Taylor Swift had a brush with royalty on the opening night of her Eras Tour stop in London.

The pop superstar, 34, snapped a couple of backstage selfies with Prince William and his children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, at Wembley Stadium on Friday (June 21). Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce also posed with them.

The Prince of Wales happened to be celebrating his 42nd birthday on Friday. His wife Kate Middleton, who is undergoing treatment for cancer, and son Prince Louis, did not appear in the snapshots.

“Happy Bday M8! London shows are off to a splendid start,” Swift wrote on Instagram alongside a photo with Prince William, his kids and Kelce.

Prince William shared another photo of the group on the Prince and Princess of Wales’ official Instagram account. In the image, Swift poses alongside the three royals while extending her arm to take the picture.

“Thank you @taylorswift for a great evening! #LondonTSTheErastour,” the caption reads.

During the show, Prince Williams was caught on video letting loose to Swift’s hit song “Shake It Off.” Check out the clip of him dancing to the tune on X here.

This isn’t the first time Swift and the future king of England have crossed paths. In 2013, Prince William joined Jon Bon Jovi and Swift onstage for a performance of the band’s classic hit “Livin’ on a Prayer” during a charity gala at London’s Kensington Palace.

Swift’s Eras Tour is set for three shows at Wembley Stadium from June 21-23. Paramore is the special guest for all three shows, with METTE opening the kickoff concert, Griff the second show and Benson Boone the third.

The pop superstar recently wrapped a show June 18 at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, her first time performing in Wales. “That was truly out of control in the best way – looking out into that massive, bouncing, dancing sea of people… I’ll never forget it,” she captioned a carousel of photos on Instagram after the concert. “I’m absolutely living for these UK crowds.”

Swift, who launched the global Eras Tour in March 2023, recently shared with her fans that the long-running trek would be ending. During her June 13 performance in Liverpool, England, she told the crowd at Anfield Stadium, “The celebration of the 100th show means this is the very first time I’ve ever acknowledged to myself and admitted that this tour is going to end in December,” she said. “Like, that’s it.”
