Princess Anne has asked her future son-in-law, English rugby captain Mike Tindall, to consider a nose job to straighten his snoz before his royal wedding later in the year.
The 32-year-old union ace, who will marry Zara Phillips in July, has had his nose broken eight times during his 12-year professional career which has left his hooter with an obvious crookedness.
"Princess Anne has asked me if I'd have the surgery. She's a bit worried about how the wedding photos might turn out!" Sunday's News of the World newspaper reported Tindall as saying.
Tindall has undergone nasal surgery before, but spoke with hesitation about again adjusting his conk.
"The last time I had surgery I had two metal plates inserted up my nose to keep it straight," the towering centre said.
"The very next game I was playing ... one of (the opposition) put in a high tackle ... and, crunch! The metal plates popped out onto the pitch. I'm not keen to do it again."
