- Mike Tindall is claimed to be ‘confused’ about his connection with Prince Harry, following allegations that he insulted the Duke of Sussex during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations, according to the Express UK.
This comes after Mike, an ex-rugby player married to the Queen’s granddaughter Zara, was accused of making a disrespectful comment against Prince Harry earlier this month during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee festivities.
Judi James, a body language specialist, examined film from the Queen’s Jubilee thanksgiving ceremony, when Harry and Mike were seen entering St Paul’s Cathedral after the service, and concluded that the sportsman looked to ‘avoid’ Harry and his wife Meghan Markle.

Mike can be seen staring off into the distance while his wife, Zara, briefly pauses to converse with Harry.
“With Mike’s proximity to William in mind, it also looked to have posed a bit of a quandary when Harry went out into Zara’s group while they waited for their conveyance,” James told Express UK of the incident.
“Zara appears glad to converse and even turns completely to talk to Harry here, who looks impatient and eager to get into his own car,” she wrote.
“Mike, on the other hand, keeps facing front, gazing around and holding his order of service up with an odd face,” James added.

Mike’s behaviour looked out of character for James, who is considered to be more laid-back and uninvolved in politics of any kind.
“This does not appear to be Mike’s regular type of behaviour since he normally appears too easy-going and tough to become engaged in politics, and it might be that his focus was absorbed organising the correct automobiles, but there are no signals of any farewell from him, either,” James says.
