Fathers who took their daughters to the Eras tour shake it off in style
Millions of Brits headed to see Taylor Swift in the last month as the 14-time Grammy winner performed 15 stadium shows in the UK as part of her record-breaking Eras tour.
The singer, who closed out the tour in London after performing more shows in the capital than any other city in the world, broke records at Wembley as more than 720,000 people watched her in the national stadium alone.
And while many of the shows are dominated by women, many fathers were dragged along too, as well as boyfriends, partners, and uncles getting in the full Swiftie spirit dancing and singing the night away.
One notable father to shake it off was Prince William, who accompanied his two eldest children, Charlotte and George.
A very excited William brokeout his best ‘dad dancing’ as the singer, 34, performed her 2014 hit single Shake It Off.
The Pennsylvania born pop-star even offered a rare backstage pass for the Prince and his children who posed to grab a picture with Taylor, in what have now become world famous selfies.

While the Prince of Wales opted to dress in his usual attire of a sophisticated shirt and jacket, he offered up a slightly more casual look that his official engagement, loosening his top buttons and leaving the tie at home.
Meanwhile, of the many father’s spotted enjoying the American singer’s tour, a number have been seen embracing the Swfitie culture by donning a costume piece or two.
In one clip, a father and daughter were filmed singing and dancing together to one of Taylor songs.
The father in question wasn’t quite there with the cowboy hat but sported an appropriately coloured bright pink T-shirt to enjoy the concert with his young daughter.
The mother of the girl happened to stumble upon the video and informed viewers that the pink sporting father had gone all out Swiftie for the upcoming show.
She wrote on the video: ‘He spent six months listening to nothing but Taylor Swift to learn every word to every song on the set list for a moment like this.’
In another video, one young girl breaks down in tears after her dad filmed her reaction to surprise Taylor Swift tickets, the two proceeding to share loving hug before heading in for the 50 song show.

The politician shared a picture to his X account, revealing the three little wrists of his daughters, his wife, Lucy Symons-Jones, and his own wrist adorned with traditional Swiftie bracelets.

He wrote: ‘Hello, Wembley,’ alongside the picture, showing off a Swiftie bracelet that read ‘dad’.
During the June performances earlier this year, Labour leader – now Prime Minister – Sir Keir Starmer and his wife Victoria were also among spotted enjoying the concert with their two young children with the Wembley crowd.
David Cameron, Rishi Sunak and Sadiq Khan were among the other politicians heading to the gig.
One TikTok video also reveals the different types of fathers who attended Taylor Swift’s performances with one spotted proudly donning a pink fluffy cowboy had with matching tassels.
A second type of Swiftie father was also spotted at the Wembley shows earlier this year in June, sporting an outfit of a red checkered shirt and summer cap – possibly hinting that he had combined the day with a trip to Wimbledon to watch the tennis.
One very relaxed father even let his daughters free to dress him as they pleased. The Bejewelled father donned a full scalp of stick on gems to the concert.
One proud dad was spotted dancing with his 16-year-old daughter, who had Spinal Muscular Atrophy, and had finally made her dream of seeing her favourite pop singer live, come true.
Meanwhile, the three hour gig appeared to have all been too much for some with one father found catching up on a bit of shut eye during the performance.

