Prince William and Princess Charlotte are rooting for their team!
The royals posted a video message in support of the England women’s soccer team – nicknamed ‘the Lionesses’ – Sunday ahead of their Euro 2020 final match against Germany.
“We both want to wish the lionesses the best of luck tonight, you’ve done amazingly well in the competition and we’re rooting for you all the way!’ Willam said before Charlotte added “Good luck! I hope you win. Bye!’
The caption on the post read “Good luck tonight @Lionesses, we’re all cheering for you!”
William, 40, is president of England soccer’s governing body the Football Association and is a regular visitor to matches, most notably alongside Prince George, 9, and Kate Middleton, 40, at the men’s Euro 2020 games last summer.

Charlotte, 7, is also a “budding star” in soccer, her dad recently revealed, and has previously joined her family at matches featuring Aston Villa, William’s favorite team.
Prince William also passed on a message to the Lionesses from his daughter when he joined them for practice last month.
“Charlotte wanted me to tell you that she is really good at goal,” William said. “She said, ‘Please tell them that.’ She’s a budding star for the future.”
Prince William also returned home from the outing with special gifts for his children: personalized jerseys featuring their ages as numbers!
Prince William shared his congratulations to the Lionesses via Twitter earlier this week for earning their spot in the Euro 2020 final with a 4-0 victory over Sweden.

“Congratulations @Lionesses on making it to the #WEURO2022 final on Sunday. The entire country is so proud of everything you’re achieving. We believe in you and will be with you all the way!” William wrote, signing off with a “W” to indicate the personal nature of the message.
