The Queen’s granddaughter Zara and former England rugby player Mike Tindall, who was born in Otley, have welcomed their third child.

He was born on Sunday March 21 weighing 8lbs 4oz.

The baby’s birth comes just a few weeks after Zara’s cousin Princess Eugenie had her son August on February 9.

A spokeswoman for the couple said: “Zara and Mike Tindall are happy to announce the birth of their third child, Lucas Philip Tindall.”

The newest addition to the Tindall family is a younger brother to seven-year-old Mia and two-year-old Lena.

He is the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh’s 10th great-grandchild, but is only 22nd in line to the throne.

Mike Tindall had joked about wanting a boy this time around.
