On Tuesday, the Prince of Wales, 41, posted a tribute to Welsh rugby legend JPR Williams, who died on Monday at age 74.

There was no one quite like him on the rugby field.

A true @WelshRugbyUnion great, my thoughts are with JPR Williams’ family and friends,” Prince William wrote in English and Welsh on X on Tuesday, which is his wife’s remembered “his fearlessness and swashbuckling attacking style” on the field in the 1970s, where he played for Wales and the British Lions at the international level during the “golden era” of Welsh rugby.

There was no one quite like him on the rugby field Monday, the Williams family said, “JPR died peacefully today at the University Hospital of Wales surrounded by his loving wife and four children, after a short illness, bravely battling bacterial meningitis. The family request privacy at this difficult time

Prince William often uses the official X (formerly Twitter) account he shares with Princess Kate to comment on breaking news in the British sports world, and he’s long been linked to the Welsh Rugby Union.
