By ELEANOR MANN and AMIE-BETH STEADMAN, SENIOR VIDEO EDITOR Published: 18:41, 22 May 2026 | Updated: 18:56, 22 May 2026 Prince William has admitted he is hoping for an invite to pop icon Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding this summer.  William revealed on Heart Breakfast today that Princess Charlotte, Prince George and Louis are all Taylor Swift fans, saying they were in the crowd at Wembley for Swift's Eras Tour in 2024.  The Duke of Cornwall was asked by presenters Amanda Holden and Jamie Theakston if he had 'received an invite yet' to the US star's wedding, rumoured to be taking place on July 3 in New York.  William replied: 'No comment!', then added with a smile: 'I'm hoping and I'm sure that there might be an invitation around, but we'll see, we'll see.'  The Prince spoke of his daughter, Princess Charlotte, being the biggest 'Swiftie' of his children, saying: 'Charlotte particularly is obsessed with Taylor Swift.  'We went to see her on her Eras Tour and it was amazing. We had a box in Wembley, which is quite a long way from where the action is happening, but the atmosphere was so incredible. 'You could actually feel the floor shaking when she was singing, it was fantastic!'  Prince William, Charlotte and George even got a selfie backstage with Taylor Swift and her fiancé, American professional footballer Travis Kelce.  Prince William revealed on Heart Radio today that he is 'hoping' for an invite to pop star Taylor Swift's wedding this summer  William revealed that Princess Charlotte is the biggest 'Swiftie' in the family. Pictured: Taylor Swift taking a selfie with William, George and Charlotte behind the scenes of her Eras Tour at Wembley in 2024 Billionaire singer Taylor Swift has long been pals with Prince William.  In November 2013, the pair made headlines when they took to the stage during a charity event to sing a song together with Jon Bon Jovi.  The impromptu performance at the Winter Whites Gala evening at Kensington Palace was followed by a dinner where the pop star and Prince were snapped smiling and laughing, with Taylor Swift afterwards remarking that William was 'very funny'.  But Taylor Swift is not so close with the royal American expat couple, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.  The singer appears to have steered clear of the estranged Royal duo, even reportedly turning down two separate invitations to appear on Meghan's now-axed podcasts.  In a seeming indication of their lack of closeness - when Harry, 41, was quizzed about the queen of pop's growing 'feud' with British singer Charli XCX in October last year, the Prince appeared stunned, having limited knowledge of the so-called 'diss track' drama.  During an interview on the latest episode of the show Hasan Minhaj Doesn't Know, the American comedian asked the Duke: 'What do you think of this Charli XCX Taylor Swift beef?'  But Harry, seemingly baffled, responded: 'The what?... Oh no'.  Prince William met Taylor Swift (left) back in 2013 when he sang an impromptu cover of 'Living on a Prayer' with her and Jon Bon Jovi (centre) at Kensington Palace   Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly not as close to the US singer - with Harry being left baffled when asked about Taylor Swift on a podcast last October, after the singer reportedly 'snubbed' his wife  'No, this is serious, because was Charli's diss track even a diss track?', Minhaj continued.  The suspected conflict between the two pop princesses is believed to be in reference to lyrics that feature in Taylor's new album, The Life Of A Showgirl. 'I heard you call me "Boring Barbie" when the coke's got you brave,' Swift sings on her track Actually Romantic, in a lyric that many listeners interpreted as a pointed jab at Charli, who has openly referenced drug use in her own music. However, neither party has yet confirmed who the song is really about.  While Harry and Meghan are no strangers to the celebrity world, as a member of British Royalty and a former Suits star, there has been speculation that there have been remnants of Bad Blood between the Duchess and Taylor for a while.  Meghan was also said to have tried to land some of the world's biggest stars, including Taylor, for a female empowerment episode of her discontinued podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder, earlier this year.  However, one source close to the production claimed that 'no one' had been 'picking up the phone', adding: 'The show is not landing.' They continued: 'There's no Taylor Swift. No Beyoncé. Not even a Hailey Bieber. And when you're pitching female empowerment, that's a problem. It speaks volumes for her pulling power.' And, two years prior, during the recording period for her now-axed podcast Archetypes, the pop singer had been asked by Meghan to make an appearance, even sending her a 'personal letter' in the hopes that she would agree. But the invitation was said to have been 'quickly' turned down, with Taylor Swift's representative rejecting the appearance, the Wall Street Journal claimed. No comments have so far been submitted.
