Mike Tindall announced the birth of his third child Luke in 2021 on Thursday’s episode of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
The former rugby star (44) is married to King Charles’ cousin Zara Phillips (41), and they have three children, Mia, eight, Lena, four and Lucas, one.
At camp, the celebrity group discussed waxing, which Owen compared to the pain of childbirth.
Opening: Mike Tindall spoke about the birth of his third child Lucas in 2021 on Thursday’s episode of I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!
This prompted Mike to open up about the birth of his son: “Lucas was quick. Third. While we were packing our things to go to the hospital, she got out of the bath, she could barely stand, she was shaking. The midwife said, “She won’t make it to the hospital.”
“She said, ‘You don’t want to deliver in the car.’ To the gym, two exercise mats in the bathroom. But yeah.’
Regarding Zara’s pain, he said: “From that moment on, she was fast. She almost crushed me to death.
Royal: Mike married King Charles’ cousin Zara in 2011 and told his campmates on Monday’s show how he met the royal family in Sydney (pictured together in June 2022)

“You can’t say anything, can you? “Can you let go, you’re really hurting me?!”
It comes after Mike opened up about meeting his wife Zara in Sydney in Monday’s episode and admitted they were “really happy to get banged” on their first “drunk” date.
The former English rugby champion met Zara during England’s Rugby World Cup campaign in Australia in 2003.
At the main camp, Mike told campmates Babatúndé Aleshe and Owen Warner about his first meeting with his wife, whom he married in 2011.
Reflection: Talking about the birth of his son, he says: “Lucas was fast. Third. When we got our things to go to the hospital, she got out of the tub, she could barely stand, she was shaking.
Crazy moment: As for Zara’s pain, he said: ‘She was, but it went fast from there. She almost strangled me to death’
He also spoke candidly about their first date, recalling: “First real date, just went local for lunch. And ended up being pretty drunk. Then we found out we both like to be crushed. It was ‘ a good start.”
Mike explained: “I was at the World Cup, she was watching. I was kicked out of the semi-finals. I was devastated and went for a beer with another guy who got ripped off and one guy who stayed [in Sydney]. They had met her before and they introduced us and started talking.’
Owen replied, “So if you never got dropped off, you never would have met her?”
Mike said: “Best decision of Clive Woodward’s life.” Owen added: “Thank God he threw you away.”
It comes after Mike confirmed his wife Zara will fly to Australia to join him on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! “when it runs out” – and warned him not to overeat.
The rugby star is the first member of the royal family to join the ITV series, which began on Sunday.
