The Prince of Wales has strongly praised rugby league star Kevin Sinfield, describing the decision to knight him as “the easiest decision anyone’s had to make”.
Prince William also called Sinfield “gold dust” and said he should have been made a knight years ago. His comments recognise Sinfield’s standing and the esteem in which he is held.
