Emmerdale star Dean Andrews’ warning over his Prince William comments

Dean called William a 'top fella'

| Updated:

Emmerdale star Dean Andrews is creating ructions in the Dales this week after Will accused Sam Dingle of pinching his watch.

But in real life the acclaimed actor avoids drama – certainly on social media.

Last summer, he heaped praise on Prince William after the Euro 2022 final last night – and gave his followers a stark warning about trying to come at him with negative views.

The Duke of Cambridge impressed Dean, who has played Will Taylor for almost four years, along with football fans as he didn’t hold back while congratulating England’s Lionesses on their historic win.

What did Emmerdale star Dean Andrews say about Prince William?

Emmerdale star Dean took to Twitter, writing: “Please don’t come back with any Royalist debates when I say ‘I’m a massive fan of Prince William’.

“I’ve been fortunate to be in his company a couple of times and he is a top fella! Again ‘well blooming done the Lionesses’.”

And Dean’s followers on the social media site were – mostly – in agreement about the future king.


One fan gushed: “Omg I loved that he dropped protocol and hugged, fist pumped, shook hands, he read his audience!”

Another agreed, saying: “No debate here, I’ve never had the pleasure of meeting him but he seems to be an honorable man!”

And a third said: “His enthusiasm and genuine pleasure at the end of the game, hugging the girls was great. You could see he was really happy.”

Prince William, along with his wife Kate, also took to Twitter on July 31 to congratulate the Lionesses on their incredible victory.

They wrote: “What a night! Just brilliant” following England’s 2-1 victory over Germany at Wembley.

The Duke, who is the president of the Football Association, presented the team with the Euro trophy after their extra-time goal ensured the historic win.
