Mike and Zara Tindall spark new rumours surrounding Australia move

The song, set for release on July 4, explores the theme of loving someone who lives 9,000 miles away in Australia - the approximate distance from the United Kingdom.

Their involvement in promoting a track specifically about the geographical divide between Britain and Australia has fuelled long-standing rumours about the couple's future plans.

The video shows Mike Tindall dressed in red overalls and a hard hat, shirtless and holding a beer, lip-syncing to the lyrics: "Problem 1, 9,000 f****** miles."

Zara appears separately in the clip, energetically dancing with glitter on her face whilst mouthing the words: "Two, it's clearly more one-sided."

The footage was filmed at a private party, reportedly held at the couple's home, Aston Farm. Actor Jamie Dornan also makes an unexpected appearance in the promotional video.

The Tindalls visited Australia most recently in January, attending the Magic Millions racing event on the Gold Coast.

Mike is scheduled to return to Melbourne in July to watch the British and Irish Lions compete against the Wallabies, though it remains unconfirmed whether Zara or their three children will accompany him.

The couple have frequently expressed their affection for Australia over the years, with both making regular visits to the country.

Speaking to Australian Women's Weekly in 2019, Zara revealed that relocating to Australia permanently could be on the cards.

"Probably not while I'm still competing. It would be a little bit hard commuting. But after that, yes, I think if an opportunity came up, we'd definitely think about it," she said.

Mike added: "It's not a rushed lifestyle. I think it's a great place and we enjoy it so much."

Whilst the artist Chilli Chilton also has a documented fondness for Australia, the specific circumstances of how the Tindalls became involved in the music video remain unclear.

The couple's connection to Australia dates back to 2003 when they first met at Manly Wharf Bar in Sydney.

Zara was travelling on her gap year whilst Mike was visiting as a Lions player for the Rugby World Cup.

Their romantic history with the country adds another layer of significance to their participation in a song about long-distance love between the UK and Australia.

Whilst the Tindalls cannot personally relate to being separated by 9,000 miles, their appearance in the video has been widely interpreted as an intentional acknowledgement of their deep ties to the country.
