During the segment, Mike discussed how he and Zara joined other members of the royal family, including Princess Anne, Prince Edward and Prince Andrew, for a rare night away from the children.
Mike and Zara then continued the night out and headed to The Arts Club, a prestige private members club next door to The Ritz. Mike said: "It was quite nice to have a little date night. You know, sometimes when you've got three children, it's not always the easiest to get out and just have a drink together.
"So, it was quite nice to have a little bit of time where we could just go out and have a drink and have a chat and it was it was quite nice. So, I definitely don't regret that."

Journalist Kate Garraway also mentioned Mike's show-stealing dance moves during the coronation concert, where he was spotted waving his flag and dancing away alongside his wife.
Mike replied: "As Hitch said: 'You need to stay in the safe zone,' and my flag waving [was that]!"

One fan tweeted: "Wouldn't you love to hang out with Mike Tindall?" whilst another said: "I wish there was a red button option to just watch Mike Tindall living his best life." A third commented: "Mike Tindall is a total ledge #CoronationConcert that is couple goals right there."
