Prince William is already in Belém (PA) where he is participating in the Leaders' Summit this Thursday, the 6th, and Friday, the 7th, on the eve of COP30 , which takes place between November 10th and 21st at Parque da Cidade. During a visit to a museum in the capital of Pará, he was approached by a "little prince," from whom he received a letter.

William visited the Emilio Goeldi Museum, where he was greeted by the press and fans. Right at the entrance, he was approached by Rafael, who was dressed as a prince. He received a letter from the boy and thanked him in Portuguese with a simple "thank you very much".

Images shared on social media show the moment the little boy fulfills his dream of meeting the prince with a resounding "William, I love you." Then, the two captured the unforgettable moment.

In an Instagram post, the prince expressed his gratitude: "Thank you for such a warm welcome in Bethlehem!" William was accompanied by British Prime Minister Keir Starmer. The two met with young activists from the British Council's "Next Generation" program.

The Emílio Goeldi Museum holds special significance for the prince. In 1991, the museum was visited by then-Prince Charles (now King Charles III) and Princess Diana. At the time, the royal couple toured Brazil, including Belém.

The museum received a donation of six automobiles from the British Crown to aid in scientific production. The site houses the country's first Zoobotanical Park, which is over 130 years old.

"The Emílio Goeldi Museum is the oldest in the Amazon and has been a center of science and culture since 1866 – it was incredible to be here to hear the insights of Next Generation Brazil, including the hopes and priorities of the people who are shaping the future of the country," he stated.

The prince landed in Brazil last Monday, the 3rd. In a speech on Wednesday night, the 5th, William attempted a few words in Portuguese during his speech at the 5th edition of the Earthshot award, held at the Museum of Tomorrow in Rio de Janeiro.
