Known for his close ties to Prince William, Mike Tindall’s alleged harsh comment towards Prince Harry has sparked controversy within royal circles.
The incident took place during a reception at the palace on Saturday, June 4, 2022, marking the Platinum Jubilee of the late Queen Elizabeth II.
Prince Harry’s return to the UK for the jubilee celebrations, accompanied by his wife Meghan, drew significant attention.

Footage from the event captured a moment where Zara Tindall and her husband engaged in conversation with various guests as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex approached them.
Notably, Mike Tindall appeared to deliberately avoid direct interaction with Prince Harry and Meghan, opting instead to engage in private conversation with other attendees.
Lady Colin Campbell, a prominent figure in royal commentary, suggested that Mike Tindall’s actions signaled his allegiance to Prince William.
In an interview with GB News and Entertainment Daily, she remarked on Tindall’s deliberate avoidance of Prince Harry and Meghan, indicating a clear stance of loyalty towards Prince William amidst the ongoing royal dynamics.
The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, commemorating her 70th year on the throne, has been a significant event in 2022.
The rare four-day weekend in early June provided an opportunity for the UK to celebrate this historic milestone.
As the royal family navigates through various challenges and changes, the interactions and dynamics among its members continue to draw attention and speculation from the public and media alike.
Mike Tindall’s choice to distance himself from Prince Harry at the Platinum Jubilee event has raised questions about the underlying tensions within the royal family.
