Prince William's emphatic message toChloe Kelly as they shared a hug following England's Euro 2025 victory has been revealed. Both William and Princess Charlotte were in Basel last night to watch as the Lionesses won a nail-biting penalty shoot-out against Spain in order to win the entire tournament.
And after the match, William, who is patron of the Football Association, was on the pitch to congratulate Sarina Wiegman and the rest of her victorious side before they were presented with their medals and Euro trophy. As Wills has got to know the Lionesses well, he dispensed with the usual handshakes for some of the players and instead gave them a well-deserved hug, including to Chloe, who scored England's winning penalty in the shoot-out.

And it seems her incredible penalty was still on the heir to the throne's mind as a lip reader has revealed what he believes William told the striker.

After they hugged and shook hands, professional lip reader Jeremy Freeman believes William told Chloe: "That kick was no nonsense, well done you, honestly, fantastic."
Meanwhile, Jeremy also believes he delivered a special message from Charlotte to England's new star and young player of the tournament, Michelle Agyemang.
He says that William told her: "Michelle, well done, honestly, you played a good tournament, you are so inspirational to Charlotte, well done."
And it seems he was also full of praise for manager Sarina, telling her on her second Euros win with England: "We get to do it again, well done, hey, amazing. Penalties to take it, eh?"
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!"
