Prince William features as a special guest on the New Heights podcast, with the episode dropping today just hours before host Travis Kelce ties the knot with Taylor Swift.

A teaser clip reveals Jason Kelce delivering an extensive royal introduction, which William described as "quite an intro."

Jason announced: "Our guest today is the six-foot-three prince from London, England. That's right, the President of the English Football Association, the Vice-Royal Patron of the Welsh Rugby Union, the Duke of Cambridge, the Duke of Cornwall, the Lord of the Isles, Prince and Great Steward of Scotland, Earl of Chester and the Prince of Wales, please welcome his Royal Highness, Prince William!"

Jason then remarked: "We had to do it big for you, had to do it big."

The complete episode drops at 5pm UK time.

The podcast appearance marks a significant moment for William, who previously expressed hope of securing an invitation to the couple's New York nuptials.

The heir to the throne struck up a friendship with Swift and Kelce when they met at Wembley Stadium in 2024, where the pop star and NFL player posed for a selfie alongside Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

When Heart Radio's Amanda Holden questioned William about a potential invite during a May interview, he playfully replied: "No comment."

He added: "I'm hoping, and I'm sure there might be an invitation around, but we'll see."

However, William and Catherine will not be among the guests.

The couple hosted an intimate rehearsal dinner on Thursday evening at Madison Square Garden's Infosys Theatre, welcoming approximately 100 guests ahead of today's ceremony, which is expected to draw around 1,000 attendees.

Swift transformed the iconic venue with a pink theme, illuminating the space with coloured lights and draping dusty pink curtains throughout, while peach-toned flowers decorated the interior.

Reports suggest the singer constructed a custom princess "castle" inside MSG and purchased every available calla lily in New York City.

Celebrity attendees spotted arriving included Selena Gomez, Jack Antonoff, Gigi Hadid, Bradley Cooper and Swift's childhood friend Abigail Anderson.

Swift arrived at her rehearsal dinner two hours early in a blacked-out silver Suburban fitted with an extended roof and communications antennas, later returning home past midnight after more than eight hours of celebrations described as her first-night bash.
