It even has its own profile on Facebook – but Mike Tindall has revealed Princess Anne has asked him to get his nose straightened before his wedding.\nTindall told producers and crew on the set of Sky 1 sports quiz A League Of Their Own that his Royal mother-in-law-to-be had expressed her fears about how the wedding photographs might look.
\n\u2018Princess Anne asked me if I\u2019d have the surgery,\u2019 he admitted. But he says that after corrective nasal surgery earlier in his career he is unlikely to go under the knife again.
\nTindall is set to marry 29-year-old Zara Phillips in July and while she may be trying out new looks for the wedding with a new haircut, he says he is \u2018not keen\u2019 to repeat his first experience of nose surgery.
\nThe rugby ace has broken his nose eight times so far in his 12-year career, and his olfactory organ has been the subject of many a light-hearted discussion among his team mates.
\nThey have a nickname for the hefty Lancashire player which is reputedly unprintable, and once Tindall\u2019s nose was described as \u2018a relief map of the Pennines\u2019
\nThe news that Princess Anne had asked him to have corrective surgery so he would look better at the wedding was picked up Twitter, with one fan of the player tweeting, \u2018Couldn\u2019t his nose just be airbrushed in the Wedding photos?\u2019
\nZara, 29, is clearly not bothered about her fiance\u2019s nose. The couple announced their engagement in January, two months after Prince William announced his engagement to Kate Middleton.
\nZara and Tindall were introduced to each other by her cousin Harry at a bar in Sydney, Australia in 2002.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
