Duke and Duchess of Cambridge to attend Six Nations match in Paris
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are set to watch Wales' Six Nations match against France on March 18.
The royal duo will cheer on Alun Wyn Jones' side in the French capital as they complete their two-day trip to Paris next week, which will also see them meet people impacted by recent terror attacks in the country.
Meanwhile, Prince Harry, the younger brother of Prince William, is poised to attend the England versus Scotland Six Nations rugby match at Twickenham Stadium in London this Saturday (11.03.17).
The flame-haired royal is a long-time follower of the England national team and will be among the passionate home support for their all-important clash against their eternal rivals this weekend.
Confirming his attendance at the game, a post on the official Kensington Palace Twitter read: "Prince Harry, patron of @EnglandRugby, will attend #RBS6Nations England vs Scotland match at Twickenham on Saturday #ENGvSCO (sic)" Prince Harry is, in fact, also a patron of the Rugby Football League and Greg Mulholland, the Group Chairman and Member of Parliament for Leeds North West MP, was thrilled by his appointment last year.
He said at the time: "Prince Harry is a huge fan of sport, and of rugby in particular, and I hope that that he will rekindle the Royal Family's involvement in Rugby League. "Rugby league is a fantastic sport and one that is embedded in local communities, where it is of huge importance to people, and it is also a sport played in towns and cities across the country.
I hope that the Rugby League authorities will be able to work closely with Prince Harry to encourage more young people to play the game, get active and stay healthy."
