It\u2019s no secret that the Prince of Wales is a devoted soccer fan, having supported Aston Villa for most of his life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has previously spoken to the BBC<\/a> about his admiration for the club, saying: \u201cAston Villa has always had a great history. I have friends who support Villa, and one <\/em>of the first FA Cup games I attended was Bolton vs. Aston Villa back in 2000.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given his long-standing loyalty, it\u2019s not a surprise to Villa supporters when the prince is spotted cheering on his team from the stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the years, fans have shown their support for Aston Villa and their most famous royal supporter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But now, the whole country is flooding the royal<\/a> with love after a crowd of fans from an opposing team hurled a brutal four-word chant at him at a recent game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One person writes: \u201cNo need for it, the guy loves soccer and needs respect. Should be allowed to watch in peace.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Somebody else says: \u201cThat\u2019s cruel. He\u2019s a father whose wife has gone through treatment for cancer and his father is still going through treatment, plus being a parent to three children. Have some compassion.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe man was born into his life, the same way we all were, so it doesn\u2019t justify hatred and insult, the same way we don\u2019t like it\u2026\u201d a third user responds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prince William joined thousands of supporters at Villa Park in Birmingham to watch Aston Villa vs Celtic \u2013 a Scottish team \u2013 in a Champions League game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Celtic\u2019s fans bombarded the 42-year-old prince with horrific chants as they realized the royal family member was sitting in the stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is not the first time Celtic fans have hurled abuse towards the family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2022, Celtic was fined for \u2018provocative\u2019 anti-monarchy banners displayed by fans at a Champions League match held less than a week after Queen Elizabeth II\u2019s death, per ESPN<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The crowd held up banners with \u2018F*** the crown,\u2019 and \u2018Sorry For Your Loss Michael Fagan.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This references an incident in which a man broke into Buckingham Palace and entered Queen Elizabeth II\u2019s bedroom, just days after Prince William was born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was one of the most high-profile royal security breaches in history, and Fagan was diagnosed with schizophrenia by doctors after the break-in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Scottish champions were fined 15,000 euros by UEFA\u2019s control, ethics, and disciplinary body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the previous punishments, it did not encourage Celtics fans to keep their behavior respectful at the recent match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The opposition fans held up banners referring to Michael Fagan again, along with chanting: \u201cIf you hate the royal family clap your hands.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MailOnline<\/a> reports that the crowd also engaged in songs about the queen and Prince Harry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another disturbing chant was \u2018Lizzie\u2019s in a box,\u2019 referencing his grandmother, the late Queen Elizabeth II.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In response to the Celtics fan\u2019s abuse, Villa supporters proudly held up Union Jack flags whilst singing the national anthem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the hurls of abuse from the opposition, Prince William and the rest of the fans left the game victorious winning 4-2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
