Princess Beatrice has proven that at least some of the royal family have been watching I’m A Celebrity, as she tweeted her support for Mike Tindall.

The former rugby pro, who was a fan favourite on the series, narrowly missed out on the final as he became the latest star to leave the jungle.

Beatrice, who’s cousins with Mike’s wife Zara, shared the love for her relative on Twitter following his exit, simply writing: ‘He is just the greatest @miketindall13.’

Mike became the first member of the royal family to appear on the show, with his wife Zara flying to Australia to support him at the end of his journey, meeting him on the famous bridge.

Zara ran towards her husband – who she married in 2011 – and they shared a long-lasting tight hug.

Chatting to Ant and Dec in his exit interview, Mike admitted he was ‘happy to go’ but he had a ‘lot of fun’ on his ‘amazing journey.’

‘I’ve been very lucky with everyone that’s been in there and how camp’s worked together. Being in a team for a long period of my life, I didn’t expect it to work as well as it did,’ he said.

He added that it was ‘really hard’ to pick out any specific highlights after having ‘a lot of laughs’ with his fellow campmates.

‘That’s the best thing, you can get through anything when the humour’s good,’ he said. ‘And in all fairness to everyone, everyone had distinct humour.’

The star has stayed very quiet on royal life during his time in camp, including when talk turned to Prince William and King Charles recently.

However, he did tell one story involving his mother-in-law, Princess Anne, which saw her left entirely unimpressed when he managed to split his trousers dancing in front of her.

Safe to say viewers and campmates were both left in stitches.

Mike left the jungle just before the final, with Jill Scott, Owen Warner, and Matt Hancock left to battle it out for the crown.

He’s tipped Jill for the win, but recently criticised former health secretary Hancock, accusing him of strategically trying to win votes.

In the Bush Telegraph, former rugby pro Mike said he’d noticed something around camp.

‘Matt’s making sure his t-shirt and his phone numbers are on display at all times. Matt clearly wants to win,’ he said.

Back in camp, Mike turned Hancock’s jumper over so his voting details weren’t visible – two can play at that game!

‘I’m taking great pleasure in turning it around every time he leaves camp,’ he joked with cameras.

Mike added in the Bush Telegraph: ‘Once a politician, always a politician. Always polling for votes.’

I’m A Celebrity continues tonight at 9pm on ITV.
