England's Euro 2025 triumph over Spain on penalties sparked celebrations among celebrities and the royal family, with David Beckham, Amanda Holden, Alan Carr and Stacey Solomon leading the festivities. Chloe Kelly's winning spot-kick sent the Lionesses to back-to-back European Championship glory, and Ashley James captured the moment on camera.
Amanda Holden and Alan Carr were celebrating together while filming their show, Amanda & Alan's Greek Job, and David Beckham shared his support on Instagram. Stacey Solomon watched nervously from home, filming her children dancing as the team celebrated on TV. Shania Twain posted a photo with England's Leah Williamson, while Peter Andre called the victory "Amazing!"
Princess Charlotte and Prince William presented the trophy to the winning team. Charlotte, alongside her father on the pitch, was seen beaming with pride. In a statement on X, they wrote: "What a game! @Lionesses, you are the champions of Europe and we couldn’t be prouder of the whole team. Enjoy this moment England. W & Charlotte."
King Charles also congratulated the team, saying: "This brings you, your manager and all your support team my most heartfelt congratulations on winning the Euros 2025. For more years than I care to remember, England fans have sung that famous chant ‘football’s coming home’... As you return home with the trophy you won at Wembley three years ago, it is a source of great pride that, through sporting skill and awesome teamwork, the Lionesses have made those words ring true."
Goalkeeper Hannah Hampton was one of the heroes, saving twice in the shootout. She said: "This team is just unbelievable, incredible. We’ve shown throughout the tournament we can come back when we go a goal back. We’ve got that grit, that English blood in us. We never say die, we keep going and we did that today." England needed penalties to beat Sweden in the quarter-finals and extra time against Italy in the semis before another shootout victory in the final.
