Prince William just dropped a powerful message about sports and mental health as he continues his Brazil trip.
The official Instagram handle of the Prince and Princess of Wales shared photos from William’s visit to Rio de Janeiro’s iconic Maracanã Stadium.
Alongside the carousel of photos and video clip, the caption on behalf of Prince William featured a special message.
It read, “Football is so much more than a game.”
The message went on to highlight, “The beautiful game can do beautiful things and community leaders are using the power of sport to create safe, inclusive spaces.”
“Here, young people can build resilience, connect with others, and access vital mental health support,” it continued further.
Moreover, the statement on behalf of the Prince of Wales noted that Football helps to break down barriers and end stigma around mental health.
“On and off the pitch, football breaks down barriers and helps end the stigma around mental health – opening up conversations that change lives. At its best, football connects us to something greater than the game: each other,” it concluded.
The pictures in the post featured Prince William alongside the retired Brazilian professional footballer, Cafu, famously known as one of the greatest of all time.

Inside Andrew, Sarah Ferguson ‘room full of packages’: ‘Daily deliveries’
														
Andrew and Sarah Ferguson are expected to take their sweet time in moving out of the Royal Lodge.
The former Prince and his wife, who are ordered to exit their abode in Windsor by King Charles, have a lot of materials piled up in the mansion.
A source told The Daily Mail: “The Amazon deliveries that go up to Royal lodge are unbelievable. There are rooms full of boxes that haven’t even been opened
“It will take weeks, if not months to shift all their s*** out,” they noted.
This comes as Andrew is tipped to move to UAE after ban from the Royal Lodge.
A worker at one of the UAE palaces told The Sun: “The whole area is private and very secure. The public are not allowed in and there are cameras which log every vehicle which approaches.
“The area is effectively under the radar. We have not heard anything official yet about Andrew moving in but he would enjoy it here because it is very private.”

Cardi B makes game-day debut cheering on boyfriend Stefon Diggs
														
Cardi B made her first in-person appearance at boyfriend Stefon Diggs’ New England Patriots game on Sunday.
The rapper, 33, could be seen proudly cheering him on from the stands at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.
During the game, Cardi sat beside Patriots owner Robert Kraft as cameras repeatedly panned to her throughout the game.
Cardi also took to Instagram with a glimpse of her outfit, calling her look “WAG material” as she was dressed in a merlot Bottega Veneta trench coat, matching gloves, and Hermès Birkin bag.
The Up hitmaker, who’s pregnant with her and Diggs’ first child, also joined in on the fun by mimicking her boyfriend’s touchdown dance, covering her face with one hand and waving the other.
“Nah, she picked it up on her own,” Diggs joked with reporters after the game. “Dance moves are a little shaky though, so I’ll look into that for y’all.”
After the Patriots’ win over the Falcons, the couple celebrated together on the field. “Am I doing it good?” Cardi asked while repeating the move. Diggs laughed, replying, “It’s decent.”
Diggs is Cardi’s first major relationship since her split from Offset, with whom she shares three children: Kulture, 7, Wave, 4, and Blossom, 14 months.

Diane Ladd, Oscar-nominated actress and mother of Laura Dern, dies at 89
														
Diane Ladd, the actress known for her Oscar-nominated roles in “Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore,” “Wild at Heart” and “Rambling Rose,” has died, her representative confirmed to CBS News on Monday. She was 89.
Her daughter, Laura Dern, said in a statement that she was by Ladd’s side when she passed at her home in Ojai, California.
“She was the greatest daughter, mother, grandmother, actress, artist and empathetic spirit that only dreams could have seemingly created,” Dern said. “We were blessed to have her. She is flying with her angels now.”
Dern’s statement didn’t immediately cite a cause of death.
In 2023, the mother and daughter told “CBS Sunday Morning” that the two began taking daily walks in Santa Monica after learning that Ladd had developed a lung disease, believed to be caused by exposure to pesticides. Dern was told her mother only had six months to live.
                                                             Slaven Vlasic / Getty Images                           
              
That’s when the two had conversations that eventually filled the pages of “Honey, Baby, Mine,” their joint memoir named for an old folk song Ladd’s father used to sing. They discussed everything, starting with Ladd’s marriage and divorce from Laura’s father, actor Bruce Dern, to her efforts to discourage Laura from joining the family business.
“She was only, like, 11 years old, and I said, ‘Don’t be an actress. Be a doctor, be a lawyer,'” Ladd said. “Nobody cares if you put on weight or your chin points when you cry if you’re a doctor. They just want you to be the best you can be. But an actress? They care, care, care, care, care.”
But Dern said there was no stopping her from being in movies: “No. It is all I knew.”
                                                             Matt Sayles / AP                           
              
A native of Laurel, Mississippi, Ladd was apparently destined to stand out. In her 2006 memoir, “Spiraling Through the School of Life,” she remembered being told by her great-grandmother that she would one day be in “front of a screen” and would “command” her own audiences.
By the mid-1970s, she had lived out her fate well enough to tell The New York Times that she no longer denied herself the right to call herself great.
“Now I don’t say that,” she said. “I can do Shakespeare, Ibsen, English accents, Irish accents, no accent, stand on my head, tap dance, sing, look 17 or look 70.”
A gifted comic and dramatic performer, Ladd had a long career in television and on stage before breaking through as a film performer in Martin Scorsese’s 1974 release “Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore.” She earned an Oscar nomination for supporting actor for her turn as the acerbic, straight-talking Flo, and went on to appear in dozens of movies over the following decades.
                                                             Kevin Winter / Getty Images                           
              
Her many credits included “Chinatown,” “Primary Colors” and two other movies for which she received best supporting nods, “Wild at Heart” and “Rambling Rose,” both of which co-starred her daughter. She also continued to work in television, with appearances in “ER,” “Touched by an Angel” and “Alice,” the spinoff from “Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore,” among others.
Through marriage and blood relations, Ladd was tied to the arts. Tennessee Williams was a second cousin, and first husband Bruce Dern, Laura’s father, was himself an Academy Award nominee. Ladd and Laura Dern achieved the rare feat of mother-and-daughter nominees for their work in “Rambling Rose.”
