Overview
- Speaking at his ISPS Handa Celebrity Golf Classic at The Belfry on Friday, Tindall said his father Philip is "not doing great" as Parkinson’s continues to progress.
- He said his father has lived with the condition for more than 23 years since symptoms first appeared around the 2003 Rugby World Cup.
- Tindall said seeing the decline gives him drive to raise money with Cure Parkinson’s, which receives proceeds from the tournament alongside The Matt Hampson Foundation.
- Zara Tindall spent her birthday at the event to support the fundraiser, which drew guests such as actor James Nesbitt and friends from the sports world.
- Parkinson’s is a progressive brain disorder with no cure, and Tindall has previously described early signs in his father like very small handwriting and periods of wheelchair use around the couple’s 2011 wedding.
