This Tuesday, the heir to the British throne fulfilled a new commitment on his official agenda: the inauguration of two new emergency medical helicopters in London. A fantastic opportunity that he could have taken advantage of to seal peace and publicly reappear with his brother the Prince Harrywhich was a few kilometers from the base, on an express visit to the capital. However, the relationship between the children of Charles III and Lady Di remains distant, practically non-existent, so William of England has been ‘escorted’ by a surprising and charismatic companion: David Beckham.
The former footballer has revealed that it was the prince who asked him to accompany him this Tuesday: “I know what it means to Prince William. The moment he called me and asked if I could be there, I had to hide my emotion because I’m a fan of the work of Air Ambulance Charity in London.”he explained in the London Live newspaper. Dressed in a casual look in a tailored suit and sports shoes, Victoria Beckham’s husband enjoyed the visit with Kate Middleton’s husband, with whom he maintains a close friendship that has strengthened since he broke off his relationship with Harry and Meghan Markle. who accused him, along with Victoria, of leaking information to the press.
In fact, the English press has interpreted this new joint appearance by William and David (after their effusive hug at the last edition of the BAFTA awards) as a new blow against the Duke of Sussex, who has increasingly less support. Exuding complicity and smiles, the prince and the footballer boarded the two new helicopters at the Northolt base, where William, who worked as an emergency pilot in East Anglian and participated in 156 search and rescue operations, explained to his friend how the control panel of the device works. The visit has provided a lot: jokes, anecdotes, curiosities, selfies with the team and even autographs in the helicopters.
