The early evening kickoff of 5 p.m. London time made it a perfect after-school outing forPrince George. After the trio said hello to British soccer star David Beckham, who attended William and Kate’s royal wedding in 2011 with wife Victoria, George was spotted singing the national anthem with his parents before the game started. Singer Ed Sheeran was also in attendance, sitting a few rows behind the royals.

It’s thought to be the first time George has watched the England national team live. However, he and younger sisterPrincess Charlotte, 6, were treated to a game in October 2019 when William’s favorite club team, Aston Villa, played Norwich. The family (especially George!) was pictured cheering as Villa came out victorious.
