'He's Been Great So Far': Proud Dad Mike Tindall Raves About Newborn Son Lucas On His Podcast
Baby bliss! Mike and Zara Tindall welcomed baby No. 3 on Sunday, March 21, and it seems like the little tot — who they named Lucas — is a perfect addition to their family.
"It's been good actually, I can't complain," Mike, 42, said on his podcast, "The Good, The Bad & The Rugby."
"He's pretty good the wee man, he loves his Umbro Lord's work stash, that we've already got him in but he, no, he's been great so far," he continued.
Lucas — who is the Queen's 10th great grandchild — came as a surprise, Mike revealed on his podcast last week.
"A little baby boy arrived at my house!" he said, adding that Zara's friend, Dolly Maude, was "fortunately" at their home "and recognized that we wouldn't have got to the hospital in time."
"So, it was run into the gym, get a mat, get into the bathroom, get a mat on the floor, towels down, 'brace-brace-brace,'" Mike — who also shares daughters Mia, 7, and Lena, 2, with Zara — shared.
"Fortunately, the midwife, who was going to meet us at the hospital wasn't that far away, so she drove up, got there just as we'd assumed the pos-ish [as he called the position]. And then the second midwife arrived just after the head had arrived," he continued, adding that Lucas “arrived very quickly ... on the bathroom floor."
Since Mike already has two daughters, he was excited to welcome a male into the family. "The best thing about being at home ... was as soon as he was wrapped up, it was skin on skin, TV room, golf on. 'This is what me and you are doing!'" he exclaimed. "There was actually Bath versus Wigan [rugby] game was on, and then I watched the final day of the golf."
