'Legend of a lady' Mike Tindall admits he still gets nervous meeting Queen 'Sweaty palms'

Speaking on his rugby podcast, The Good, the Bad and the Rugby, Zara Tindall's husband described the Queen as a "legend of a lady".

The podcast usually features light-hearted chat on the theme of rugby with Mr Tindall's co-hosts James Haskell and Alex Payne.

When asked by his co-host Alex Payne about his first meeting with the Queen, the 2003 Rugby World Cup winner said: "I did get sweaty palms."

He added: “I think anyone would. "She’s such a legend of a lady that I still get nervous now when I see her. "I’m way more comfortable now, but… it’s been a journey.”

He was later asked what he gets called in the Royal household, with his co-host asking: "Are you Mike, Michael, Lord Tindall of Tindalltown?". But the royal responded: "I'm Mike".
