Zara Tindall and Mike Tindall have welcomed their third baby, a baby boy they have named Lucas Philip Tindall.

Zara Tindall, 39, and Mike Tindall, 42, have welcomed a baby boy.

The Queen's granddaughter gave birth to her third child on Sunday, a son they have named Lucas Philip Tindall – a sweet nod to her grandfather Prince Philip.

Mike confirmed the news during a chat on his podcast The Good, The Bad and The Rugby, telling his friends Zara gave birth on the bathroom floor as they "didn't make it to the hospital".

He said: "Sunday got even better because a little baby boy arrived at my house! Yeah brilliant, six o'clock last night.

"We haven't got a name yet, we're still working on it, we always struggle with that, we've never picked one before they arrived.

"8lb 4oz, very bonny. Arrived very quickly, didn't make it to hospital, on the bathroom floor!"

He added: "The best thing about being at home, the best thing was, as soon he's wrapped up, he's skin on skin, straight downstairs. TV room. Golf on. This is what we're doing."

A spokesperson for the couple later confirmed the name of the baby boy.
