Mike Tindall Opens Up About His Children’s Bond With Prince George and Princess Charlotte | GMB

Mike Tindall opens up about his father's Parkinsons' diagnosis and how he has teamed up with the Duchess of Gloucester to make a film all about research into the condition to mark World Parkinsons' Day. Mike also shares what it was like not being able to comfort the Queen who had to sit by herself at Prince Philip's funeral and how lovely it is to see his children grown up closely with their cousin's Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

Mike seems like a nice person and grounded in good values. I enjoyed his Rugby podcast with Prince & Princess of Wales and Princess Anne. Wishing Mike’s father all the best. Glad to see Mike’s children bonding with Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

[@debbieseitz5979]

It's so nice that Prince William's children have such a close relationship with their cousins. From my own experience it's an amazing experience having my own cousins to play with. I hope his father fairs well with this horrible disease, God bless.

[@kimma508]

I agree! I am very close to two of my cousins. I am an only child and I consider them my brother and sister. My son is after the one and the other was my birth coach when I had my first baby.

[@sylviayoung1901]

I'm only just learning about Mr. Tindall. What a loving and gracious gentleman he is. My prayers to his family in their struggles with Parkinson's. Not unlike Sharon's with Ozzy. She too is a strong woman who is a die hard support of her husband and children. Quite different in attitudes of course, but at the heart of it all passionate family support. Then too is Mrs. Fox, she has supported Mr. Fox for 32 years. For a young woman just 3 years into their marriage this is a true pillar of love. How very sad that the world or at least these very ununited States of America are trying to do away with theses sort of women in particular. You know, ones who take please in their families and the Matriarchal support thereof. First it was the non-existence of the Patriarch of the family, now the Matriarch as well. This destruction was done believe it or not with just words. There goes the age old adage of sticks and stones...and in come the pronouns. All I can do is SMH anymore and let the end of the world commence. God bless you all.

[@alisonashford3520]

I was visiting a hotel in Cyprus in 2011 with a group of travel agents on a fam trip. We had just looked at the gym and were making our way to the bar through a door that was being held open by a very helpful gentleman with a beautiful blonde by his side. We all trooped through and it was only when the lady giggled behind her hand that we looked round to see that it was Mike and Zara, who were there on a belated honeymoon. There was several red faced travel agents that day but the royals were lovely.

[@marybusch6182]

There is a wonderful medical show on nhk, medical frontiers and I would strongly suggest he contact the host regarding Parkinson’s treatment in Japan. Remember Japan is over 100 million people and they have about 10,000 Covid deaths which to me is a real miracle.
