During a podcast appearance hosted by NFL stars Travis and Jason Kelce, Prince William shared a candid detail about his father, King Charles III. When the topic of soccer arose, the prince clarified that the King has no interest in the sport. Prince William, a vocal supporter of Aston Villa, confirmed that his father had no influence on his own passion for the game.
The conversation pivoted toward the ongoing World Cup, with the Prince of Wales stating he would travel to the United States to witness the final if England qualifies. The national team is currently advancing through the tournament, with a scheduled matchup against Mexico at Azteca Stadium approaching. Prince William noted he would welcome the chance to meet the Kelce brothers at the championship match should England progress that far.
The discussion also touched upon the 250th anniversary of American independence. When asked by Travis Kelce if he was surprised that the United Kingdom and the United States remain aligned, the prince offered a lighthearted acknowledgment of their long-standing relationship.
