Soccer fever! Whenever World Cup season begins, fans become glued to their TVs to see which country will win the coveted title \u2014 while many stars get inspired to lace up their cleats and join in on the fun at home.<\/p>\n

Everyone from Justin Bieber<\/strong><\/a> and Kendra Wilkinson<\/strong><\/a> to Niall Horan<\/strong><\/a> and Will Ferrell<\/strong><\/a> have shown that they\u2019ll play a pick-up game or two. Some of Hollywood\u2019s biggest stars have also made it clear that they benefit from the tough workout the game offers.<\/p>\n

British royals Prince William<\/strong><\/a> and Prince Harry<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 not to mention King Charles III<\/strong><\/a> and Princess Kate<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 love to sweat it out on the field as well. William and Kate\u2019s kids, Prince George<\/a>, Princess Charlotte<\/a> and Prince Louis<\/a>, are also super fans of the sport.<\/p>\n

\u201cCharlotte wanted me to tell you that she is really good at goal,\u201d the Prince of Wales told England\u2019s national women\u2019s team<\/a> during a June 2022 visit. \u201cShe said, \u2018Please tell them that.\u2019 She\u2019s a budding star for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

One month later, William teamed up with his daughter to share message of support to England\u2019s women\u2019s team as they prepared to play in the UEFA Women\u2019s Euro Final.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cWe both want to wish the Lionesses the best of luck for tonight,\u201d the prince said in an Instagram video<\/a> in July 2022 while sitting beside Charlotte. \u201cYou\u2019ve done amazingly well in the competition and we\u2019re rooting for you all the way.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Cambridges aren\u2019t the only stars who\u2019ve made their love of soccer a family affair. David Beckham<\/strong><\/a>, who retired from the sport in 2013, passed down his passion to his and Victoria Beckham<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s four children: Brooklyn<\/strong><\/a>, Romeo<\/strong><\/a>, Cruz<\/strong><\/a> and Harper<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cSuch a proud moment as my boy @romeobeckham scores his first goal @intermiamicfii \u26bd,\u201d David wrote via Instagram<\/a> after Romeo made his debut Inter Miami CF II goal<\/a> in July 2022. \u201cGreat free kick mate, more goals to come \ud83d\udd25.\u201d<\/p>\n

Romeo, for his part, celebrated his first professional season<\/a> with the Florida-based team in September 2022.<\/p>\n

\u201cFirst full season was full of ups and downs. Not the ending we as a team wanted but only lessons learned to take into next year,\u201d the model wrote via social media. \u201cLove this team and the journey we are on. Vamos Miami \ud83d\udda4.\u201d<\/p>\n
