As the champions continued their celebrations of the Euro 2025, an estimated 65, 000 fans and royalty gathered in London to watch the triumphant England squad.

After winning back-to-back European titles with a dramatic victory over Spain on Sunday, The Lionesses staged an open-top bus parade along The Mall.

Before circling a stage in front of the Queen Victoria Memorial outside Buckingham Palace, fans lined the route.

Leah Williamson, the captain, said, “I’ve been crying all the way down the Mall.”

“One of the best things we’ve been a part of is unbelievable,” he said.

The decisive penalty in Sunday’s shoot-out was scored by England’s winning goal at 2022, and Chloe Kelly said to the attendant fans, “Pressure, what pressure”?

The 27-year-old Arsenal player then used a expletive to express how special the support for the team has been at home and at the Euros in Switzerland.

You don’t see behind the scenes, but it is so good to stand side by side with each and every one of these girls throughout the entire tournament, and with the staff, she continued. It is incredible.

Sarina Wiegman, England coach, was surprised when her favorite singer Burna Boy joined the squad on stage to perform his hit For My Hand, which Princess Beatrice of York had already seen at the parade.

The Lionesses sang Proud, which became their tournament anthem before and after matches in Switzerland, in Heather Small’s dressing room.
