Prince William congratulated every single one of England's Lionesses after their epic Euros win - and it seems he couldn't help but talk to one about Princess Charlotte
The Lionesses are said to have inspired an entire generation of girls - and it seems that Princess Charlotte could be among them. That's because, as her dad, Prince William, congratulated the entire team following their epic Euros win, he couldn't help but talk about how Charlotte had been inspired by one player in particular, according to a lip reader.
‌
Charlotte joined her dad in Basel, Switzerland, for the game, with England beating opponents Spain in the final after a tense penalty shoot-out. Following the match, the royal pair made their way pitchside, where William congratulated Sarina Wiegman and their entire squad on their achievement.
‌
‌
And according to professional lip reader Jeremy Freeman, he had a special message for breakout star of the tournament, Michelle Agyemang.
As Michelle approached the Prince of Wales, who is patron of the Football Association, before getting her winners' medal, Jeremy believes William told her: "Michelle, well done, honestly, you played a good tournament, you are so inspirational to Charlotte, well done."
It came just after he spoke with manager Sarina, with Jeremy believing William told her her on her second Euros win with England: "We get to do it again, well done, hey, amazing. Penalties to take it, eh?"
‌
However, it wasn't William and Michelle's first encounter of the evening. Moments earlier, he also shook hands with her as she was named young player of the tournament.
And on that occasion, Jeremy says William told the 19-year-old: "Michelle, what did I tell you? I did. What a player, fantastic, well done."
‌
It came after the Lionesses claimed their victory, William and Charlotte issued a message to the England team on the Kensington Royal social media accounts.
The father-daughter duo wrote: "What a game! Lionesses, you are the champions of Europe, and we couldn't be prouder of the whole team. Enjoy this moment, England. W & Charlotte."
Also applauding the Lionesses on social media was King Charles, who said: 'This brings you, your manager and all your support team my most heartfelt congratulations on winning the Euros 2025. For more years than I care to remember, England fans have sung that famous chant 'football's coming home'.
‌
'As you return home with the trophy you won at Wembley three years ago, it is a source of great pride that, through sporting skill and awesome teamwork, the Lionesses have made those words ring true. "For this, you have my whole family's warmest appreciation and admiration.
'More than that, though, you have shown through your example over the past weeks that there are no setbacks so tough that defeat cannot be transformed into victory, even as the final whistle looms. Well done, Lionesses. The next task is to bring home the World Cup in 2027 if you possibly can!"
