Zara Tindall, 39, and her husband Mike have welcomed their third child. The former rugby player confirmed the happy news on his The Good, The Bad & The Rugby podcast. He confirmed the baby boy came into the world on Sunday, March 21.

He said: “So yeah, it was running to the gym, get a mat, get into the bathroom, get the mat on the floor, towels down, brace, brace, brace.”
