William also recounted the unexpected and memorable experience in a 2021 episode of Apple Fitness+’s Time to Walk series, describing how he participated in the sing-along because of Swift’s encouragement.
“When I sat down to watch Jon Bon Jovi do his performance, I thought, ‘That’s it. My job is done. I’ll get a dinner in a minute, and I might be able to have a chat to some people, and, you know, I’m off-duty a little bit now.’ Little did I think what was going to happen next,” he said.
“I’m sat next to Taylor Swift. She’s on my left. And after Jon does his first song, there’s a pause and she turns to me. She puts her hand on my arm, looks me in the eye, and says, ‘Come on, William. Let’s go and sing,'” the Prince added.
Prince William’s admiration for Swift was evident again at the 2023 Tusk Conservation Awards. while speaking with Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood when he expressed his enthusiasm for Swift.
