Their shared love of football has seen them chatting happily at various events over the years.
They have a close friendship. England’s greatest footballer has joined the Duke of Edinburgh, who is 39, to raise awareness for mental health issues.
As they stood together for the Euro 2020 crunch match between England & Germany at Wembley Stadium, June, the pair were photographed catching up.
This evening the pair flashed relaxed grins at the camera – before Prince William hailed the “astonishing courage” of two paramedics as he presented the 999 Hero prize.
The Duke of Cambridge described winners Deena Evans and Mick Hipgrave as ‘truly heroic’.
The Central Recorder’s Awards are held every year since 2017 and honor our incredible doctors, nurses, midwives and surgeons as well as volunteers, researchers, and charity workers.
It’s been a difficult year and half fighting through the pandemic. We are grateful to NHS workers.

Posting a clip from the discussion to Instagram, David added in the caption: “Thank you to the Duke of Cambridge for inviting me to join this important conversation ahead of the Heads Up FA Cup final this weekend. @kensingtonroyal #HeadsUp”.

This year Central Recorder teamed up with The National Lottery and NHS Charities Together to put on the awards.
While the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are both Patrons of this charity, the Prince flew solo.
The show will air on Channel 4 Sunday at 7.30pm. It took place at The Camden Roundhouse tonight – with TV legend Davina McAll hosting.
