It's no secret that the Royals are big fans of football, often spotted in the stands at matches. But have you ever wondered which teams they support? With Prince William set to attend the England v Denmark match tomorrow, The Agency has put together a list of all the football teams that the Royal family cheers for.
As the president of the FA, Prince William will be heading to Frankfurt Arena on June 20 to show his support for England. But let's not forget about the other teams that the Royal family holds dear to their hearts.
King Charles, for example, may come as a surprise to many as he revealed back in 2012 that he is a fan of Burnley. When asked about his allegiance to the Clarets, he explained that he wants to help regenerate and raise aspirations in that part of the world. In response, the Lancashire club even offered him a VIP season ticket.
Meanwhile, Prince William is a well-known Aston Villa supporter, even bringing his children Prince George and Princess Charlotte to cheer on the team. He shared that he got into football during his school days and wanted a team that could give him more emotional rollercoaster moments. And with Aston Villa's rich history, it was the perfect fit.
Princess Kate, on the other hand, supports a rather popular London team - Chelsea. It was revealed during a charity event in 2015 that she is a Chelsea supporter, much to the delight of a young fan who got to high-five her. Many expected her to support Aston Villa like her husband, but it seems she had other plans.
As for Queen Elizabeth II, her football alliances have always been a mystery. While it's been rumored that she supports Arsenal FC, there have also been claims that she is secretly a West Ham fan. In a speech, Jeremy Corbyn once mentioned that locals believe she is a "Gooner" (Arsenal fan), but The Daily Mirror reported that Buckingham Palace staff were shocked when she revealed her love for West Ham. To this day, it remains unknown which team she truly supports.
And it's not just the immediate Royal family that loves football. Mike Tindall, who married into the family, supports Leeds United, his hometown team. And Princess Beatrice, daughter of Prince Andrew and Lady Sarah, reportedly supports Manchester City. She first started rooting for the team while training for the London Marathon.
So there you have it, a breakdown of the football teams loved by the Royals. From surprise choices to popular picks, it's clear that football runs in the blood of the Royal family.
