\n\t\t\t\t\t“While some family members can be very ‘royal’, Mike is just himself and is relaxed and playful with George<\/strong>, Charlotte<\/strong> and Louis,” a source told The Times. <\/p>\n

_
\n\t\t\t\t\t“It helps that they (Mike, Zara<\/strong>, William<\/strong> and Kate<\/strong>) all have children around the same age that they can fool around together privately and bring a sense of normality to what is a stressful situation for everyone involved,” the insider continued.
Mike Tindall and Zara Tindall’s three kids, Mia<\/strong>, Lena<\/strong> and Lucas<\/strong>, often play with Prince William<\/a> and Kate Middleton’s children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. <\/p>\n

_
\n\t\t\t\t\tOver the years, Prince William<\/a> and Kate Middleton have been outspoken about their bond with Mike Tindall \u2014 so much so, the pair’s sense of humor was spotlighted on Mike’s podcast, “The Good, The Bad & The Rugby.”
“I think the podcast humanized them a little bit, and I kind of wish they’d let us put the uncut version out, because it would have blown the public away,” Mike wrote in The Good, The Bad & The Rugby \u2014 Unleashed.<\/p>\n

\n _
\n\t\t\t\t\t“They came across as down-to-earth, fully engaged, funny and knowledgeable,” Mike Tindall continued. “It was a far more enlightening chat than I expected, not because I thought they’d be dull (I already knew that they weren’t)\u00a0but because I know how everything to do with the royal family is so carefully controlled.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By Katherine Tinsley 10:06am PDT, Oct 22, 2025 _ “While some family members can be very ‘royal’, Mike…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":520577,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[7709,7714,7713,533,2832,532,2831,7710,519,7711,7712],"class_list":{"0":"post-520576","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-british-royal-family","9":"tag-catherine","10":"tag-catherine-middleton","11":"tag-kate-middleton","12":"tag-prince-of-wales","13":"tag-prince-william","14":"tag-princess-of-wales","15":"tag-royal-families","16":"tag-royal-family","17":"tag-uk-royal-family","18":"tag-william"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/520576","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=520576"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/520576\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/520577"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=520576"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=520576"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=520576"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
