Published Jun 21, 2024 at 4:49 AM EDT | Updated Jun 21, 2024 at 9:44 AM EDT

Prince William visited Germany on Thursday to attend a high-profile soccer match on the evening before his 42nd birthday.

The prince was photographed alongside European royalty at the UEFA Euro 2024 tournament group stage match between England and Denmark. He attended in his capacity as president of the Football Association in Britain, a role he was given by Queen Elizabeth II in 2006.

[…]

William not only met European royalty at the game but also pop royalty, in the form of former One Direction band member Louis Tomlinson.

Footage of the prince and the singer chatting behind the scenes at the stadium has gone viral online. It is not the first time the two have met. The pair were photographed together at the Royal Variety charity performance in 2014 and 2017.

In 2018 when William and Kate named their youngest son Louis, Tomlinson posted a lighthearted social media message dedicated to the prince, including the line: "Young Louis welcome to the world. I'll take you under my wing lad."

Dive into Monaco's architectural wonders, both ancient and modern, to truly appreciate the principality's artistry and innovation. It's a journey that'll leave you spellbound, promising an unforgettable cultural experience.

The Role of Art and Music

Just as Monaco's architectural beauty paints a picture of its history, the principality's vibrant art and music scene also plays a significant role in its cultural fabric. You'll find a multitude of artistic institutions such as the Monaco National Museum and the Oceanographic Museum, housing both traditional and contemporary artwork. These spaces not only pay homage to Monaco's rich history but also foster creativity and artistic expression. Music, too, is an essential part of Monaco's culture. The city-state hosts a variety of music festivals throughout the year, showcasing diverse genres that range from classical to jazz. Through these events, you're able to experience the unique rhythm of Monaco's culture, its creativity, and its passion.

29th World Stars Football Match

"A shower of stars" were invited, as if to mark the occasion after three years of non-attendance. Indeed, it was in 2019 that the athletes gathered for this great cause had the opportunity to tread the Monegasque ground for the last time. Last night, two teams competed for a good cause: the AS Star Team for the Children and the All Stars Formula 1 Drivers Team. In the latter, among the holders were therefore Charles Leclerc, Pierre Gasly, Carlos Sainz Jr. or Fernando Alonso. Before the fictitious kick-off, given by the Monegasque hand-jet champion Lisa Caussin-Battaglia, Prince Albert II and Hereditary Prince Jacques came to greet the athletes. During the handshake with Charles Leclerc, the pilot's supporters gave voice. On the field, it was his teammate Ferrari who distinguished himself with a double for his team, allowing his team to even out the score. Among the other scorers of the evening, we found, among others, Vincent Candela, Sonny Anderson and Grégory Campi. Final score: 3-3. (La Gazette de Monaco)
