On his podcast, Mike Tindall frequently shares anecdotes about his three children, and his most recent admission will be relatable to all parents.
On the ‘The Good, The Bad & The Rugby’ podcast, the 44-year-old former rugby player and co-stars Alex Payne and James Haskell discussed holiday shopping.

James joked that he would be giving his daughter “a box with wrapping paper in it” because children under three aren’t interested in presents. He and wife Chloe Madeley welcomed their first child, Bodhi, in August.
Mike, who is the father of Mia, 8, Lena, 4, and Lucas, 1 year old, agreed and continued: “What you can do, I tell you, is simply purchase a bag of frozen peas, as that is all Lucas wants. Take the bag of frozen peas out of the freezer and dump it on the ground. He has a playroom filled with things, so I’m not interested. Go to the refrigerator, remove all the milk, attempt to break the bottle, and then dump it all on the ground.”
Lucas has only been seen a few times in the public, but he already exhibits traits that resemble his athletic parents.
During the 2022 Festival of British Eventing at Gatcombe Park, the toddler was seen cooing over the horses with mom Zara and giggling with delight as he was lifted up to see them.
Equestrian Zara competed in the London 2012 Olympics, following in the footsteps of her mother Princess Anne, and earned a silver medal with the British eventing team.

Among the family members who attended King Charles’ pre-Christmas lunch on Tuesday at Windsor Castle were Mike and Zara. The couple also cheered on the Princess of Wales during her earlier this month Christmas carol concert at Westminster Abbey.
