George cries out for England and Harry (Kane)
WILLIAM and Kate joined the nation in celebrating England’s victory – with football-mad Prince George between them.
Minutes after the end of the match, the couple tweeted a picture of themselves celebrating at Wembley on their KensingtonRoyal Twitter account.
They wrote: “Incredible performance @England.”
Little George was grinning from ear-to-ear despite being forced to watch the match in a smart suit rather than his England strip.
The seven-year-old royal was dressed in a navy blue jacket, shirt and striped official England FA tie, similar to his father William, who is president of the FA.
George’s trip to the football was an after-school treat minus his younger siblings.
He stood between the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge in the first row of the royal box as they sang the national anthem before the kick off.
George, however, remained mute and appeared a little distracted – gazing at the sky instead – prompting a lot of mirth on social media. One Twitter user joked: “Absolutely love how Prince George, who is literally related to the woman the song is about, couldn’t care less to sing the national anthem.”
It is also thought to be Kate’s first time watching an England men’s football international in person. Wearing a red £59.99 Zara blazer and a white top, she leaned in to speak to her son as they concentrated on the action. Afterwards William had a chat with England legend David Beckham, who was seated nearby with singer Ed Sheeran.
The prince had travelled back from Scotland for the match, after visiting a shipyard where HMS Glasgow is being built.
The family support Aston Villa and George was pictured enthusiastically celebrating a 5-1 Villa win with his family in 2019.
