Mike Tindall breaks silence on whether he got permission from King Charles for I’m A Celeb stint

Mike Tindall broke his silence on whether he received the green light from King Charles to go on I’m Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here as he landed in Australia for the show. 

• I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here is set to return to the Australian jungle on November 6th, and will see the royal family’s Mike Tindall take on the bushtucker trials.
• The father-of-three has now landed in Australia and was asked whether the royal family was on board with his involvement.
• This royal news comes after Prince Harry confirmed that huge sums will go to charity from Spare memoir profit.

After being confirmed as one of the many stars joining the I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here 2022 lineup, Mike Tindall has broken his silence over whether he got permission to enter the jungle from The Firm. 

The rugby pro, who is married to Zara Tindall, has now officially landed in Australia to take part in the reality show, which will air on November 6th. He will be joining the likes of Love Island’s Olivia Attwood and Radio X host Chris Moyles, as they endure jungle life and battle in the bushtucker trials for stars, which equal a meal in camp.

Mike Tindall’s involvement makes him the first-ever royal to ever take part in the show and now he’s spoken out for the first time about whether he received the ‘ok’ to go, from King Charles.

According to the Mirror, when asked if he’d sought permission from the royal family, Mike said, “It’s not something I need to tell you though is it."

He then added that while he thinks he’ll struggle with getting ‘hangry’ on the camp's rice and beans rations, “It should be good fun, why not? It is always worth a go isn't it?"

During the conversation, it was also hilariously pointed out to him that he could very well be crowned ‘King of the Jungle’ before King Charles’ coronation, to which he laughed and said, “I am not really thinking about that to be honest.”

Mike then revealed that Australia actually holds a special place in his heart, as it’s where he met his wife, Zara and admitted that he’ll miss the family while he’s away.

He said, “This will probably be the longest time I have been away and then not having communication, that will be the hardest bit. But also you get your head around what you are doing and try to win some stars. I want to win stars because I want to eat.”
