William recently visited the RAF Coningsby new boxing club, where he was asked about the reality show.

Corporal Rachael Howes, who plays in the Coningsby’s women’s team, revealed to PA that she asked William who he’d like to see win the jungle.

She said: “I asked him who he wanted to win, Lioness Jill Scott or his relative Mike Tindall.”

William reportedly smiled and replied: “That’s a tricky one.”

Mike has won over viewers of I’m A Celebrity since arriving in the jungle.

Earlier this week, he left fans in hysterics with a confession about his mother-in-law Princess Anne.

I asked him who he wanted to win, Lioness Jill Scott or his relative Mike Tindall.

Speaking to his campmates Seann Walsh and Babatúndé Aléshé, Mike told a story about a time he accidentally flashed his underwear to Anne during Zara’s 30th birthday celebrations.

He said: “I was dancing on the dance floor, I had like flares on, full outfit but it was quite tight, nothing ever fits – rugby player’s bum and legs – so I was dancing with my mother-in-law and I did a sl**-drop in front of my mother-in-law.

Mike’s story about Princess Anne

“Ripped my trousers, straight in front of her. It happened to be that my boxers that I had on at that time said ‘nibble my nuts.’

“As I’ve turned round, she’s gone, ‘I’d rather not.’ I’ve gone, ‘I’m going,’ and walked off.”

However, one royal commentator hit out at Mike’s comments and branded them “unnecessary”.

Speaking to The Sun Online, Angela Levin said: “I don’t know how his mother-in-law will respond to this but I think she’ll be icily cold about what he’s doing. It’s completely unnecessary.

“He can talk about himself but when he starts to bring in his wife and mother-in-law it starts going over the line.”
