Prince William has explained why he supports England in international football - but said he will be cheering on Wales as well during the World Cup.
During a visit to the Senedd, the Prince of Wales was shown a bucket hat by Llywydd Elin Jones and asked about his allegiance in the upcoming World Cup. He had previously come in for criticism for telling the England team, "I’m really here to point out that the rest of the country is behind you. We are all rooting for you, enjoy it.”
Michael Sheen has said that the message was "entirely inappropriate" and questioned why Prince William had not "a shred of embarrassment or sensitivity" to the controversial nature of his message given his title as Prince of Wales. The Welsh team will play England in the group stage of the World Cup as rivals.
