Zara and Mike Tindall like splashing out on high-tech gadgets.
Queen Elizabeth's granddaughter and her rugby player husband enjoy state-of-the-art equipment in their house and always make sure they have the latest phones, Mike has revealed.
He told the Sunday Times newspaper: "I like TVs, sound systems, and a nice cinema room where it's all wired in properly. We always upgrade quickly with tablets and smartphones."
While the couple enjoy the finer things in life, Mike, 35, insists family comes first and he is doing his best to ensure a secure financial future for the couple's six-month-old daughter Mia.
Quizzed about his financial priorities, he explained: 'Family, making sure we're all right for the future. We've just had Mia, so school fees come into it, college, a wedding."
The rugby pro admits he's very conscious over his money and has avoided using a credit card until recently.
Mike added: "I am very conscious about money, spending only what I have. That was always the way when I started professional rugby. Then again, if I know the money is there, I like to enjoy myself."

According to HELLO! magazine, Novak, 27, began the conversation with the royals by thanking them for watching his hard-fought tennis match against Roger Federer.

Britain's Prince Charles hasn't apologised for calling a royal correspondent "awful".
Nicholas Witchell, 60, was infamously blasted by the 65-year-old royal in 2005, a week before Charles' wedding to Duchess Camilla, and the BBC reporter admits the royal remains unapologetic.
Nicholas quizzed the Prince of Wales about his impending marriage at a press conference in the Swiss ski resort of Klosters but the question didn't go over well with the royal, who muttered under his breath that he "can't bear that man. I mean, he's so awful".
The royal correspondent told the Independent newspaper: "There has never been an apology, and why should there be? He was probably quite right. You know, awful man.
"You could take the view it was the best thing that happened to me, because it showed that it is our job as BBC journalists to report fairly and accurately, but not to seek approval. We're not there to be liked."
Rather than take offence to the royal, Nicholas has praised Prince Charles' work ethic.
He added: "He works terribly hard. There are all sorts of views about what he does, but it has to be said that he has attempted to make the most of his position as heir to the throne and do positive things. The Prince's Trust. Even the environment, which he's rather obsessed with."
