Prince William just added a royal twist to Travis Kelce’s already unforgettable wedding weekend.
The Prince of Wales made a surprise appearance on Travis and Jason Kelce’s New Heights podcast just hours before the Kansas City Chiefs star was reportedly set to marry Taylor Swift.
The royal guest was revealed in a teaser shared by the Kelce brothers ahead of Friday’s full episode, and they made sure his introduction was fit for a future king.
“Our guest today is the 6-foot-3 prince from London, England,” Jason, 38, announced.
He then rattled off William’s long list of royal titles and positions, including president of the English Football Association, Duke of Cornwall, Earl of Chester and Prince of Wales.
“92 percenters, please welcome His Royal Highness, Prince William!” Jason shouted.
Travis, 36, cheered and clapped throughout the over-the-top introduction before yelling, “Let’s go!”
As William, 44, appeared between the brothers, Travis playfully began bowing to him.
Clearly amused by the welcome, William laughed and said, “That is quite the intro, guys. Amazing.”
“We had to do it big for you,” Jason replied. “Had to do it big.”
The surprise appearance comes after William fueled speculation that he might attend Travis and Taylor’s wedding.
During a radio interview in May, William was asked whether he had received an invitation to the highly anticipated ceremony.
“No comment,” he joked.
He then added, “I’m hoping, and I’m sure there might be an invitation around, but we’ll see.”
Despite the playful response, it was later reported that William and his wife, Kate Middleton, 44, would not be attending the wedding.
William already has a close connection to both Taylor and Travis.
The royal brought his two oldest children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, to Taylor’s Eras Tour concert at London’s Wembley Stadium in 2024.
After the show, Taylor shared a backstage selfie with William, George and Charlotte. Travis also joined the group for another photo that quickly went viral.
“Happy Bday M8! London shows are off to a splendid start,” Taylor captioned the picture, adding British and American flag emojis and tagging William and Kate’s official account.
William first met Taylor in 2013 at the Centrepoint Winter Whites Gala at Kensington Palace.
During that event, the pair famously joined Jon Bon Jovi onstage for an impromptu performance of Livin’ on a Prayer.
The podcast appearance arrived amid reports that Taylor and Travis may have already made things official before their star-studded celebration.
Page Six recently reported that the couple exchanged vows in front of a “tiny group of loved ones.”
A Nashville music source claimed the pair were already legally married, though sources connected to Manhattan’s City Clerk’s Office reportedly said no marriage license application had been filed there.
“We would know,” the sources said.
Whether or not the couple quietly tied the knot ahead of the main event, Travis managed to squeeze in one final royal surprise before walking down the aisle.
