Among the 13 million (and counting) accounts to like the slideshow of photographs (which included a [close up of that vintage ring](https://www.townandcountrymag.com/style/jewelry-and-watches/a65901677/taylor-swift-engagement-ring-details/))?

While it was the first time the Kelces interacted the Windsors, it wasnât the first time Swift had met the royals; [she and Prince William sang âLivinâ On A Prayerâ with Jon Bon Jovi](https://www.townandcountrymag.com/society/a38426402/prince-william-singing-onstage-with-taylor-swift-memory/) at a charity event at Kensington Palace in 2013.
âTo this day, I still do not know what came over me. Honestly, even now I'm cringing at what happened next, and I don't understand why I gave in,â Prince William [said in 2021 of that moment](https://www.townandcountrymag.com/society/a38426402/prince-william-singing-onstage-with-taylor-swift-memory/). âBut, frankly, if Taylor Swift looks you in the eye, touches your arm, and says, âCome with meâŚâ I got up like a puppy and went, âYeah, okay, that seems like a great idea. I'll follow you.ââ
