    Prince William proves he’s a Taylor Swift fan with these photos and videos : What does M8 stand for

    Over the past week, the British royal family has been in the spotlight, and not just due to matters of state.

    Prince William, second in line to the throne, shared an endearing photo on his social media that has caused a sensation worldwide.

    In the picture, Prince George and Princess Charlotte—his adorable children—appear alongside him at a concert by music superstar Taylor Swift.

    Swift’s global tour, “The Eras Tour,” has been a resounding success, and Prince Harry’s brother didn’t want to miss the opportunity to take his kids to her concert at Wembley Stadium in London.

    Accompanied by Zara and Mike Tindall, the royal family enjoyed a night filled with music and fun.

    On Friday, June 21, Prince William celebrated his 42nd birthday in private with his wife, Kate Middleton, and their children.

    Despite Kate’s ongoing health challenges due to cancer, the prince wanted to be by her side on this special day.

    However, he had one last evening plan that turned out to be the perfect birthday finale. The stadium was packed with 90,000 people dancing to Taylor Swift’s chart-topping songs.

    Interestingly, there’s a special connection between the singer and Prince William.

    They shared the stage at Kensington Palace in 2013, performing “Livin’ on a Prayer” alongside Jon Bon Jovi during a charity event.

    In a 2021 interview, Prince William confessed that when Swift asked him to sing with her at that event, he felt like “a puppy.” Even now, he remains puzzled by why he agreed and took the stage in a trance.

    Before last Friday’s concert, the military band at Buckingham Palace paid tribute to the pop star by performing one of Swift’s 2014 hits, “Shake It Off,” to mark the arrival of her tour in the UK capital.

    What does m8 stand for

    On social media, the Prince of Wales shared a photo with his children, and Taylor Swift also posted a picture of herself with William, George, Charlotte, and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. It caught attention that the singer wished the prince a happy birthday and referred to him as “M8.”

    While it might seem like a coded message, it’s actually a colloquial abbreviation in written language. “M8” stands for “mate,” conveying a friendly and familiar tone. Clearly, their relationship goes back quite some time.
