Taylor Swift has recalled a major issue she ran into when she met Prince William, Prince George<\/a> and Princess Charlotte<\/a> backstage at her Eras Tour show in London.<\/p>\n

In June 2024, the American singer met the royal family<\/a> at Wembley Arena, alongside her football player boyfriend Travis Kelce<\/a> and his brother Jason.<\/p>\n

The Wales’ took a selfie with Taylor backstage before the show, and she posted it to social media with the caption: “Happy Bday M8! London shows are off to a splendid start”. The star tagged Prince William<\/a> in the post, acknowledging his birthday that fell on the same day as the sold-out concert. It comes after Kate Middleton halts her summer break to release new video with emotional statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now one year on from the iconic moment, Taylor, Travis and Jason discussed the royal meeting on the Kelce brother’s New Heights podcast<\/a>, with Swift as the surprise guest on the episode.<\/p>\n

Taylor Swift<\/a> said, as the trio discussed their trip to London: “Wasn’t this the week I got to watch Jason meet the Royal Family? I watched him have this moment with his beer where he was like, ‘But I want to take it, but I know that I probably should not take it’. I watched this happen, and it kind of was the most amazing thing.”<\/p>\n

Jason replied: “I like that you picked up on it because that was exactly what was going through my head.” He then asked: “Is it disrespectful to have a beer when you meet royalty?\u201d<\/p>\n

Taylor Swift replied: “Yeah, or is it authentic by having the beer? I would normally have the beer, wouldn’t they want me to be myself? I’m watching you say that in your head.”<\/p>\n

According to a source at the time, Prince William had a ‘nightmare’<\/u> <\/a>getting into the Wembley show with his children, who added that the family were running late to the gig and almost missed the concert entirely.<\/p>\n

“They had a nightmare getting in, they were running really late but they had planned to get there earlier so they could have the meet and greet with Taylor beforehand because they knew they wanted to leave early,” they told HELLO!<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“They only had 25 minutes to spare so had a quick meet and greet and then went up to their box before the show, and there was a bit of stress and panic about that because it was taking too long.”<\/p>\n

Thankfully, everything fell into place and William and his children were able to meet the superstar before taking their seats in the balcony area. As the concert drew to a close, the royals had to make an early exit, leaving ten minutes before the end of the show to avoid the rush of eager Swifties.<\/p>\n

In the months after the Eras tour show in the UK, Travis Kelce’s mother Donna lifted the lid on her son’s royal meeting, saying how humbling the moment was for her footballer son.<\/p>\n

Donna said: “He said that ‘When you meet people like that, you know when the royals come in or Paul McCartney or Hugh Grant… you’re just like, who in this picture doesn’t fit? Why am I here and why am I even allowed to talk to these individuals? It just doesn’t seem right.'”<\/p>\n
