The Kelce brothers had quite the weekend in London, taking the quick flight from France to catch a few of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour concerts.
And along with getting to see the singer perform on one of the biggest stages, they also got to meet the royal family, who attended Swift's Night 1 show at Wembley Stadium.
“We met royalty guys. There was royalty at the show," Travis said on the latest episode of the New Heights podcast. "I was fortunate enough that I didn’t get caught up in traffic long enough to where I got there early and got to meet Prince William. How about that? Your Royal Highness.”
And he had the perfect response to meeting Prince William: “Dude, he was the coolest motherf***er.”
Jason agreed.
“He was awesome,” the older Kelce brother said. “He’s a good dude.”
However, since they were meeting royalty, they didn't even know how to address them.
“I didn’t realize this because obviously we’re backstage meeting him because he was there with little George and Charlotte, and they were an absolute delight to meet," Travis explained. "Wasn’t sure if I was supposed to bow to them or curtsy or just be an American idiot and shake their hands. ‘Sup Dude.’"
But it turns out the brothers were given a quick lesson on what to do.
“Honestly we did get warning because we don’t know the actual,” Jason said and Travis then finished the sentence.
“We wanted to be polite, especially on this side of the pond,” the Chiefs tight end added.
And Jason finished up the full explanation of everything.
“But they said that because we weren’t at an official royal event, we didn’t need to bow or curtsy. If it would have been an official meeting of royalty event, then it would have been that," he said. "But I did still address him as ‘Your Highness.’ And I’ve never felt emasculated, and I did. That’s the closest I’ve ever been."
For Travis, it was fun to see his brother so starstruck.
“I’ve never seen you give someone that much respect," he stated. " \You put your beer ten feet away from us.”
“I didn’t have it in my teeth when I met him,” Jason finished with a laugh, referencing the viral moment of him carrying a beer with his teeth during the concert.
Instagram Official X2
While everyone in the world is aware that Taylor Swift is dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, the singer finally did one thing to make it as official as it can possibly be.
Following her Friday night show at Wembley Stadium in London, Swift met some very special guests backstage. The Royal Family was in attendance, having come to the show to celebrate Prince William's birthday. And Swift took an epic selfie, joined by Prince William, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, along with Travis.
It was the most iconic way to go Instagram official, and of course it was Swift who pulled it off.
This was the first time the Chiefs tight end was featured on Swift's Instagram.
And she didn't stop there.
Swift was clearly so proud of the Kansas City Chiefs tight end for making his Eras Tour debut in front of nearly 90,000 fans at Wembley Stadium on Sunday night. And she is also so in love.
After each and every one of her stops on the Eras Tour, the singer has posted numerous photos on Instagram from that state or country. But for London, there was something clearly different about it.
She included two photos of Travis' time on stage and also posted a video one fan took of Travis taking the stage along with his entire performance beside the singer.
And she gave him a shoutout in her caption.
"And I'm still cracking up/swooning over @killatrav's Eras Tour debut 🥰," she wrote on Instagram. "Never going to forget these shows. Can't wait to do it 5 more times in August."
So both of Swift's latest posts include the tight end.
