AceShowbiz - Prince William and Kate Middleton beamed in a new video alongside Snoop Dogg and David Beckham to congratulate Team GB athletes on their 65 medals at the 2024 Paris Olympics. In a departure from his usual clean-shaven appearance, William sported a short beard and a Team GB T-shirt as he addressed the competitors with Middleton.

"From all of us watching at home, congratulations to Team GB," Middleton said. "Well done on all you've achieved. You've been an inspiration to us all." William added, "Every athlete showed immense dedication, heart and passion. You made us all so proud!"

The couple's video message came as they remain on vacation with their children. William's bearded look has been a surprise for fans, as he traditionally opts for a clean-shaven face.

Middleton has been absent from some royal events due to her cancer diagnosis, but has gradually remerged in public with appearances at Wimbledon and Trooping the Colour.

The Prince and Princess of Wales's presence in the video congratulating Team GB is a welcome sight, particularly after a year that has seen them maintain a lower profile. Their excitement for the upcoming 2024 Paris Paralympics, which kick off in August, is evident in their message.
