Looks like William took George and Charlotte to see Taylor Swift for his birthday. Looks like Taylor was just as happy to meet them as they were to meet her.

I think the photos are nice, and I'm glad they all are having a blast.

I don't think they needed to publish the pictures though - it just does rub it in a little bit - the 'haves' and 'have-nots'. What was the point in publishing these pictures - to boost the RF or to boost TS? Neither really needs the publicity, surely?

For those who couldn't get tickets to the concert (like me and my 10-year old who has been crying every time she sees something on the TV about TS or her concert), it's poor form. Builds resilience, yes - but shows that the special people can do what they want, when they want - and the rest of us cannot.

At least if they didn't publish the photos, we could have avoided another episode of sadness here.

A teacher?! So angry about children going to a Taylor Swift concert with their parent. 🙀

I’m flabbergasted that someone in a profession that is so disrespected and portrayed by the press, politicians and lots of members of the public as short hours and full of holidays would be so blasé about how hard other people work.

They have a servant for that!

Please don’t call people servants. It’s really disrespectful of them.

Also, I don’t think teachers should mark papers while they are so angry. It’s not fair to the kids. You can totally tell!!!

Apolloneuro · 22/06/2024 19:07

@NightSweatsNinja sorry you didn’t get tickets. Are you trying the resale sites?

I wonder what the ratio is of trying and succeeding? I reckon more people didn’t get them than did.

Penelope Bridgerton (nee Featherington) was there. She was in the VIP lounge and won’t have queued or paid for her ticket.

Why aren’t people complaining about that? Acting isn’t a proper job.

That girl gets everywhere 😂

But when is it the time? I had people say to me that when Philip died it wasn't the time. And when Elizabeth died it wasn't the time. And now some of them have been ill it isn't the time.
I think if you accept public money you have to be accountable. Many people here see a photo of a family with a pop star.Fair enough- I respect that viewpoint. But of course behind it all there is politics- who paid for the police escort- who paid for the extra security etc? Why does that family get access due to their ancestors that no-one else gets?
I called the police last night to a large fight in the street- they turned up late and people got injured. Was that due to a lack of police? We have many officers employed just as royal protection officers. Politics is everywhere.

Anyway, I have school reports to finish so I'm off. I'm not so bothered continuing a conversation where another poster called me a sadfuck for disagreeing with them.

I heard that Prince William personally intercepted the police in order to prevent them attending.

Sweet pics! They look so thrilled.

Charlotte is the image of Sarah Chatto as a child.

Had to look, and goodness she is!

Oh for goodness sake. If that were the case then no photos of anything would be published in case it makes someone sad or offended blah blah.

Mrsjayy · 22/06/2024 19:09

Whoever mentioned the police there would have been more police protecting concert goers than the royal family, maybe we shouldn't have public events that need the police ?

I think Taylor would agree that Nicola also is a badass woman! I wonder if she watches Bridgerton?

Yes, we are trying - time is running out though. And I know it's not the biggest deal in the world and lots of people haven't managed to get tickets, but it's hard to explain to a 10-year old why I couldn't get tickets (and others could).

Hopefully TS will tour again ("but it won't be ERAS") and we'll have better luck next time 😐

I know! What about all the people who think teachers' work ends when the children leave?
Astonishing lack of capacity to understand.

Really? Did they go to the concert? I wouldn't call that age appropriate? :/

You should see the numbers when it's match day in my town.

I disagree - I don't see that this is serving any purpose, whereas other photos often do.

A comment on another site I've read sums it up for me

"... 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?"

You don't think Taylor swift is appropriate for pre teens ?

I get it. It's a parody of those idiots who can't think of a way to trash the royals, so just reach for the first absurd thing! True! 😂

I am sorry that you weren't able to get tickets but I don't think you can expect others to not post their joy at being there - including TS being stoked that the heir to the throne was at her show and vice versa for the Wales' - plus Era's is a record breaking phenomenom so it will have lots of publicity - it was discussed on R4 Today programme for example!

Are you within striking distance of Wembley because on other threads people have been getting notifications from TicketMaster/AXS that their code has now got access to tickets - if so I wish you all the luck!

Is that the best you can dredge up?

GoodieMcTwoshoes · 22/06/2024 19:16

@Mrsjayy @Runnerinthenight I love taylor personally, but the songs have a lot of themes about sex and some swearing.

Mrsjayy · 22/06/2024 19:17

GoodieMcTwoshoes · 22/06/2024 19:14

No.

Oh I've not heard that before I think she's for all ages. I'm not a fan really but I wouldn't hesitate to take a 9 and 11 year old.
