Prince William’s comments to striker Chloe Kelly after the Euros 2025 have been revealed
Prince William’s firm message to Chloe Kelly as they shared a hug after England won the Euro’s 2025 has been revealed. Both William and his daughter Princess Charlotte were in Basel over the weekend as they watched the Lionesses win a nail-biting penalty shoot-out against Spain, in order to win the whole tournament.
William, who is the patron of the Football Association, was on the pitch after the match to congratulate Sarina Wiegman and the whole England squad before they were presented with their medals and Euro trophy.
William has got to know the Lionesses over the years, and instead of giving the usual handshakes he instead gave some players a well-deserved hug, including Chloe, who scored England’s winning penalty in the shoot-out, the Mirror reports.
And it seems her incredible penalty was still on the Prince of Wales’s mind as a lip reader has revealed the words he believes was exchanged between the heir to the throne and the striker.
Professional lip reader Jeremy Freeman believes that after they hugged and shook hands, William told Chloe: “That kick was no nonsense, well done you, honestly, fantastic.”
Additionally, Jeremy believes William delivered a special message from Charlotte to Michelle Agyemang, England’s new star and young player of the tournament.
He says that William told her: “Michelle, well done, honestly, you played a good tournament, you are so inspirational to Charlotte, well done.”
The royal was also full of praise for manager Sarina, congratulating her on her second Euros win with England, he said: “We get to do it again, well done, hey, amazing. Penalties to take it, eh?”
After the Lionesses won the tournament, William and Charlotte issued a message to the England team on the Kensington Royal social media accounts.
The father-daughter duo wrote: “What a game! Lionesses, you are the champions of Europe, and we couldn’t be prouder of the whole team. Enjoy this moment, England. W & Charlotte.”
Also congratulating the Lionesses on their win was King Charles, who took to social media and wrote: “This brings you, your manager and all your support team my most heartfelt congratulations on winning the Euros 2025. For more years than I care to remember, England fans have sung that famous chant ‘football’s coming home’.”
“As you return home with the trophy you won at Wembley three years ago, it is a source of great pride that, through sporting skill and awesome teamwork, the Lionesses have made those words ring true. For this, you have my whole family’s warmest appreciation and admiration,” he continued.
“More than that, though, you have shown through your example over the past weeks that there are no setbacks so tough that defeat cannot be transformed into victory, even as the final whistle looms. Well done, Lionesses. The next task is to bring home the World Cup in 2027 if you possibly can!”
