Prince William Let Loose At A Taylor Swift Concert & The Moment Is So Telling

Even the future king of England can relate to a Taylor Swift song. The singer's European leg of her Eras Tour includes three shows at Wembley Stadium in London. Joining her for the first night on June 21 was William, Prince of Wales, who brought along Prince George and Princess Charlotte for the adventure. (Prince Louis stayed home, as did Catherine Princess of Wales, who has only made one appearance since her cancer announcement on March 22.)

It's not the first time the prince and the "Tortured Poets Department" creator have spent the evening together. In November 2013, the two joined Jon Bon Jovi on stage during a charity dinner, a moment William later revealed was a bit cringe-worthy, given his singing voice. While there were no vocal stylings by the prince this time around, there was dancing.

When Swift started singing her hit "Shake It Off," a fan in the audience captured what appears to be William up on a private balcony, moving and grooving and indeed, appearing to shake it off. And given all the angst he's been through over the last several months, he's got plenty to shake.

Prince William is ready to shake it off

Not only was June 21 the first night Taylor Swift performed in London, but it was also William Prince of Wales' 42nd birthday. The royal seemed to be in a celebratory mood when he attended the concert with Prince George and Princess Charlotte, and had no problem waving his arms in the air as the singer belted out "Shake it Off," an anthem with which William could easily identify.

The prince's reputation has been taking a hit lately with continued rumors of an affair with family friend Rose Hanbury, and speculation that he and his wife Catherine, Princess of Wales, and their awkward moments are indications their marriage is on the brink of failure. Add to that the ongoing feud between William and his brother Prince Harry, and the future king was shaking off a whole lot of haters and fakers.

He also proved he never misses a beat, including when he joined Swift backstage. The singer captured a selfie with the royal trio and Swift's boyfriend Travis Kelce, the whole group smiling big and grooving in London.