Angry Patrick Mahomes says he will LEAVE the NFL and accuses the NFL of risking player safety before huge run of Chiefs games “If there’s no changes, I will leave” – Full Story Inside
Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs have an extremely congested schedule coming up – and the passer is far from thrilled with the NFL.
The two-time defending champions will embark on a stretch of three games in 11 days beginning this weekend when they face the Browns on Sunday, before hosting the Texans on December 21 and then traveling to the Steelers on Christmas.
And while the Chiefs are sitting pretty atop the AFC with a 12-1 record, Mahomes seems to be dreading his team’s next couple of weeks.
‘It is not a good feeling,’ he told reporters on Wednesday, per ESPN. ‘I’m excited to play on Christmas to hopefully get back from what we did last year [when the Chiefs lost to the Raiders], but you never want to play this many games in this short of time.
‘It’s just not great for your body. But at the end of the day, it’s your job, your profession. You have to come to work and do it.’
Mahomes added, ‘All you can do is focus on the game and the practice that you had that day. I try to prepare my body all year long for this stretch by tailoring my workouts, tailoring how you practice and you prepare. The coaches do a great job of taking care of us on the practice field. We practice hard as anybody, but they know how to kind of dial it back when we need it.’
In addition to the Chiefs, the Texans, Steelers and Ravens will also be playing three games in the next 11 days.
Crucially, though, the Ravens and Texans are coming right off of a bye in Week 14, while the Steelers had their break in Week 9.
The Chiefs haven’t had a rest since they returned from their Week 6 bye – a fact that defensive star Chris Jones was eager to point out.
‘This is one thing I’m doing this offseason is I’m going to the NFLPA, especially with us having three games in [an 11-day] span, that we’re mandatory to have a late bye week,’ he said.
‘With our schedule, it’s kind of awkward, to say the least. … That’s a conversation to have this offseason. If a team has somewhat of a schedule like that, they should get a late-season bye. We don’t need a Week [6] bye … Give it to us in Week 8, Week 10, something like that.’
Mahomes and Co. will have a week-and-a-half to recover after their Christmas Day game before facing the Broncos in Week 18 on January 5.
And if Kansas City manages to wrap up a first-round playoff bye before Week 18 – as they currently have a two-game AFC lead over the Bills – Mahomes and the team’s other starters could be held out of the final regular season game.
The quarterback then wouldn’t play until January 18 or 19 in the divisional round.

Selena Gomez, 32, Is Engaged to Benny Blanco, 36! Star Flaunts Massive Diamond Ring, Shares Sweet Photos, Hilarious Proposal Clips – and Reveals the Wedding Date Along With Another Shocking Surprise: “Our Prayers Have Been Answered, We’re Expecting…”
Selena Gomez shocked fans on Wednesday night by revealing she is now engaged to her boyfriend Benny Blanco after a year and a half of dating.
The singer, 32, revealed the news on Instagram, sharing the first photos of her massive diamond engagement ring with her 422million followers.
‘forever begins now..’ captioned the Who Said singer. She also included a photo of herself showing off her ring for the camera as Blanco, 36, wrapped his arm around her and kissed her head.
Blanco — a famed music producer — seemingly popped the question during a romantic nighttime picnic featuring Taco Bell.
The couple received an outpouring of love from theor A-list celebrity friends, including Cardi B, Jennifer Aniston, Gwyneth Paltrow and Gomez’s BFF Taylor Swift.
Swift — who has been friends with Gomez since 2008 — offered to be the couple’s ‘flower girl.’
Blanco himself also left a cheeky comment in which he referred to Gomez as his ‘wife.’
‘hey wait… that’s my wife,’ wrote the musician, who earned nearly 150,000 ‘likes.’
Gomez has been dating Blanco since June 2023, though she did not confirm the relationship until that December. At the time, she used Instagram to confirm to fans that she’d been secretly dating the hitmaker for six months and that he was her ‘absolute everything.’
Previously, the Wolves songstress dated The Weeknd, Zedd, Nick Jonas, Taylor Lautner and was linked to a number of other stars, including Zayn Malik and The Chainsmokers’ Andrew Taggart. She also famously had an on-and-off relationship with Justin Bieber, 30, that spanned eight years, before they called it quits in 2018. He is now married to model Hailey Bieber, 28, and they welcomed a baby son in August.
Before getting romantic, Gomez and Blanco were friends for over a decade and even worked on music together.
He has produced three of the singer’s biggest hits, including the 2021 tune I Can’t Get Enough and 2015’s Same Old Love.
Selena Gomez shows off engagement ring from fiance Benny Blanco. Last month, Blanco revealed that it was Gomez who made the first move.
‘She asked me out. It was crazy, it was crazy. She literally asked me… like we were just talking, and then she said, “You wanna get dinner?” And I went to the dinner, and I had no idea,’ he explained on Kai Cenat’s Twitch stream.
