It has been suggested that Taylor Swift is a major figure in the eyes of the British royal family and is a top contender for potential celebrity royal engagements.

During her Eras Tour in London, the "Fortnight" singer enchanted British royals Prince William and his children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, with her two-and-a-half show in Wembley Stadium.

Prince William was spotted enjoying himself alongside his family and videos surfacing on social media captured him and his kids dancing to Swift's hit song "Shake it Off" in a private box at the stadium.

An insider revealed to Globe magazine, "Swift is very much on the royals' radar right now; it is not just Princess Charlotte and Prince George that love her; everyone's raving about her and how talented and charming she is."

"The word is she is going to be top of their list for any upcoming galas or events that involve celebrities."

The British royals also boasted their backstage picture with the pop sensation, captioning it with, "Thank you @taylorswift for a great evening! #LondonTSTheErastour."

Amid swirling rumors, it has been revealed that the growing bond between Prince William and Swift has sparked unease for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

After all, Swift also greeted the Future British King on social media, saying, "Happy Bday M8! London shows are off to a splendid start @princeandprincessofwales."

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have reportedly expressed dissatisfaction with recent events.

The couple attended Swift's Eras Tour in August 2023, however, they were absent from the list of individuals invited backstage or granted VIP privileges.

Prince Harry and Meghan were said to have been profoundly affected by this "snub" by Swift.

The same source told the outlet, "It's no secret Markle went out of her way to try to build a relationship with Taylor and got nowhere, so it's hard for her and Harry not to see this as being a calculated way for William and the royals to undermine them further."

"In their view it's patently obvious the royals - and William in particular - love to go after anything they come close to having."

Swift declined Markle's invitation to appear on her podcast Archetypes. This decision, combined with her visible friendliness towards Prince William, has reportedly made the Sussexes feel overlooked.

"Meghan and Harry love Swift's music. They've made it very clear they would love some sort of relationship with her."

"It's the selfie that's set them off because it's just so out of the ordinary for the royals to publicize something like that. Even William's own fans have branded it as shade towards the Sussexes."
