Royal Family News – Mike And Zara Tindall Are A Couple For The Ages
Mike once described how he and Zara came to meet: “She was on her gap year and in Australia with friends. Clive [Woodward, my coach] had just told me I was dropped for the semi-final, so I went out for a beer with two others who weren’t playing, Martin Corry and Austin Healey. Zara was in the same bar; we got introduced but didn’t speak that much. Later on, Austin gave me her number and said, ‘She wants you to text her, to say where you’re all going out after the final so she can come along.”
He told the Daily Mail that he texted the Olympic equestrian the very next day, and the rest is history!
Royal Family News – The Tindalls Have A Successful Marriage
Mike proposed to Zara in December 2010 and they married a year later at Canongate Kirk in Edinburgh, Scotland.
According to Mike, life away from the spotlight suits them just fine: “We still like going out and having a good time. We just do it in the right way, where it’s not in the media. If you live in London and go out in London it’s all over the papers. You can still go out and have a good time in Cheltenham. We keep ourselves to ourselves now.”

Mike and two friends host the podcast, “The Good, the Bad and the Rugby,” and that is where he announced that: “A little baby boy arrived at my house.”
He also let fans in on a little background info, Lucas couldn’t wait to make his appearance at the hospital, he wanted to be born at home: “Fortunately, the midwife, who was going to meet us at the hospital, wasn’t that far away. She drove up, got there just as we’d assumed the [position]. And then the second midwife arrived just after the head had arrived.”

What is the secret to the successful union between Mike and Zara? According to Mike, “A marriage or long-term relationship can’t always be roses and rainbows.” In 2021 he said on the U.K.’s Loose Women show, “When you have children, that is a massive shock, change to your system that you’ve never experienced and there is going to be those rocky roads. There are things that are thrown at you that have to test both of you and that will test that relationship. The thing is no one is right, no one is wrong. You have to work through it together.”
Truer words were never spoken!
