Mike Tindall: The Fun Uncle Who Kicks It with Prince George
In the heart of a royal garden, a delightful scene unfolds as rugby star Mike Tindall shares his passion for both sports and family.
Known affectionately as the “fun uncle,” Tindall has been spending quality time with Prince George, engaging in backyard football games that reveal the young prince's enthusiasm for the sport.
At just 11 years old, Prince George is not only a budding athlete but also a dedicated supporter of Aston Villa, a love he seems to share with his father, Prince William.
Tindall, now 45, finds joy in chasing after the future king and his own three children, staying fit while fostering a love for sports among them.
“George truly adores football,” Tindall shared during a recent episode of his rugby podcast, which he co-hosts with James Haskell and Alex Payne.
He elaborated on how they often play together in the garden, emphasizing the young prince's commitment to following his favorite team.
“He'll settle down and watch the game no matter where he is.”
Tindall's insights into the royal family's sporting interests paint a picture of a clan that thrives on athleticism.
“They're just a family that enjoys sports,” he remarked, highlighting Catherine's penchant for running and Princess Anne's impressive sports knowledge.
According to Tindall, conversations with his mother-in-law often revolve around the Six Nations rugby tournament, where she isn't shy about sharing her opinions on players and their performances.
His own children, Mia, 10, Lena, 6, and Lucas, 3, are also immersed in the world of sports, with Lucas being the most energetic of the bunch.
Tindall describes him as a typical boy who channels his inner ninja, constantly looking for ways to engage in playful combat.
