To celebrate Prince George’s 11th birthday, the Prince and Princess of Wales have unveiled a new image of their eldest son. The black and white portrait captures the young royal looking smart and grown up, sporting an open-necked white shirt and a dark blazer. But it’s a subtle accessory that has caught the attention of eagle-eyed fans.

On Prince George’s left wrist, a woven multicolored friendship bracelet stands out. Interestingly, it’s identical to the one Princess Charlotte wore during the Wimbledon Men’s Final on July 14. The fabric bracelet, believed to be a nod to Taylor Swift, has sparked speculation among royal enthusiasts. Do the young royals share a secret fandom for the pop superstar?
