In a heartfelt message on social media, Prince William has made his first personal post since his wife Kate Middleton's recent cancer treatment announcement. The Duke of Cambridge took to X, formerly Twitter, and Instagram Stories to congratulate Rachel Daly on her retirement from international soccer.

Reposting a photo from Daly's account, Prince William wrote, "Thank you for so many unforgettable performances with @Lionesses, @RachelDaly3. Plenty more goals for Villa now!" The reference to Villa indicates Daly's plan to continue playing at the club level with Aston Villa.

According to People, Prince William and Middleton are taking some time for themselves and their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, during their school break. Middleton's video announcement last month revealed she had been diagnosed with cancer following a planned abdominal surgery earlier this year. She expressed gratitude for the support they had received as a family while they managed the situation privately.

During Middleton's absence from public life, rumors and speculations about her health began to circulate. Prince William continued to fulfill his royal duties and attended various public events. In addition to his official engagements, the prince is known for his involvement in soccer. He has been the president of The Football Association (The FA), the governing body of soccer in England, since 2006.

People noted that Prince William is a passionate supporter of Aston Villa and often attends matches with his children. In a touching gesture last year, he and Princess Charlotte shared a video on the family's social media, wishing the Lioness team good luck in the Women's World Cup. The prince had expressed his regret at being unable to attend the team's final match.

Prince William's return to social media marks a touching moment, as he takes the time to acknowledge the accomplishments of Rachel Daly while supporting his wife and children through a challenging period. The Duke of Cambridge's message to Daly not only shows his love for soccer but also his continuous commitment to promoting the sport in the country.

As Middleton continues her treatment, the royal family's unity and resilience serve as an inspiration to many, reminding us of the importance of support and understanding during difficult times.
