‘Here’s to celebrating every triumph at Paris 2024 and looking forward to more from ParalympicsGB later in the summer.’

William then adds: ‘Well done on all you’ve achieved, you’ve been an inspiration to us all.’
In a clip packed with a litany of stars sending messages of congratulations, it cuts to ex-footballer David Beckham.
‘Hey Team GB,’ Beckham says. ‘We are so proud of you. Congratulations.’

Snoop Dogg rounded off the video by saying: ‘Thank you Great Britain… on behalf of big Snoop Dogg, the Prince and his lovely wife.’
