Mike was actually sick over himself."When the pair finally called it a night, they were escorted by bodyguards back to Gloucestershire's Gatcombe Park estate, the private country home of Zara's mother Princess Anne where the couple live.(C) BANG Media International

Disappointing behaviour. This couple is usually a wonderful example. I suppose everyone's guilty of a failure in good judgement every now and again.
