Their Instagram is typically filled with charity work, official duties, and family snapshots, so this cute gesture toward Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce felt more personal. Not to mention, the Wales family already has a story with the \u201cBlank Space\u201d singer, after being spotted at The Eras Tour last year. In addition, they\u2019ve even spent time with Travis and Taylor personally. For many royal fans, that makes their public support look authentic and natural.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\">\n        <blockquote hcb-fetch-image-from=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PopBase\/status\/1673018744057270275\" class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The Wall Street Journal reports that Taylor Swift declined a personal invitation from Meghan Markle to appear on her podcast \u2018Archetypes.\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7byJD7CVIC\">pic.twitter.com\/7byJD7CVIC<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Pop Base (@PopBase) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PopBase\/status\/1673018744057270275?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">June 25, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n        <\/figure>\n        \n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><strong>Meghan<\/strong>, on the other hand, also hit like, but her reaction drew a different read.
