This is the first time the royal couple will travel as a family of four to Australia with Mike saying it’s a welcome change from the cold.
“Early January is bleak over here [in their home of Gloucestershire in England] so it’s nice to be able to go and have a bit of sun. I love the lifestyle of Australia and the ability to get up early, go on the beach – especially for the kids,” Mike told The Australian Women’s Weekly January issue.
“I just think the people over in Australia are so laid-back and they have good banter. No one’s worried about talking to each other. It’s not a rushed lifestyle. I think it’s a great place and we enjoy it so much,” Mike added.
Zara was then quizzed as to whether they would consider relocating to Australia for good.
“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.”
Back in October, Mike let slip his adorable and unexpected nickname for his wife of almost a decade.
Speaking to Alex Payne on the House of Rugby podcast, Mike referred to his wife by his pet name for her, which is ‘Zoey’.
