Royal Family News: Taylor Swift Had A Scheduling Conflict
Many royal fans and critics alike have commented on the matter with, “Numerous artists that could have been invited also had prior commitments that day – one of the challenges of having months to plan a coronation when tours are planned years in advance,” along with, “She also snubbed Meghan’s invitation to participate in one of her Podcasts. My guess is that is why this is in the book. We can only guess if (1) she was asked and (2) the reason she did not perform.”
Another critic wrote, “Yeah right like Charles even know what a Taylor Swift is.”
