Although that is a fantastic lineup, fans should also be aware that Prince William made a special appearance on Friday during the weekend gigs (Swift sold out Wembley for numerous shows, including a second stretch later this summer). Swift treated the family—aside from Kate Middleton and Prince George—to a selfie after the heir apparent to the British monarchy brought his children to the performance.
The third event, staged on June 23 at London's Wembley Stadium, was even more spectacular when Kelce, 34, shocked fans by joining his pop star girlfriend onstage. Wearing a tuxedo and top hat, the 34-year-old tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs made his official tour debut. He filled in for the dancer who often carries Swift during her I Can Do It with a Broken Heart changeover.

In honor of her three nights of performances at Wembley Stadium this past weekend, Swift, 34, posted a picture on social media. The first image was one from her and her beau's performance together. “I’m still cracking up/swooning over @killatrav’s Eras Tour debut 🥰 Never going to forget these shows,” wrote Swift.
The couple's relationship has only grown in love for the last couple of months, per PEOPLE. Speaking on the most recent episode of Barstool Sports' Bussin' With The Boys podcast, which was taped on June 19 and published on June 25, the 34-year-old tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs remembered the moment he realized he was beginning to "fall" for Swift. "She's very self-aware. And I think that's why I really started to really fall for her, was how genuine she is around friends [and] family. It can get crazy for somebody with that much attention ... and she just keeps it so chill and so cool," he revealed.
