The royal family ‘raised no objections’ over Mike Tindall’s I’m A Celebrity appearance as King Charles was ‘informed throughout the process’, a royal correspondent has revealed. Speaking on behalf of Slingo, royal correspondent Chales Rae has opened up on the formy rugby star’s connection to the royal family as he prepares to make his debut in the jungle this weekend.
Mike, who is married to Princess Anne’s daughter Zara Tindall, is the first member of the royal family to take part in the ITV show, which is returning to Australia for the first time since the pandemic. But it appears Mike was faced with some challenges of his own ahead of the show, after coming face-to-face with the royal family over his reality TV stint.
Charles said: "Mike will certainly have run his appearance with the royal family. He will have discussed it with Zara and Princess Anne, as well as aides to the King. Charles is obviously Mike’s uncle through marriage, so I can only imagine he will have been informed throughout the process. The very fact he is appearing clearly means that none of the family have raised objections.
