Mike Tindall has launched his very own budgie smugglers line for charity after sporting the itsy bitsy swimwear during his time on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!
The 44-year-old former rugby player, who came fourth in the ITV series over the weekend, with former Lioness Jill Scott going on to win the crown.
During his time in the jungle, Mike caught viewers’ attention when he wore tight trunks as he soaked in the pool and showered.
His new limited edition range created in collaboration with his team from The Good, The Bad & The Rugby podcast features two jungle-inspired designs, one branded with the phrase ‘These are not my wife’s’ and the other with ‘Nibble my nuts’.

The charity range is available from the Budgy Smugglers UK website, with the description: ‘Wrap a bit of the Australian Jungle around you and dive right in’.
‘Made in Australia, Inspired by Mike,’ it adds.
Mike has previously opened up about the heartbreaking effect Parkinson’s disease has had on his father, who was diagnosed in 2003.
Parkinson’s disease is a condition in which parts of the brain become progressively damaged over many years, according to the NHS website.
Mike narrowly missed out on a place in Sunday night’s I’m A Celebrity final after becoming the eighth contestant eliminated from the ITV show on Saturday.

Following his appearance on the reality series, he joked that he plans to ‘bashfully hide away’ at his next family gathering after amusing his campmates with a story of him splitting his trousers in front of his mother-in-law, the Princess Royal.
Avid fans will remember how Mike told his I’m A Celebrity co-stars about the incident, which occurred on the dance floor at his wife Zara’s 70s-themed 30th birthday party, prompting much laughter.
Appearing on Good Morning Britain on Monday, he addressed whether he knew how many members of the royal family had been watching him.
‘No, I don’t right now but I’m sure I’ll find out at some point, Christmas is around the corner,’ he told the programme.
‘We will see if some interesting gifts come underneath that tree. I don’t know. There’s some sense of humour kicking around in the family. So yeah, I’ll wait for some interesting gifts and see how many people were watching.’

Asked whether he knew if the Princess Royal had watched him recall his trouser-splitting incident on national TV, he replied: ‘No, I don’t think she was watching but I think Zara might have told her.
‘But I’m pretty sure it’s probably etched into her memory banks for all the wrong reasons. So yeah, I’ll probably bashfully hide away from that one.’
I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! is available to stream on ITV Hub.
