Following the final whistle, William and Charlotte made their way down to the pitch to celebrate with the team and help with the medal presentation.

When striker Michelle Agyemang came up to receive her medal, William reportedly offered her a heartfelt compliment.

“Michelle, well done, honestly, you played a good tournament, you are so inspirational to Charlotte, well done.”

More Praise From Prince William

This wasn’t the first time the 19-year-old striker had spoken with the Prince that evening. Earlier in the night, Michelle had been honored as the Young Player of the Tournament.

While shaking her hand during that moment, William reportedly said:
“Michelle, what did I tell you? I did. What a player, fantastic, well done.”

Jeremy also noted that the Prince had some encouraging words for England’s manager, Sarina Wiegman, after the match.

Meanwhile, body language expert Darren Stanton commented on William’s reactions during the game, suggesting he displayed genuine “raw emotion.”

Speaking on behalf of Genting Casino, Stanton shared:
“I truly think Prince William is a fantastic ambassador for sport, he’s clearly genuinely passionate about it.

“Both he and Kate are competitive by nature. And you can see how completely absorbed he becomes in the moment. There’s a brilliant shot of him with his hands to his face, eyes wide and mouth open, clearly caught up in the tension of the game. That raw emotion on his face shows just how invested he is.”

He added:
“The fact that he gets so emotionally involved in moments like this helps ignite a real sense of pride and national unity.”

Stanton concluded:
“I think that’s part of why people respond to him so strongly. He’s built trust, rapport, and a real connection with the public. And when the time comes, I believe that will make him a very popular king.”
