Mike Tindall's true feelings about Prince Harry revealed in one-word remark

Mike Tindall once shared his true feelings about Prince Harry with a scathing one-word remark.

The ex-rugby ace is married to Harry's cousin Zara, who is Princess Anne's daughter.

Mike, 45, is said to have made the remark following the late Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee party at Buckingham Palace in June 2022. Harry, 39, returned for the celebrations but did not attend the concert, opting only to be present at one event during the course of the weekend.

After the concert, Mike allegedly spoke to another guest and reportedly described Harry's behaviour as that of a "b******," the Daily Express reports.

Harry and his wife Meghan, 42, returned to the UK for the Platinum Jubilee celebrations but only made one official appearance with Royal Family, which occurred at the thanksgiving service at St Paul's Cathedral.

Meghan was spotted speaking to Zara, 42, but Mike appeared to choose not to engage in conversation with Harry, instead sitting silently or speaking with the Earl of Snowdon.

Harry has always shared a close bond with Zara and became good friends with Mike when he started dating her. However, Harry's relationships with the Royals are believed to have broken down over recent years, and he now resides in California with Meghan and their two children, Archie, four, and two year old Lilibet.

As they continue to carve out separate careers away from the Royals, Harry and Meghan's latest project has been revealed. The pair have been confirmed to head on a joint visit to Nigeria in May for talks on the Invictus Games.

However, there are rumbles that there is more to the trip as an expert has claimed it's an attempt to "one-up" Harry's royal relatives. The trip was announced this week and will come after Harry visits the UK solo on May 8 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games.

But now, Mail On Sunday's Charlotte Griffiths has claimed that the Royal Family are "rolling their eyes" at the upcoming Nigeria trip.

She said while appearing on GB News: "Of course, they never try anything other than get a one-up on the Royal Family but I think what they're really doing is on paper, they're trying to celebrate 10 years of Invictus Games."

She added: "Let's face it, the real reason is that they need content for Netflix, they want to appear as quasi-royals, they want to carry on conducting quasi-tours as if they are still members of the Royal Family.

I think the fact they are going to a Commonwealth country when they describe the Commonwealth as Empire 2.0 is a little bit rich."
