Mike Tindall has revealed he hasn’t yet had the opportunity to meet the new royal baby Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor. The former rugby player, who is married to Prince Harry’s cousin Zara, said he was "overjoyed" at the new addition to the family during an appearance on Good Morning Britain on Friday.
When asked about plans to meet the royal baby, Mike replied: "Not yet, we still haven’t managed to get together yet. It’s funny everyone seems to think that we’ve all been round but it’s not that way is it."

Mike added: "It’s not quite that way but at least he’s happy and healthy and they’re happy, so all you can be for them is overjoyed." While Zara and Mike haven’t yet taken their daughters Mia and Lena to Frogmore Cottage, Prince Harry and Meghan have had several other royal visitors over the past two weeks.
