Former rugby star Mike Tindall reveals what he calls Prince William in private. And also explains the background to the name.

“You’re In So Much Trouble!”

The former rugby player said: “The Prince of Wales is known to me as ‘One Pint Willy’ because he’s not the best drinker.” An English pint is approximately half a liter. Tindall added that he comes from a sport that is also about togetherness and “where a few beers are drunk quite often.”

He then apologized to Prince William on the podcast for revealing his nickname. “Oh my God. It’s out there now. Sorry, sir.” His wife reportedly added, “You’re in so much trouble!”

It’s not the first time that Mike Tindall has talked about royal matters: He revealed in another podcast in the fall that Princess Kate loves the drinking game “Beer Pong,” in which table tennis balls are thrown into drinking cups. The opponent must drink every cup hit.

Member Of The Royal Family Since 2011

Last year, Mike Tindall also made headlines with a TV appearance. He took part in the British version of “I’m A Celebrity – Get Me Out Of Here!”, “I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!”. He also lasted quite a long time in the jungle camp. The 45-year-old narrowly missed the final and was happy with fourth place.

Mike and Zara Tindall met in 2003 and married in 2011. They have three children: nine-year-old Mia Grace, Lena Elizabeth, who is four years younger, and two-year-old Lucas Philip.
