Prince William attends FA cup final without Prince George

Prince William on Saturday arrived  at Wembley Stadium to attend the FA Cup final between Crystal Palace and Manchester City.

According to the local media, the heir to the British throne, who is the patron of the Football Association, was on the field before kickoff.

William and his eldest son Prince George are devoted Aston Villa fans, whose team was defeated by Palace in the semifinals. Prince George did not join his father for the final match on Saturday.

Villa's painful FA Cup exit came less than two weeks after Prince William and Prince George watched on as their team were knocked out of the Champions League.

GB News reported that Prince William and Prince George attended both the first leg in Paris and the second leg in Birmingham of Aston Villa's quarter-final clash with Paris Saint-Germain.

The Prince of Wales attended last season's FA Cup final between Manchester United and Manchester City.
