Former English rugby player and current “I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!” contestant Mike Tindall turned heads last night when he admitted to ripping his trousers by doing a controversial dance move, accidentally flashing his boxers to mother-in-law, Princess Anne in the process.
Tindall, who lives in Gloucestershire, revealed this on air in one of the pre-recorded segments of the reality show in which he was telling fellow campmates that the reason he always brings a spare suit to parties and gatherings is because he keeps ripping his trousers in accidents.
Mike continued to explain that the underwear he was wearing during the royal incident at Zara’s 30th birthday had the words “nibble my nuts” inscribed onto them, to which the royal Princess Anne reportedly exclaimed: “I’d rather not.”
Mike Tindall married Zara Phillips, who is 20th in line to the throne, in 2011 and it is unclear if she approved the story before he went into the jungle and there has been no official comment from the royal family on the matter.
The ex-England Rugby player also made headlines when he wore speedos into the infamous camp pool, prompting hosts Ant and Dec to burst into laughter.
With this story still unfolding, Princess Anne, alongside Prince Edward was proposed as one of King Charles III’s state councillors who has the power to act on his behalf.
