Prince William says he had concerns over Prince George supporting Chelsea before Frank Lampard's return as manager changed the culture at the club.
Lampard was appointed last summer, just his second managerial role after a season with Derby, have retired from playing three years prior as Chelsea's all-time appearance-maker.
The Duke of Cambridge is an Aston Villa fan but told 'That Peter Crouch Podcast' that Prince George is free to choose his own team.
Prince William said: "I'm trying not to persuade him to be a Villa fan, I'm letting him choose his own way. It's about finding what fits for him.
"Previously I was a bit concerned about him supporting Chelsea, but now Frank's come in I feel the culture’s a bit different at Chelsea and I'd be OK with it.
"I do like the values and the ethos of the club. I want them to look after the players and set a good example to the young fans.
"I want our children, when they go the match, to come away loving what they've seen, enjoying it and seeing their role models behave in a way that we’d all want them to."
