Taylor Swift grabbed a perfect royal selfie ahead of her Wembley gig - posing with the Prince of Wales and two young music fans, Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Kensington Palace posted a picture of the royal trio with the singer backstage before the concert on Friday night.

"Thank you Taylor Swift for a great evening!" the caption read.

For Prince William, taking his two young children to the hottest show in town was a way to earn maximum dad points on his 42nd birthday. It was a busy birthday week as he had just flown in from Germany, where he attended England's Euro 2024 match with Denmark the previous evening.

Swift then posted another selfie as her boyfriend Travis Kelce joined in for the next shot alongside Prince William, 10-year-old Prince George and nine-year-old Princess Charlotte.

"Happy Bday M8! London shows are off to a splendid start," her post read.

The Princess of Wales stayed at home with six-year-old Prince Louis.

The US megastar brought her Eras Tour to London on Friday, performing for a crowd of almost 90,000. It was the first of her eight shows at the stadium, split between this week and August.

Other Swifties in the crowd included Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan and Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer.

Swift called London, where she spent a period living earlier in her career, "the most exhilarating city in the world".
