The actor stated that it is not possible for William, who holds the title of Prince of Wales, to openly and publicly support the England national team for the World Cup in Qatar.
He can, of course, support whoever he likes and as Pres of FA his role makes visiting understandable – but surely he sees holding the title Prince of Wales at the same time is entirely inappropriate? Not a shred of embarrassment? Or sensitivity to the problem here? #PrinceofWales https://t.co/Hoanq9snXt

“He can, of course, support whoever he wants and, as chairman of the FA, his role makes the visit understandable, but he certainly sees that holding the title of Prince of Wales at the same time is completely inappropriate. Not one shred of shame or sensitivity on the matter?” Shin wrote.
The actor’s comment garnered positive reactions. One user replied: “He’s English, he can support England. In fact, he can support anyone he wants. However, this title is reprehensible: it implies national subjugation, it must be stopped. He is “Prince of Wales” because his father gave him the title. It means literally nothing else, get it over with.”

Another wrote: “William is English and should be proud to support England. There is no problem or bitterness with it. He doesn’t need to support Wales out of obligation.”
Wales and England will meet in Qatar. For Sheen, Prince William’s support for England is completely insensitive. William, while saying goodbye to the England team, told them: “The country is with you, we are all cheering you on. Enjoy”.
The two teams meet in the group stage on Tuesday, November 29.
Another Twitter user wrote: “I have to say I agree. I’m a fan of his, but he can’t close his ears in his new role. If he is Prince of Wales he cannot support an opponent in the world competition. Its a shame”.
