“DESPERATE” Mike Tindall has been sharing more “unpleasant” confessions on I’m A Celeb and an expert has suggested the Royal Family won’t be happy.
The 44-year-old has already branded fellow campmate Matt Hancock a “bulls****er”, revealed he and his royal wife Zara went on a boozy first date, and tackled a production assistant.
But the former rugby star, married to the King’s niece has sparked controversy in his latest I’m a Celeb fireside rant.
He spoke about his dislike for Matt Hancock and said: “When he opened his mouth when he was asked why did he come here, all I heard was bulls***, bulls***, bulls***.”
But Royal expert Angela Levin said: “It seems like a case of pot calling the kettle black. How cheeky.
“He’s being nasty about why Matt Hancock has come on but he hasn’t got a responsibility to the Royal Family.
“He’s just a politician and I think that Mike has got a responsibility – telling us all how much he’s drinking with his wife and all this unpleasant nastiness – and then is critical of what the politician is saying.
“I think he’s desperate for a new career to make money out of this.”
“I just think it’s tacky,” Angela added.
The Royal expert claimed his behaviour is likely to cause many members of the public to turn their back on the former England star.
The dad-of-three was also seen tackling a production crew member – breaking strict Covid rules – just before entering the jungle.
This came before former contestant Olivia Attwood was told to leave the camp on medical grounds in accordance with the show’s Covid restrictions.
In previous jungle revelations, Mike also wasted no time in spilling Royal Family secrets and explained how he met his Zara.
Mike told Babatúndé and Owen Warner: “I was at the World Cup, she was out watching.
“I got dropped from the semi-final. I was p****d off and so I went for a beer with another guy who got dropped and a guy who was over [in Sydney]. They’d met her before and they introduced us and then got chatting.”
Owen replied: “So if you never got dropped you never would have met her?”
Mike said: “Best decision of Clive Woodward’s life.”
Owen added: “Thank god he dropped you.”
Speaking about his first date, Mike added: “First actual date, just went out for lunch locally.
“And ended up being quite a boozy one. Then we figured out that we both quite like getting smashed. It was a good start.”
The couple married in 2011, have three children together and live in Gloucestershire.
Speaking to OK! Magazine, fellow rugby star Danny Care said: “He’s still a hell of a party animal. Him and Zara enjoy partying when they can.
“I know that Mike has a secret bar in the house somewhere which he’s FaceTimed me from a few times.
“I was very jealous of that during lockdown. He’ll be bringing the party to I’m A Celeb.”
But Royal biographer Angela Levin disclosed that the Royal Family may not share the same enthusiasm for Mike’s time on the jungle series.
She said: “I’m sure they are bracing for what’s to come.
“If not the royals I’m sure his mum-in-law Princess Anne is.”
“Why is he there? Is he jealous of his wife? Does he want to be a celeb? He’s tasted what it’s like to be a royal and now he wants to be a celebrity? Does he want to be on panels? I think it’s getting worse and worse.
“He’s loosening up in a way that’s really unpleasant.”
