Twitter going cray between the salty royal watchers that W was completely alone at Wembley's royal/presidential box.  The zoomed in pictures of him alone is the cause. 

Full picture is to his left Boris Johnson and wife, to his right Denmark's royalty; Fred, Mary and son Christian.  Social distancing included the in between (1) protection officer, futher to the sides a load of PO's.  Above the box is the premium seats and suits, James (F1 Maclaren now, with other F1 people)  with wife Pippa and among well known public persons from politicians, A list celebrities like Guy Richie, Ex footballers, etc.

England prepares for the Monday morning after with companies and schools set to open LATER after Sunday's Euros final and even Boris hasn't ruled out a Bank Holiday (if England wins)

[wannable]

Prince William will attend the finals this coming Sunday, Italy vs England.

The Duchess of Cambridge will attend the finals this Saturday (women) and Sunday (men) (Final Sunday play, not Middle Sunday - past Sunday as explained)

The Duchess of Cambridge will attend the finals this Saturday (women) and Sunday (men) (Final Sunday play, not Middle Sunday - past Sunday as explained)

Excellent news! Glad that she went into isolation so quickly and now will be able to attend the finals this weekend. As I recall in 2019 that Edward Kent presented the Ladies trophy and Catherine presented the Men's.

William is reportedly joining her for the Ladies' final but will most likely be at Wembley on Sunday for the Euro Football Final.

The Duchess of Cambridge will finish her covid self isolation period in time to attend the @Wimbledon
Ladies? Singles Final on Saturday and will be accompanied by husband Prince William, @KensingtonRoyal
has announced

In addition, the Duchess of Cambridge will attend the Mens? Singles Final on Sunday. Presumably William will be at Wembley to watch England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 take on Italy 🇮🇹 in the #EURO2020 final in the evening #

22 year old Denis Shapovalov, Canadian is playing now his first ever semi final versus the #1 Novak Djokovic.

I'm sure Shapos fans and all the Canadians are very happy and cheering him like the Canuck ESPN commentator, very animated - I don't mind the bias (although I'm a Djoko fan)

ETA: Tennis fans, pundits and commentators call Denis Shapovalov AKA Shapo, Djokovic has various AKA Djoker, Nole

ETAII: I'm fascinated (via tennis players) Shapo's and most or probably all Canadians are children of immigrants. Shapo speaks French, English, Russian, several Jewish languages (hebrew mostly). His mother is a Jewish Russian immigrant. Shapo was born in Israel, has a double nationality but early on in his sport career chose to represent Canada (once you choose, can't switch countries. My case when an athlete)

Prince William faces a test in Sunday's European football final - CNN

[wannable]

His real test is what will happen with the owners of some of the English clubs that secretly for money wanted to break away and form their own league with a few other European clubs, but with every football fan almost going quasi hooligan strike in the streets of London, Rome, Madrid, backed out.

These individuals are still owners, but will the people forget?!

William promised the FA and the vast majority of UK football fans that he will 'fix' it...the easiest way is to make those individuals sign a lawful commitment of no break away for 30 years minimum.

Wimbledon notice:

''The trophies will be presented on court by Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cambridge, Patron of The All England Lawn Tennis Club.

Her Royal Highness will be accompanied by:

His Royal Highness, The Duke of Kent, President of The All England Lawn Tennis Club''



ESPN Commentator: The trophy will be delivered by the Duchess of Cambridge, President of Wimbledon.  :eyes:  (whilst the TV crew were panning/zooming on her)(Think the ESPN comms is ahead of himself)

Ashley Barty, Australia is 2021 Wimbledon champion, Karolina Pliskova, Czech Republic, Finalist.  :bday:

ESPN Commentator: again referencing Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, adding (new) president.....1) he is giving early information or 2) he is betting on it or 3) got Duke of Kent and Duchess Catherine's official position as of yet ''today'' wrong.  :teehee:
