The Prince of Wales brought Prince George and Princess Charlotte to the Eras Tour at Wembley Stadium

Prince William has been branded the "coolest m**********r" by Taylor Swift's boyfriend.

The Prince of Wales brought Prince George and Princess Charlotte to the Eras Tour at Wembley Stadium last week, where they took a selfie with the pop singer and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce.


Kelce spoke about the iconic royal selfie the couple took during the Eras Tour, branding Prince William the "coolest m*********r" and describing Princess Charlotte and Prince George as "an absolute delight".

Kelce and his brother Jason opened up about the moment they met the royals backstage on the latest episode of their podcast.

Speaking of the special experience, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end praised the prince as being "so cool" and "awesome", but admitted he was unsure if he was supposed to "bow to them" or shake their hand.

The Kelces met Prince William and his two eldest children on June 21 at one of Swift's sold-out shows in London as part of her record-breaking tour.

In the latest episode of their New Heights podcast, the brothers detailed the encounter and praised the prince's humility.

Travis said: "We met royalty, guys. There was royalty at the show. I got there early and got to meet Prince William. How 'bout that? Your Royal Highness.

"Dude, he was the coolest m*********r. He was so cool."

His brother, Jason, agreed, adding: "He was awesome. He was a good dude."

The brothers also laughed about not knowing the proper etiquette upon meeting the royals.

Swift's boyfriend quipped on the difference in formality between the UK and the US.

Travis continued: "He was there with little George and Charlotte, and they were an absolute delight to meet.

"I wasn't sure if I was supposed to bow to them - curtsy [or] just be an American idiot and shake their hand. [Or say:] 'Sup dude?'

"We wanted to be polite, especially on this side of the pond."

Jason responded: "We did get a warning because, honestly, we don't know the actual [etiquette].

"Because we weren't at an elegant, official royal event, we didn't have to bow. If it would've been an official meeting-of-royalty event, then it would have been that."

Jason, a former Super Bowl champion, admitted he felt emasculated after meeting the prince. He said: "I did still address him as your Royal Highness, and I've never felt emasculated, and I did. That was the closest I've ever been."

Travis joked: "I've never seen you give someone that much respect. You put your beer 10 feet away from you."

Jason continued: "I didn't have it in my teeth when I met him. They were wonderful people, and that's what it's about. They're part of a monarchy [it's] hard to be a down-to-earth human being - I would assume. But [they] came off that way completely."
