Prince George has been pictured alongside his dad Prince William at the Euro 2024 final between England and Spain tonight.

The 10-year-old was seen in the stands at the Olympiastadion in Berlin, Germany, for the showdown.

Dressed in an identical suit to his father, he sang the national anthem next to Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.

It marks George’s latest outing in a spree of recent public appearances as the Three Lions aim to bring football home for the first time in 58 years. 

He also cracked a smile as he shared a few words with the PM.

This isn’t the first time he’s cheered on England at a Euros final, having also been spotted celebrating wildly when Luke Shaw scored against Italy in Euro 2020.

On that occasion, he was attending alongside both William and his mum Kate Middleton.

However, the Princess of Wales was on royal duties for only the second time since her cancer diagnosis as she presented the trophy at the Wimbledon men’s tennis final earlier.

George’s busy recent calendar included meeting Taylor Swift at her concert at Wembley Stadium at the end of June.

The prince and his sister, Princess Charlotte, nine, joined William in smiling for a backstage selfie with the US singer to celebrate their father’s 42nd birthday.

Swift’s boyfriend, American footballer Travis Kelce, said the royal children were ‘an absolute delight’.

Only a week earlier, the young prince joined other members of the royal family on the balcony of Buckingham Palace to celebrate the King’s official birthday.

George smiled and waved to thousands of well-wishers as Kate made her first public appearance since announcing her cancer diagnosis earlier this year.

The prince had earlier joined his mother, sister and six-year-old brother Prince Louis in a carriage as they travelled down The Mall for the traditional Trooping the Colour ceremony.

In May, George and his father presented the FA cup to winners Manchester United at Wembley.

Both royals shook hands with both teams as they collected their runners-up and winners’ medals respectively.

George could be seen exchanging a few words with Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola as the latter walked past.

He also spoke briefly with former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson following the full-time whistle.

William is president of the Football Association and a passionate Aston Villa fan, and has taken George to the club’s matches on multiple occasions this year, with the young prince often sporting the team’s scarf.

In April, they watched Aston Villa’s match against Lille in the Europa Conference League quarter-finals – their first public outing since Kate’s cancer diagnosis announcement.
