Travis Kelce is finally telling his side of the royal selfie story. On the October 28 episode of New Heights, Travis joked that Prince William moved him out of a 2024 backstage photo at Taylor Swift’s London Eras Tour stop because he was“just a boyfriend at that point.”The photo included Prince George and Princess Charlotte, and William later told The Graham Norton Show that Travis kept stepping back into the frame.
Travis even said he wanted to ship the edited photo to Buckingham Palace, while his brother Jason joked that the royal family was probably hoping the relationship lasted so they could keep the photo. Since then, Taylor and Travis got married at Madison Square Garden in July, which makes the whole exchange even funnier in hindsight.
Both sides are clearly in on the joke, turning a small backstage moment into one of the year’s best celebrity-royalty crossovers. So we have to ask: if you were Travis, would you have stayed in the frame or politely stepped aside? Sound off in the comments.
