There is no holiday planned at the moment afterwards." Asked how his royal wife felt about the show, Mike went on: "She is fine, otherwise I wouldn't have done it would I? "I was always on the fence but I do think it will be good fun at the end of the day. That is the other thing, I like groups of people and I like things that can be good fun so let's see. I might regret it." Mike will be the first royal to ever take part in I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! Mike is married to the late Queen's granddaughter Zara Phillips, making him the long-running show's first-ever royal family signing. Wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses, Mike told The Sun: "It's probably one of the longest times we've been away completely with no communication. When you go away you still have communication, so that's obviously going to be the hardest bit. "You've just got to get your head around doing what you're doing and try and win some stars and stuff and see where you go from there. I want to win stars because I want to eat! "The hanger is always going to be the biggest thing you have got to worry about but I've also got three kids, so dealing with lack of sleep comes with the territory.' His role on the show means that, if successful, Mike could be 'King of the Jungle' before King Charles' coronation. But the dad-of-three laughed: "I'm not really thinking about that to be honest." He added that he had "no idea" if Princes William and Harry would be tuning in to watch him face Bushtucker Trials. Mike joins the stars who have alre){kind=link}
