In an episode of their podcast New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce, the brothers looked back on the special memory, which happened when William took his eldest two children to the concert on his 42nd birthday and they snapped a selfie with Travis and Swift.

“I don’t know. Maybe it’s because I have three girls now. She had fire to her,” Jason said of Charlotte, 9.

“She was asking questions. That was the most electric part,” said the Monday Night Countdown star, who shares daughters Wyatt, 4, Elliotte, 3, and Bennett, 1, with wife Kylie Kelce.

Travis further praised the royal’s parenting, saying, “If anyone’s doing it right, Prince William’s doing it right. So thank you, Your Royal Highness. It was awesome meeting you, and Charlotte and George.”
