A Royal Presence at the Women’s Euros Final
Prince William, in his role as patron of the Football Association, was all smiles as he watched the nail-biting UEFA Women’s Euro 2025 final between Spain and England. As the Lionesses celebrated their historic win, the Prince of Wales took part in the medal and trophy presentation, warmly greeting the players, including standout star Chloe Kelly.

According to Hickling, Prince William told Chloe Kelly with a grin, “I knew you’d kick it in the net,” and quickly followed it up by saying, “I’m so proud.” It was a genuine, joyful moment that reflected the Prince’s passion for the sport and pride in England’s team.
