Princess of Wales praised for thoughtful nod to both teams
Catherine has won admiration for a meaningful gesture during her latest public appearance, earning a new affectionate title from royal fans.
The Prince and Princess of Wales attended the Six Nations rugby match between England and Wales at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, a friendly yet symbolic rivalry between the couple. Catherine, patron of England Rugby, and William, patron of the Welsh Rugby Union, were seen engaging with injured players supported by the Welsh Rugby Charitable Trust before watching the match.
However, royal watchers quickly noticed a subtle but significant detail—Catherine wore a dual friendship pin, honouring both teams despite her patronage of England Rugby.
A fan page highlighted the moment, sharing, “[She] was wearing a dual friendship pin at the England vs Wales @SixNationsRugby today. Even though she is patron of @EnglandRugby, she still gave a nod to Wales as she is The Princess of Wales.”
Catherine’s thoughtful move won over supporters, who affectionately dubbed her the “Princess of Details” in recognition of her attention to meaningful gestures.
