Talking to The Sun’s royal editor Matt Wilkinson, attention quickly focused on the Prince of Wales’ big night out at Wembley Stadium to mark his 42th birthday with children Prince George, 10, and Princess Charlotte, nine to watch Taylor Swift perform.
The royal trio also posed for selfies with Swift herself and her American football player boyfriend Travis Kelce.
Charles said: “This is now what happens when people meet royalty. Now, you don’t just meet royalty you actually get selfies with them, so you’ve got this record of them.
“You’ve got people like one of the best singers in the world Taylor Swift taking selfies, that is a big accolade for her and shows her friendship to William.”

William previously shared the stage with Swift at Kensington Palace in 2013 to perform Livin’ On A Prayer by Bon Jovi for a charity event.
Matt said: “Taylor, we’re told, was invited onto the Duchess of Sussex’s podcast Archetypes a couple of years ago and she turned it down. There’s going to be some angry eyes from California.”
Charles: “What we don’t know is the reason why Taylor Swift decided not to go to that podcast. It could be for a number of reasons.
“Taylor Swift is not a daft lady. She knows what the score is and everything and she could see what’s happening.
“But you’re right, I think Meghan would be throwing a strop over the fact that William’s there with Taylor Swift and she isn’t.
“Meghan throws out these invites to all sorts of various people. They don’t all take up the invite.”
The future king was seen pulling his best dance moves at the gig as he got into the music.
Fellow royals Zara and Mike Tindall were also spotted at the gig.
Among the other attendees at the concert were Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer and his wife Victoria.
Swift told the 89,000-strong crowd: “Oh my God, London, look what you’ve done. What better way to spend a Friday night than in the most exhilarating city in the world?”
Friday night’s concert was the first of three sold-out dates at Wembley, with the international sensation returning in August to perform another five.
