Prince William received an unexpected request at the end of a particularly emotional day.
The future king, who played in the Europa League final in Turkey on Wednesday, was in tears as his favorite team, Aston Villa, scored their first cup win in three decades. William had been a fan of the team since childhood, so it had been a special moment for him.
William had forgotten that he was the heir to the throne for a while, given his reaction, but the team didn’t. One of the players, John McGinn, revealed that the Prince of Wales visited them in the dressing room before the match.
John called him the “classy” and “normal guy” who is a “big fan” of the team.
After their big victory and the presentation of the trophy, John revealed his bold plans to make the future King of England foot the bill for their celebrations.
“It’s great to have his support and I hope it continues and tonight he can have a few drinks with us and maybe take out his credit card at the end of the night!” he said TNT.
It’s safe to assume that the afterparty would have been a massive (and expensive) celebration with all the players and staff coming together to commemorate the victory. However, even if William were to take out his credit card, he could easily pay the bill given his net worth.
