The games kicked off August 28 back in Paris and will run until September 8. According to NP R , Paralympians will compete in 549 events across 22 sports. It’s an exciting time for the world to come together and cheer on some incredible athletes.

The Royals Are Excited For The Paralympic Games

Both Prince William and Princess Kate shared their support of Team Great Britain on social media.

The couple posted on X, “Looking forward to another few weeks of incredible sport! Wishing the very best of luck to our @ParalympicsGB athletes and those competing at #Paris2024.” The message was signed with their first initials, “W & C.”

Prince Edward chose the Royal Family’s official Instagram and X pages to share his excitement for the games.

“To all members of the @ParalympicsGB team heading for Paris, whether athletes, officials or staff, I want to wish you the very best of luck at the Paralympic Games,” he wrote.
