The Prince of Wales attended the Wales vs. Fiji Women’s World Cup rugby match in Exeter.
The Prince was on hand to cheer on the Welsh ladies, who lost to Fiji 28-25, in a competitive game.
The heir to the throne also met with the players after the game and gave out some hugs to comfort the losing team.
Kensington Palace later posted on social media, “Commiserations to [the] Welsh Rugby Union. You fought hard and made the nation proud.”
