It may be Zara Tindall's 45th spin around the sun, but that doesn't mean her doting husband, Mike, is giving her a day off.
The former England rugby star, 47, is currently in the middle of his annual charity golf event at the Belfy Golf Club in the Midlands, which raises money for Cure Parkinson's and the Matt Hampson Foundation.

Stepping out alongside the birthday girl in matching outfits, Mike quipped: "I can’t believe she's letting me play golf on her birthday. What a legend!" in a post on Instagram, alongside a red love heart emoji.

Meanwhile, Mike rocked the same mint green top as his beloved but chose a rather playful pair of golfing trousers, something he is known for sporting when it comes to his yearly fundraiser.

Canadian-born Autumn and her former husband, Peter, finalised their divorce in 2021, after announcing their separation two years prior.
Autumn and Peter tied the knot at St George's Chapel in Windsor in May 2008, with the bride wearing a gown designed by Sassi Holford. Her mother-in-law, Princess Anne, also loaned her the Festoon Tiara, while Zara was one of her bridesmaids.
