The 10-year-old royal travelled to the Stade de Marseille with his father on Saturday.
Prince George travelled to France with the Prince of Wales to cheer on Wales in the rugby but saw the team’s dream of World Cup victory come to an end.
But George – a future Prince of Wales – and father, who is patron of the Welsh Rugby Union, witnessed Wales being knocked out of the tournament with a 29-17 defeat. “Commiserations @WelshRugbyUnion, sorry that it wasn’t to be this year but you can be very proud of all you have achieved and I know you’ll come back even stronger,” he said.
George was the first to be welcomed by Sir Bill, stepping forward to shake the former England rugby player’s hand and say hello.William laughed and chatted with the former England captain, telling him: “Nice to see you. I thought I’d bring George along tonight.” William, who is also patron of the Football Association, was criticised in May for deciding not to attend the historic Women’s World Cup final when England battled Spain in Sydney.
