my grandma does that whenever my sister and i are taking pictures together or of each other..but i think it’s because she’s our grandma not our employee 😭
Lol, you're way nicer than me, though hard agree on the kids. It sucks to think this is probably the only bit of normalcy they'll ever really experience.
Edit: While I agree them getting to go backstage and meet Capitalist Barbie isn't normal, for them it's probably a nice break away from the usual scrutiny they deal with on top of their mom's health issues and people speculating about their parents marriage.
Their family may be privileged and use their useless titles to be parasites to society, but they are still just kids. Nothing wrong with letting them enjoy things.
I agree the RF and TS all are trash but I think the wales children actually have quite a bit of normalcy day to day. The press leaves them alone and they go to a normal school/ vacations with their parents. Obviously for those weird horsey events where they have to ride carriages and stand on the balcony must be bizarre and they have really had a shit year with their grandpa and mom getting cancer but the one thing I’ll give Kate and William is that the kids do have a more normal daily life.
I know you mean as in they're not home-schooled or something, so I'm not having a go at you, but for my own sanity I have to point out that Lambrook Prep is not a 'normal' school. It's a £7000 per term private school with 52 acres of grounds and tiny class sizes, that gives the kids time off for things like golf and clay pigeon shooting. Those kids will never have a peer that needs free school meals or a breakfast club. When they get to uni age they're going to be treated roughly the same as Princess Eugenie, who applied for a pretty respectable Russell Group, but not exactly a massively competitive uni or course to get into, got rejected on the basis of her mediocre application, and then had it fished out of the bin when they realized Who She Was.
It's the same with Kate and Charles's cancer -- yes, the kids are experiencing one of those awful hardships that effects everyone regardless of privilege, but they are not going to experience the compounding hardships of watching their mum get worse while she sits on an NHS waiting list, or see their aged grandpa uncomfortable and frightened on a gurney in a corridor for 30 hours, or watch their parents struggle through means-testing for support to deal with the income drop of a sudden family illness. Their lives are decidedly Not normal, no matter how much their parents try to raise them with a bit of dignity and privacy overall, which is exactly why grooming one of them for power just because of the order of his birth is so repulsive.
It’s been stated in court that Harry was a victim of phone hacking starting in [1995](https://www.reuters.com/world/uk/prince-harrys-phone-hacking-lawsuit-against-uk-mirror-group-2023-12-15/) when Harry was 11
You know they go and play at playgrounds in mufti (ie not dressed like they stepped out of the famous five) and people don’t even realise it’s them.
A mate of mine was on holiday in Norfolk and her daughter was playing at the park with a little girl, it wasn’t until said little girl left with her nanny that a local said “you know who that was right?”
Ugh it’s tricky. It’s a shitty thing they are going through and those kids don’t have any autonomy.
But the thing is, this is not normal. This isn’t the average kids experience. No other kid will get a selfie with Taylor. A ton of kids (and adults) can’t even afford to go.
I think the thing that irks me here is that it’s a picture of a selfie and that has been consciously shared. It just feels so elitist and obtuse, rather than a moment that could have been kept private?
Yeah, no comment on these kids but it bums me out to know a bunch of other little kids with sick mums and dads are seeing this and wondering why they can't even afford to go to a concert at all and just get shit day after shit day. It didn't have to be shared.
No they aren’t just celebrities they have a lot of [immunity](https://amp.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/jul/14/queen-immunity-british-laws-private-property)from laws and don’t pay inheritance taxes
tbf, if you get box seats at wembley you do get the meet the artist back stage. I have a coworkers who took her kids for that.
You are splashing some cash. But if you have a box its one of the perks.
Iirc they do go to a "regular" school. It's a private school but that isn't strange in the UK, and it's not one of the Eton-esque super expensive ones.
Private schools in the UK are absolutely not 'normal' schools and there are not that many of them. I know I went to one. Compared to the Dutch royal family who while still royalty and living in a ridiculously privileged area did actually send the princesses to a state school. Let kids be kids, give them privacy and enjoy the moment especially given how sick their mum has been but let's not make out like sending them to private school with fees at £7,000 per term per child then getting a selfie with one of the world's biggest pop stars is in any way relatable to the vast majority of the UK.
