The Princess of Wales has issued a new personal message about an “exciting new chapter” today, setting aside the recent drama revolving around Prince Andrew.
Princess Kate took to her and Prince William’s official Kensington Palace X account to wish the best of luck to England’s rugby team as they prepare to face Australia at Wembley Stadium in the first rugby league Ashes Test in 22 years.

An exciting new chapter for the game begins at Wembley Stadium today. We are all behind you! C.”
