Little Lucas Tindall marked his third birthday recently, reminiscing about his extraordinary entrance into the world.

The youngest member of the Tindall family, Lucas, was not born in a hospital like most children but on the bathroom floor of his parents’ home.

Zara and Mike Tindall, proud parents of three, found themselves in a whirlwind of events as they welcomed Lucas into the world in a rather unexpected setting.

Celebrating his third year on March 21, Lucas’s birth in 2021 was far from conventional.

Mike Tindall shared the gripping tale of the day Zara went into labor on his podcast, ‘The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.’

In a rush against time, Mike vividly described the frantic moments leading up to Lucas’s birth.

With Zara’s friend, Dolly Moore, by their side, the couple realized that reaching the hospital in time was out of the question.

Describing the chaotic scene, Mike recounted the mad dash to prepare for the imminent arrival of their son.

From grabbing a mat to laying down towels on the bathroom floor, every second counted as they braced themselves for what lay ahead.

Luckily, the midwife, who was en route to the hospital, arrived just in time to assist with the birth, ensuring a safe delivery for both mother and baby.

In a surprising revelation, Mike also shared snippets of his time on the reality show ‘I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here,’ where he regaled his fellow campers with the nerve-wracking experience of Lucas’s birth.

The intensity of the labor pains Zara endured left a lasting impression on Mike, who humorously recalled how she nearly choked him in the process, highlighting the challenges they faced during the unconventional home birth.

While home births may raise eyebrows within the royal family, it was a common practice until Princess Anne broke tradition in 1977 by opting for a hospital birth for her son, Peter Phillips.

The Lindo Wing of St. Mary’s Hospital in London, where Peter and Zara were born, holds significance as the birthplace of several royal heirs, including those of Princess Diana and Princess Kate.

Reflecting on past royal births, the Lindo Wing served as a backdrop for iconic moments captured on the hospital steps, with Kate and Prince William following in the footsteps of Diana and Prince Charles.

The shift towards hospital births marked a departure from the historical norm, where Queen Elizabeth herself gave birth to her children at Buckingham Palace, and other royals, like Zara’s mother, opted for home births due to palace renovations.