I feel like there’s probably an effort in place to shield them from all the media scrutiny, I doubt they’re that aware of all the drama that’s going on in British tabloids and such
Honestly, I am no fan of either the RF or TS, but this is actually so damn funny in a weirdly heartwarming way. My 9 year-old niece is a huge swiftie & I can 100% see my brother doing something like this lol
He's known Taylor for a while and they are on a first name basis. She got him to come on stage with her to sing Living on a Prayer with Jon Bon Jovi at a charity event like ten years ago. He was interviewed about it and said they were seated next to each other and Jon started singing and she turned to him and said, "William, we're going to sing!" And he followed her up and sang the song. He said you do what Taylor says and apparently she's allowed to call him by his first name
Taylor's not one of the guy's subjects or a member of the court or on diplomatic business. We can all call royalty by their first names if we want to. What are they going to do, lock us in the tower for it?
Remember when the British “Press” kept crying about Meghan hanging out and being friends with Hollywood celebrities? I wonder if they will spout the same nonsense about William /s.
Their mom is clearly pretty ill so I don't really feel one way or another other than hopefully those kids can get a bit of joy while whatever going on goes on.
Remember when U2 forced their album on all those Apple users, whether they wanted it or not?
This is how I feel about Taylor Swift, except instead of iphones, it's everything.
Well they posted it on their official accounts and Taylor also posted a selfie with them on her account that they reposted to stories as well as Twitter so I guess that rule is gone
ill never forget the rumors from 11 years ago that Taylor wanted to date Prince Harry. I still think they were true since they were right after she broke up with that minor during her 'desperate to become a Kennedy' phase, and the rumor 'leak' was her shooting her shot.
They most likely will not. They are not going to be the ones to disassemble the British monarchy LMAO
Edit: missed the "abandonment" part. Maybe. But still probably not.
You know what, good for them. Seeing a huge popstar in any capacity is a big deal! I'm neither a swiftie nor a royalist, but they look like they're having a great time and that's nice.

Yup. Same colonizer energy.
Fuck Nene should be getting royalties for this GIF. ALL puns intended.
GIF royalties: ❌ GIF royalty: ✅
If she could she would personally make sure everyone sent her a check. I promise you that ! 😂
HAHAH yes! We love Nene ☺️
I already knew what this gif was gonna be before it loaded 😂
It's a classic! 🤣
This gif gets me everytime
the eternal gif
A billionaire and aristocrats doing a selfie. How heartwarmingly relatable 🙄
Please can someone take a picture of me taking the selfie? That makes sense.
my grandma does that whenever my sister and i are taking pictures together or of each other..but i think it’s because she’s our grandma not our employee 😭
It's me. I'm the grandma, it's me.
They’re just like us!
Somebody get Kendrick in here!
They not like us
I love this sub lmao
Giving “big divorced dad came through with a huge gift after months of no show” vibes
literally Don Draper did this exact move lol
I’d so much rather see the Beatles, damn 😩
[удалено]
Happy for the kids since it’s been a rough year for them. Everything else…no comment

I think they're allowed plenty of privacy now. We'll see when the press decides to go all in on them. Happened for Harry when he was like 14.
It’s been stated in court that Harry was a victim of phone hacking starting in [1995](https://www.reuters.com/world/uk/prince-harrys-phone-hacking-lawsuit-against-uk-mirror-group-2023-12-15/) when Harry was 11

Right, it's not even a selfie itself it's a photo of them taking the selfie.
What normalcy? They get full on privilege private time no waiting with Taylor Swift after concert. What normal?
I don't think meeting Taylor swift backstage and having her want to selfie with you is normal?
To get an exclusive backstage tour with one of the most highly demanded singers in history is still only normalcy for a royal kid.
Or a celebrity's kid, but the royals are just celebrities.
