That Taylor Swift Selfie Is Helping Prince William and Kate Middleton

Prince William, Princess Charlotte, and Prince George posed for a selfie alongside Taylor Swift at her ‘Eras’ concert in London, England, on June 21, 2024.

Thanks, Taylor Swift! Prince William and Kate Middleton are getting a big boost after the Grammy winner posed for a royal selfie at her London, England, “Eras” tour concert. Research shows the photo of the Prince of Wales and his oldest children, Prince George, 10, and Princess Charlotte, 9, with Swift has helped the heir to the throne and the Princess of Wales on social media.

Not only did William and his two oldest children get to go to Swift’s show—on his birthday, no less—they got to meet her backstage. William turned 42 on June 21, 2024, the same day Swift kicked off three nights at Wembley Stadium.

Meanwhile, Swift shared a selfie on her own Instagram. It showed her standing next to William, Charlotte, and George with the addition of her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. (The Kansas City Chiefs tight end has since described William as “the coolest.”)

“Happy Bday M8! London shows are off to a splendid start,” Swift captioned her post.
