After a hell-raising stag weekend in Miami, Mike Tindall, left, probably did not expect to arrive back in Britain to a hug from fiancée Zara Phillips.

But the 32-year-old England rugby captain nevertheless grinned for the cameras as he flew into Heathrow this afternoon following a five-day party with 10 friends in the US. The bar bill alone came to more than £12,000 for five hours of drinking.

Meanwhile, Zara was on the other side of London spending time with David Beckham. The former England football captain, 36, joined Princess Anne's daughter in Canary Wharf to start the search for an Olympic torchbearer, sponsored by Samsung.

Tindall and Phillips, 30, are due to marry at Canongate Kirk in Edinburgh in seven weeks.