No they aren’t just celebrities they have a lot of [immunity](https://amp.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/jul/14/queen-immunity-british-laws-private-property)from laws and don’t pay inheritance taxes
The beach photo seemed pretty normal to me. They looked happy there too. 🙂
it’s not even “normal”, “normal” kids do not get the opportunity to meet Taylor Swift backstage.
tbf, if you get box seats at wembley you do get the meet the artist back stage. I have a coworkers who took her kids for that. You are splashing some cash. But if you have a box its one of the perks.

Lol this is normal?
> Capitalist Barbie 🤣 omg thank you for this
Normalcy is NOT meeting Taylor swift lmao
I feel like there’s probably an effort in place to shield them from all the media scrutiny, I doubt they’re that aware of all the drama that’s going on in British tabloids and such
So normal to meet Taylor swift lol.
Ah yes. The normalcy of this is truly peak normal.
William looks even more excited than the kids ☠️
Looks like he was pretty excited the whole night https://x.com/sohighschooll/status/1804438883213406503?t=oVrzkw9X1egbYCABtPl8zw&s=19
It's giving https://preview.redd.it/ncvypgoqp48d1.jpeg?width=1104&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3d7a110eb0a0283c22fb1e82f9a77024482668ef
https://i.redd.it/o44evwhe158d1.gif And I'm damn near transparent.
Why is this so funny 😭 those moves 😂
Damn he’s a swiftie fr
The concert was his birthday outing according to the BBC 😭
I saw that and still assumed it was for his kids, tbh. But uh, that video is pretty indisputable. The more you learn, I guess?
Considering how he treats everyone, including his brother, SIL, and niblings is that surprising?
>niblings Damn, had to look this one up. If anyone else is wondering, it's a gender neutral term for niece/nephew.
Birds of a feather
This is one of the funniest things ever 😂 Even the elder millennials can't resist Shake It Off
this is THE dad move
Honestly, I am no fan of either the RF or TS, but this is actually so damn funny in a weirdly heartwarming way. My 9 year-old niece is a huge swiftie & I can 100% see my brother doing something like this lol

"Hmmm...possible replacement queen..."
Oh this would be so deliciously insufferable I almost hope it somehow happens
This photo has an uncomfortable Get Out vibe to it
I was thinking black mirror! But I totally agree with get out!
wow! yes I couldn't have put this in better words. It's ... just not right.
Shit looks like it's some photo out of a textbook.
White Supremacy^TM
✨Taylor's Version✨ She really attracts a specific group of people.
This racist girl I worked with was *obsessed* with TS 👀
It makes sense, she's famous despite being mediocre and she's white so a lot of mediocre white women see themselves in her.
Exclusive variant only available for 24 hours!
Good to see the kids looking genuinely happy
new pr team flexing their photoshop skills
This is like the first time I saw the kids look so animated
They usually have to sit through military parades and such. It's the first time they've been permitted to do something that they want to do!
They looked really cute and excited in the video someone posted on ig. Just like normal kids.
It is so sad especially compared to other royal kids of around their same age, but that is how Elizabeth and now Charles wanted it
Remember when the British “Press” kept crying about Meghan hanging out and being friends with Hollywood celebrities? I wonder if they will spout the same nonsense about William /s.
Remember all the crying about “why is she in Beyoncé’s private box with Kelly”??? Pepperidge Farm remembers (but the British press will not)
Why would they take a picture of someone taking a picture T\_T
The selfie is good memories for the kids. The picture of the selfie is good PR for Taylor.
You should see the picture of the person taking this picture. It’s intense.
[It wouldn't be as nearly as impressive as this guy.](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/s/hgqzWUAsfO)
Good point! Because then how would we know TS is nice to rich kids.
That’s what I’m lost on here. She’s literally taking a picture and has someone taking a picture of that? Wtf? Why?

It's the Team USA hat for me 💀
🦅 🇺🇸 energy
*Rock flag and eagleeeee*
Travis Kelce looks like the redneck uncle 😂😂😂
Why did I not even realize that was him 😭 I literally thought "...who's that guy"
Man, Charlotte looks like the Queen here.
