Reports indicate Prince William’s growing rapport with Taylor Swift has fostered unease with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. The future king, along with his children, was seen backstage in London, posing cheerfully with Swift and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. Swift, who shared a selfie from the meeting, sent birthday wishes to William.
Harry and Meghan, meanwhile, reportedly felt slighted. Having attended Swift’s Eras Tour in August, they did not receive VIP treatment or a backstage invitation. Sources suggest this exclusion deepened their sense of resentment, interpreting it as a deliberate slight by the royal family.
Swift’s refusal to appear on Meghan’s podcast, coupled with her apparent kinship with William, intensified the Sussexes’ feelings of alienation. The selfie, a rare public gesture from William, was perceived as a direct snub, leaving Meghan and Harry disheartened as they continue to admire Swift’s talents from afar.
