King Charles III recently sent an unmistakable message about Taylor Swift in a new video shared on social media.
On June 5, the British royal family’s official Instagram account posted a video featuring the monarch, 78.
In the clip, King Charles met with royal fans at SXSW London, a three-day festival in Shoreditch, East London, and toured the event.
“Originating in Austin, Texas, the festival aims to serve as a platform to showcase the future of the creative industries, supporting emerging artists and innovative projects,” the update explained.
It concluded, “Before departing, His Majesty popped into Old Spitalfields Market to meet locals and speak to stallholders working the marketโs โAntiques Thursday.'”
However, royal fans immediately honed in on one detail of King Charles’ video: the song choice. Swift’s 2019 track “London Boy” played in the background alongside a montage of clips from the monarch’s visit.
In the comments, many Instagram followers couldn’t help but point out the King seemingly confirming that he is a Swiftie.
One wrote, “His grandkids love Taylor Swift, I guess so does his Majesty.”
Someone else declared, “This song!!!! ๐ซถ๐๐ซถ๐๐ซถ๐๐ซถ๐.”
Another fan shared, “Love the fact they used a Taylor Swift song ๐ princess Charlotte approved ๐.”
A different Instagram user admitted, “This song choice is giving me life coming from an official royal account ๐ฅ๐.”
Meanwhile, yet another follower commented, “I donโt know what I love more. The fact that heโs standing in puddles outside in the rain to talk to people. Or that this is more evident that His Majesty is a Swiftie ๐.”
It’s no secret that other members of the British royal family are Swift fans. In June 2024, Prince William went viral for his energetic dance moves during “Shake It Off” at an Eras Tour concert in London.

Swift also posted an Instagram selfie alongside Prince William, his two older kids, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, and the singer’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce.
There was also that time in 2013 when Prince William and Swift joined Jon Bon Jovi on stage to sing “Livin’ on a Prayer.”
Long live the King and his family’s love for Taylor Swift!