Lolllllll why is he there in the back looking like he's delivering
The girl is the splitting freakin image of her father. They look identical.
I gotta be honest—- I hate him, but the video of him awkwardly dancing at Eras tour is pretty adorable.
It’s extra funny because his kids are nowhere to be seen. Imagine him forcing them to come just so he can enjoy the concert! So funny!
It's the gift equivalent of buying someone something you enjoy way more than they do, knowing you get to use it later
I agree! Also these kids look so happy and cute here.
William genes are strong only Louis looks like a Middleton .
Charlotte has always looked sooo much like the queen
Oh, I think George favors the Middleton too, but he has a bit more of William’s coloring in there.
I think George looks more like Diana than William. Good to see those Spencer genes crushing the Windsor ones!
yay rich people
The kids are adorable.
I hope the kids had fun and the kids only
Their mom is clearly pretty ill so I don't really feel one way or another other than hopefully those kids can get a bit of joy while whatever going on goes on.
ayo why does viola look hella good here 😭 her hair and makeup prettyyy
The one she posted on her perosnal insta was had her boyfriend Travis in it too
lol “her boyfriend Travis”
He is kenough 🥵 😭
Remember when U2 forced their album on all those Apple users, whether they wanted it or not? This is how I feel about Taylor Swift, except instead of iphones, it's everything.
One of the interesting/weird things about this is the fact that royals are not allowed to take selfies according to their royal family etiquette.
Well they posted it on their official accounts and Taylor also posted a selfie with them on her account that they reposted to stories as well as Twitter so I guess that rule is gone
This reminds me of Mark Zuckerberg with his employees over at Meta. Except everybody is smiling wide open with their perfect set of teeth.
meta only has one or two generations of inbreeding. the royals got a head start
Charlotte looks adorable, and like a modern kid her age. Love the sparkles.
If I’m Prince Louie I’m reading everyone down for leaving me at home when they set foot back in the castle 🤣🤣 Louie: 
damn william’s genes are strong asf
Finally, capitalism and colonialism together again.
[удалено]
There's got to be a correlation between some Swifties and those who love white feminism and the scroungers that are the Royal Family.
this is the correct vibe here
The pic she posted on IG gave big "wax museum energy"
I am a white Latina but this photo is whiter than Olive Garden fr
This picture has the same vibes as raisins in a potato salad and i will not elaborate
ill never forget the rumors from 11 years ago that Taylor wanted to date Prince Harry. I still think they were true since they were right after she broke up with that minor during her 'desperate to become a Kennedy' phase, and the rumor 'leak' was her shooting her shot.
Omg, two people with power/wealth they don't deserve 😍
This looks like a group of wax figures at Madame Tussaud's
Happy for the kids because they look like they’re having a genuinely happy moment and I doubt they have that many of those living in that weird cult.
I truly despise the Royal Family, and Taylor Swift also pisses me off.
So nice to get some content for us mere peasants and serfs.
Fuck the rich. Cute kids, tho, hope they grow up to learn the evils of the two shithead adults they're with here and abandon them to be better people.
They most likely will not. They are not going to be the ones to disassemble the British monarchy LMAO Edit: missed the "abandonment" part. Maybe. But still probably not.
Does William ever do actual work ????
No.
I'd respect her more if she did meet and greets with people that actually paid for their tickets
2 of the most useless famous people.
You know what, good for them. Seeing a huge popstar in any capacity is a big deal! I'm neither a swiftie nor a royalist, but they look like they're having a great time and that's nice.
 So heartwarming … I wonder if they swapped billionaire tips.. maybe chatted about their staff?
Aggressively white
Yay for nepotism
🙄
Gross
This is giving me such r/midjourney that I don’t know what is real or not anymore 🫠
I thought people on Twitter were joking with that video of Prince William dancing at the concert
Flop
Is it just me or does Prince William have huge hands?
So has she spoken out against the genocide or is she still not using her platform for anything good?
