Since I’m a Celebrity, Mike and Zara Tindall have spent more time in Australia than the UK, with Zara’s equestrian career keeping them busy in the southern hemisphere.

The couple spent several weeks there following Mike’s stint in the jungle before returning to England for Christmas at Sandringham.

However, the duo jetted back to Australia for Zara to partake in Magic Millions, which saw her ride her horse on the beach on the Gold Coast.

The Magic Millions is a horse auction that also sees polo being played, so it makes sense that it’s an event Zara is keen to attend.

Being in Australia has seen the Tindalls miss out on much of the drama surrounding the release of Prince Harry’s book, Spare. But they haven’t been entirely removed from the hoo-ha.

At the Magic Millions, the couple were seen mingling with the Duke of Sussex's closest friends Nacho Figueras and his wife Delfina Blaquier.

Princess Anne's daughter and Delfina shared a hug as they played against one another in opposing teams.

Their sighting comes shortly after Nacho and Delfina were acknowledged in the extraordinary memoir, which went on sale globally on Tuesday. The special tribute also went to Chris Martin, Oprah Winfrey, James Corden, Tyler Perry for "their unwavering friendship and support."
