Sarah Ferguson has appeared to correct a blunder form King Charles in her message to the Lionesses as they take on Spain in the Euros final.
Fans had expressed frustration as the Royal Family’s good luck message appeared to omit player Michelle Agyemang from the post.

Fergie featured Michelle Agyemang in her message to the Lionesses
Agyemang, 19, has played an instrumental role in England’s progress through the knockout rounds.
She slotted home an 81st-minute equaliser in the quarter-final against Sweden to send the match to extra time and penalties.
The 19-year-old once again became the nation’s hero in the semi-final, scoring a dramatic 96th-minute leveller against Italy.
Despite Agyemang’s achievements, the forward could not be seen on the graphic that also featured players who had yet to play during the tournament.

Agyemang has been instrumental to the Lionesses Euros campaign
In her own message to the Lionesses, Fergie appeared to make amends for the error by prominently featuring Agyemang in the social media post.
“Michelle Agyemang and Chloe Kelly, wow,” Fergie began in narration of her post, which showed a montage of the Lionesses campaign so far.
The 19-year-old featured heavily in the compilation, as one might expect given her prominence in the tournament.
Fergie’s narration continued: “Your teamwork in the last match, all the Lionesses, the entire team. You are incredible!”
“You are an inspiration, you’re magical and you’re just going to rock it tomorrow.
“You show such bravery, courage and it’s just extortionary. Wow,” her emotional tribute continued.
“Good luck tomorrow and.. It’s just exciting to watch. Oh amazing, well done,” she concluded.
The King and the Royal Family initial message read: “My wife and I join all our family in wishing you, the proud Lionesses, our warmest congratulations on reaching the final of the U.E.F.A EURO tournament.
“Your journey to this stage has been nothing short of remarkable, showcasing the skill, determination (and test of nerve!) for which your team is so rightly celebrated.
“Knowing the Lionesses’ fighting spirit, I suspect we are in for another thrilling encounter on Sunday.
“Your achievements continue to inspire countless girls and women across the nation, proving once again that with dedication and teamwork, anything is possible.
“Good luck, England. May you roar to victory once more,” the message concluded.
