William and Kate are each patrons of separate—and sometimes opposing—women’s rugby teams, and those teams apparently need well wishes during this season of intense competition. So, in late August, they both posted statements rooting on their teams.
William posted images of three players with the following note, signed with his personal “W”: “Good luck to Wales Women as they kick off their Rugby World Cup campaign against Scotland today!” in both Welsh and English.
However, Catherine wrote, “Wishing the Red Roses the very best as they kick off their Women’s Rugby World Cup campaign tonight. I look forward to cheering you on and seeing the team rise to the challenge on home soil!” She signed it off simply with her signature “C.”
