King Charles III hates soccer despite British traditions

Prince of Wales William revealed in Travis Kelce's podcast the true attitude of his father toward Britain's main game right on the eve of the American athlete's wedding to Taylor Swift

The first in line to the British throne, Prince of Wales William, made a striking admission, stating that his father, King Charles III, harbors a persistent dislike for soccer, despite England's status as the birthplace of the sport. As Oxu.Az reports, the statement came during the prince's appearance on NFL player Travis Kelce's podcast. The episode aired on Friday—just hours before the American athlete's official wedding to pop star Taylor Swift. Responding to a direct question about whether Charles III had instilled a love for soccer in him, William replied bluntly: "Absolutely not. My father hates soccer."

The main topic of the high-profile conversation was the World Cup taking place in North America. It is worth noting that Prince William himself, unlike the monarch, is a passionate and longtime fan. William openly supports the English Premier League club Aston Villa and is a personal admirer of England national team captain Harry Kane, regularly attending key matches.
