William and Kate to cheer on rival teams at Wales v England Six Nations game

The Prince and Princess of Wales are to attend the Wales v England Six Nations match this weekend.

William and Kate will be cheering on opposing sides at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on Saturday.

The prince is patron of the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU), while the princess is patron of the Rugby Football Union (RFU).

The famously competitive couple have previously joked about supporting different teams during the tournament, with William supporting Wales and Kate rooting for England.

In 2023, William remarked it would be a “tense journey home” with his wife after a Six Nations Wales v England match in Cardiff.

Kate is gradually returning to public duties after revealing she is in remission from cancer.

She also has an engagement with the Irish Guards on St Patrick’s Day in London on Monday.

Before the match, the couple will meet injured players, who have been supported by the Welsh Rugby Charitable Trust, inside the Sir Tasker Watkins Suite – a space dedicated for use by the players and their families ahead of games.

William is patron of the trust which was set up to help players who have been severely injured while playing rugby football in Wales, and their loved ones, inviting them to every Wales home game and hosting an annual family day.
