Buckingham Palace and Kensington Palace are abuzz with excitement as preparations are underway to welcome American pop sensation Taylor Swift.
The recent London leg of her Eras tour at Wembley Stadium was a massive success, and now, Swift is set to meet with Princess Catherine during her stay in the UK.
The royal selfie shared by Taylor Swift at her concert has caused quite a stir, boosting the profile of the Wales on social media.
Despite Princess Catherine’s absence at the concert due to ongoing chemotherapy, she sent her best wishes to Swift, appreciating the joy the pop superstar’s music brings to the royal children.
It was revealed that Swift had personally invited Catherine and William to her concert last year, but the Princess’s health condition prevented her from attending.
However, it seems Swift’s wish to meet Prince William backstage might soon come true, as preparations suggest a possible visit to the royals on his invitation.
While Princess Catherine is known to be a huge fan of Taylor Swift, Prince William also shares the enthusiasm, creating a friendly competition for a photo opportunity with the Grammy-winning artist.
Despite some challenges in meeting Swift at the concert, the selfie taken with the royal family had a significant impact on their Instagram, attracting hundreds of thousands of new followers.
The selfie shared by Taylor Swift featuring Kelsey received a remarkable 9.2 million likes in just two days, while the royals’ post garnered over 200,000 followers, 2.8 million likes, and 20,000 comments within 48 hours.
This meeting between the Wales and Swift marks a significant moment, especially after Taylor’s alleged snub of Prince Harry’s wife in the past.
Following their initial encounter, William and Taylor have reportedly developed a strong bond, with sources indicating a great connection between them.
Taylor’s successful London show, attended by celebrities and British royals, hints at a promising future as she gears up for more performances in the city.
The possibility of Swift visiting the royal palaces with her boyfriend has sparked speculation, given the history she shares with the royal family.
Travis Kelsey, in a podcast discussion, expressed his delight in meeting the royals, praising their charm and warmth.
The NFL player even labeled Prince William as “the coolest,” while highlighting Charlotte’s adorable nature as the standout impression from the encounter.
