Zara Tindall's hilarious wake-up call for husband Mike as police 'let themselves in' to Princess Anne’s flat

Zara Tindall and Mike Tindall attend day ten of the Wimbledon Tennis Championships at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club on July 10, 2024.

The late Queen Elizabeth was woken up each day by the stirring sound of bagpipes, but that is nothing compared to the hilarious yet shocking royal wake-up call Mike Tindall once received. Although Princess Anne lives at Gatcombe Park in Gloucestershire, she has a flat at St James’s Palace in London too.

According to Zara Tindall, her now-husband once spent the night there after a long evening out with a friend and almost missed a commitment the next day. But not on her watch! As reported by The Mirror, the equestrian royal spoke about her solution to Mike oversleeping during an appearance at London Sporting Club Lunch.
