Prince William has no plans to travel to Qatar and watch England play in the World Cup, it has been reported.
The Prince of Wales will not travel to the Middle East amid growing concerns over the country’s human rights record, reportedly.
William, who is President of the Football Association, was expected to attend the games next month with England’s first match against Iran on November 21st.
A source close to the future King has told The Sun that he no longer will attend the tournament due to his busy schedule.
Meanwhile, Qatar has received severe backlash for the conditions for stadium workers and the country’s criminalization of same-sex relationships.
It has also been reported that Amnesty International has urged FIFA to pay at least £350 million of compensation to Qatar stadium workers for the ‘human rights abuses’ they have been subjected to.
Prince William, on the other hand, has been an advocate for LGBTQ rights. In 2016, he became the first royal to appear on the cover of gay magazine, Attitude.
William told the magazine at the time, “No one should be bullied for their sexuality.”
