But the latest initiative launched by the Duke of Cambridge in collaboration with The Football Association, of which he is the president, has left many royal fans stunned - with many believing it strengthens up beliefs William will one day become an “excellent” King. Kensington Palace announced earlier today the launch of Heads Up - The FA For All, a project aiming to use the ever-growing popularity of football in the UK to “change the conversation around mental health”.

One royal fan praised Prince William for his latest effort and added his mother, late Princess Diana, would be proud of what he is doing.

They wrote: “Wonderful initiative. Helping people talk about their feelings and speaking out on their mental health is the next step in making a difference.
