Mike Tindall once revealed his feelings about Prince Harry with a single damning one-word comment.
The former England rugby star and spouse of the Queen’s granddaughter, Zara, is said to have made the blunt observation after the platinum party at Buckingham Palace in June 2022. This was when Prince Harry had travelled back to mark the Queen’s historic jubilee.
Tindall allegedly didn’t mince his words about what he thought of the Duke of Sussex. Whilst the Prince skipped the concert outside Buckingham Palace, Tindall was there and ended up seated behind the current Prince of Wales.
After the concert finished, Tindall chatted to another attendee and purportedly branded Prince Harry’s conduct as that of a “b******,” according to the Daily Express.
During the festivities, Meghan and Harry made just one formal appearance alongside other family members.

The couple attended the thanksgiving service at St Paul’s Cathedral but stayed away from public engagements for the rest of the celebrations.
Although Zara did chat with Meghan, her husband avoided conversation with the Prince, choosing instead to remain quiet or talk with the Earl of Snowdon.
As rows of royals began leaving, Zara was spotted next to her husband who was positioned by the exit ready to greet those leaving the venue.
Video captured them being approached by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, with Meghan seen having an enthusiastic chat with the Queen’s granddaughter.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle previously shared a close relationship with Mike and Zara Tindall. However, the friendship crumbled after the Duke and Duchess began mingling with Hollywood’s elite.
Jane Owen, celebrity PR specialist and founder of Jane Owen PR, previously told The Mirror that “Hollywood loves Royalty,” observing that both Zara and Mike “can take advantage of that interest and attention.”
She added: “If their team knows what they are doing they could potentially become even more popular in time than Meghan and Harry because they don’t have to combat the negative publicity and the mistakes they have made to regain trust and momentum.”
