Mike Tindall wanted to 'rip his trousers off' in cheeky Coronation confession

Mike Tindall has made a cheeky confession at wanting to 'rip his trousers off' at King Charles' Coronation Concert.

Mike revealed he was fighting the urge to get up and dance but was waiting for the King to stand up and do the same.

Speaking on his sports commentary podcast The Good, The Bad and The Rugby, he said he was waiting for the cue from the King before he got up.

"You can’t not hear Lionel Richie sing ‘All Night Long’ and get up and dance," the 44-year-old said.

"The worst thing was I was like, ‘Yeah get up and dance to this – but is the King going to stand up?"

The King then appeared to get up and dance - closely followed by the rest of the royals.

Mike added: "I did think at one point, ‘I really want to dance right now, and if I get up and sort of get into a s***drop, rip my trousers off… we knew that Kermit [the frog] was coming at some point, and I was like, ‘Could I dance with Kermit the frog?'"

Mike was so "enthusiastic" at the Concert, he even "broke" his flag, he said, before going on to discuss the "incredible" weekend as a whole.

He said: "I thought the King was on point to a T and I think you could see how much he was concentrating and the emotion that was going into everything."

Mike concluded by calling the coronation weekend "strange but amazing".

A few days after the Coronation weekend came to a close, Mike took to his Instagram account to share some pictures with his 597k followers.

He wrote, alongside the fun clips and snaps, that it had been an "unbelievable 10 day!!!"

Mike shares three children with Zara and the trio were all absent from the celebrations over the historic weekend.

The couple have chosen to keep their children largely out of the royal spotlight, although have occasionally bought their two eldest children - nine-year-old Mia and four-year-old Lena - to engagements.

Their two daughters attended the Easter Sunday service this year, opting to not bring out their two-year-old son.
