Mike Tindall attends emotional reunion with 'heroes' from Rugby World Cup

The heroes from 2003 walked back out onto the turf at the Allianz Stadium at half-time during the England and New Zealand game.

Mike and his squad saluted the fans and lifted the trophy once more.

The squad also want to create a social/commercial brand to encompass a range of support to include mental health and employment help.

Their pathways app will include selling products, raising money through their charity and providing help through a hardship fund.

Ben Cohen, one of the 2003 squad driving a new initiative Championing Champions, said: “This is intended to stop retiring players being left to their own devices.

“When you retire from playing the world is a lonely place that you’re not equipped for.

"You can lose your identity, suffer from depression.

"What we want as the 2003 Rugby World Cup winners is for players to know that they are not on their own.”

Former England rugby player Mike Tindall began dating Zara Phillips, Princess Anne's daughter, in 2003.

The couple met in a bar while watching the Rugby World Cup, where Zara left her number for Mike with his friend.
