Mike Tindall, Zara Tindall’s spouse, is 43 years old and resigned from rugby in 2014. However, before his retirement, he was disabled by a succession of devastating injuries, one of which threatened his life.
The former athlete and I’m a Celebrity contestant was a member of the Bath and Gloucester rugby teams throughout his playing career. He was injured while playing in a Six Nations game against Wales in 2008.
A tackle caused him to dislocate a rib, which was followed by a lung puncture and a rip in his liver.
