided in the personalities who share the poster of the reality TV show I’m a celebrity get me out of herein which he got involved a few weeks ago.
A decision that would have cringed at the highest level of the royal family: Prince William and Kate Middleton would not have been very happy for a member of the clan to expose himself in a reality TV show. The couple from Wales, however, did not have a say in the decision of Mike Tindall (whom they seem to appreciate a lot by the way). Indeed, the former rugby player and his wife are not senior members of the royal family and are very far in the order of succession.
This allows the athlete to be able to keep his podcast on rugby, but also to confide regularly on the major events that occur in the royal family. After the Jubilee, he notably commented on the attitude of little Prince Louis, and thanked people for the love given to the entire royal clan once the funeral of Elizabeth II was over.
Because despite his rank, Mike Tindall has been one of the most loyal members behind the queen with his wife for the past ten years. Always very dignified, the athlete had even agreed to take care of his nieces, Savannah and Isla Phillips (12 and 10 years old) for entry into the Saint-George Chapel, where part of the sovereign’s funeral took place, in addition to his eldest daughter Mia (8 years old). The couple are also parents to Lena (4 years old) and Lucas (1 year old).
“Eat me the nuts? No thanks!”
Children who should not necessarily listen to the story told by their father on television! In the Australian jungle, the former sportsman has indeed completely let go and said that he had already found himself in his underwear in front of his mother-in-law, Princess Anne. “Excessive” when he dances, Mike Tindall has indeed torn his pants, as happens so regularly that he now plans a spare.
“Zara was celebrating I believe its 30th birthday it was a 70s themed party and I was on the dancefloor wearing a complete and proper costume except it was a little tight (because of rugby calves you know)“, he began. “I was dancing with my mother-in-law and my pants ripped in front of her. […] Except that on my underpants, there was written ‘Eat me the nuts’“.
Very embarrassed, the forty-year-old said that King Charles’ sister had had a humorous reaction: “I prefer not, thank you“. An anecdote which shows that the princess knows her son-in-law and that she appreciates him, but also that she knows how to show humor. And which has earned her the applause of other celebrities!
