Grimacing, spitting and disappointment. Prince William and his son George’s rugby night turns into a fiasco.

Contrary to what has been reported, Prince William did not come to the stands alone this Saturday, October 14, at the Velodrome in Marseille. The Prince of Wales was indeed accompanied by his son Prince George, 10 years old. Both took their seats in the stands around 5pm to support Wales in their Rugby World Cup quarter-final against Argentina. Unfortunately for them, their favorite team fell short at the end of a match that saw tensions rise both on the pitch and in the royal stands.

Signs of boredom and lively conversation

Father and son wore matching navy blue suits and red ties for the occasion. Initially very focused on the game, Prince George quickly seemed to allow himself to overcome boredom. Some photographers have noticed her rolling her eyes, sighing and even tilting her head to the side as if she is going to sleep.

It is unclear whether this behavior was condemned by his father, but it is clear that Prince William and George shared a heated exchange afterwards. As noted Page six In his columns, the Prince of Wales was seen waving his hands, and particularly his finger, in his son’s face, with a very serious air, as if lecturing him. The 10-year-old boy in front of him seemed to adopt the classic no-nonsense attitude of a pre-teen.

Convenience in dressing rooms

By the end of the game the incident appeared to be over, but the disappointment of Wales’ defeat was evident on the face of Prince William, but especially his little boy. Then father and son went to the players’ locker rooms to express their support. In photos released by the press, we find the Prince of Wales chatting with the athletes while supporting his visibly distraught son. To take his mind off it, perhaps his mother, Kate Middleton, will offer to accompany him this Sunday, October 15, to attend the England-Fiji match. Hoping that their team will emerge victorious this time.
