Prince William and Princess Anne look set for a head-to-head clash next week.
Prince William is the Patron of Welsh Rugby and may decide to attend the second game of the Women’s Rugby World Cup tournament, which will take place between Scotland and Wales.
Princess Anne could also opt to attend that match as the Patron of Scottish Rugby, with the royal often seen supporting Scotland’s rugby teams.
The tournament is being hosted in England, so the match would be easily accessible for the royals to attend.
