Travis Kelce is officially a fan of the royals. After meeting Prince William and his kids at Taylor Swift‘s Eras Tour show in London over the weekend, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end gushed about the experience with his brother Jason on New Heights and said that the heir to the British throne was “very genuine” throughout.
“Dude, he was the coolest motherf—-r,” Travis began on the episode posted Wednesday (June 26), filmed over proper English tea with both brothers still in the U.K. following Swift’s shows. “He was so cool. They were an absolute delight to meet. Wasn’t sure if I was supposed to bow to them, curtsy, just be an American idiot and shake their hand … We wanted to be polite, especially on this side of the park.”
“Prince William was fantastic, but the highlight was Princess Charlotte,” Jason, who attended the show with Kylie Kelce, chimed in. “She was so f–king adorable. She had fire to her. She was asking questions.”
“She was a superstar,” Travis agreed. “She was awesome. I love it when parents ask their kids to be present, be vocal — such a good parent move. Let them feel comfortable talking to people. If anyone’s doing it right, Prince William’s doing it right.”
The episode comes five days after Prince William, Princess Charlotte and Prince George attended the “Anti-Hero” singer’s opening night at Wembley Stadium. The night also happened to be the Duke of Cambridge’s 42nd birthday, which Swift commemorated by posting a backstage selfie with Travis and the royal family on Instagram.
“Happy Bday M8!” she captioned the snap. “London shows are off to a splendid start.”
Aside from meeting the royals, Jason also shared his favorite moments of Swift’s three-hour showcase, starting with the pop star giving her “22” costume hat to a young fan in the audience. “I’ve never cried at a f–king concert, and I was literally tearing up watching this little girl’s entire — I’m about to tear up right now,” the retired Eagles center said. “It was f—ing so special.”
Jason also raved about Swift’s surprise song section, during which she performed mashups of “Hits Different,” “Death by a Thousand Cuts” and “The Black Dog” and “Come Back…Be Here” and “Maroon.”
“That was my favorite part,” said the elder Kelce. “It’s just her, a guitar and 90,000 people. To be good in front of 90,000 people with just that, I think you have to be amazing … It feels like you’re in a bar just listening to somebody play on a piano.”
