Prince William pulled a major Princess Diana move. The Prince of Wales, 42, took he and Kate Middleton ’s two oldest children, Prince George , 10, and Princess Charlotte , 9, to Taylor Swift’s Eras tour in June 2024. Not only did they dance to the Grammy winner’s hits, but the royals met Swift backstage.

For a royal commentator, the “dream come true” evening drew major parallels to a special moment during William’s childhood. William introduced George and Charlotte to Taylor Swift backstage at the Eras concert Swift, who is known not to do meet-and-greets on her Eras tour made an exception on June 21, 2024, the day William turned 42. She spent some time with William, George, and Charlotte backstage at London, England’s Wembley Stadium.

William and Swift had met years earlier at a charity event, but George and Charlotte were meeting the “Fortnight” singer for the first time. Although reportedly “running really late” to meet Swift, the royals managed to snap some photos with Swift and meet her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce, 25 minutes before she took the stage (via Hello! ). The royals were ‘living their best lives’ at Swift’s London concert “It’s been a really, really tough six months for the Wales family, but it does seem like things are looking up,” Jack Royston, a royal commentator, said on “The Royal Report” podcast (via Newsweek ).

He went on to say they’ve “come out of the darkness” with the arrival of warme.
