According to Hello!, while chatting with local kids at a youth forum hosted by Street Soccer Scotland, with a mission of teaching positive change through football, William revealed that Louis doesn't have one favorite football team...but five.
One member of the Youth Forum at Edinburgh City Council Chambers, named Erin, 9, gifted the Prince of Wales an Aston Villa poster, since the royal famously supports the team. The conversation then turned to Prince Louis, and who the youngest of William's three children roots for: "My youngest at the moment says he supports five different football teams."

The prince continued to qualify his son's wide-ranging allegiance: “I have to be careful what I say...My son Louis has started to come out with my friends at school are all supporting this team [sic]. I said you can support who you want, but I do like Aston Villa just to give you a hint.”
Another Aston Villa fan? Louis's older brother, George. We love a family that can get on despite their heated rivalries.
Beyond, soccer football, the royal visit saw Prince William launch a new initiative between his Royal Foundation and Street Soccer Scotland, which will focus on using sports to boost mental health and community engagement.
To that we say, goal!
