The podcast teaser came just hours after guests were seen arriving at Madison Square Garden for what is believed to be Travis and Taylor Swift’s rehearsal dinner.

The couple’s nuptials have been kept under wraps, but there has been speculation that the NFL star and music icon will tie the knot at Madison Square Garden on Friday, July 3.

While Prince William is having his wedding day moment with Travis on New Heights, PEOPLE previously reported that his royal highness will not be attending the Kansas City Chiefs tight end’s nuptials.

During a radio interview in May, Prince William jokingly replied “no comment” when asked if he was attending the wedding, sparking speculation.

However, PEOPLE understands that the Prince and Princess of Wales will not attend the couple’s upcoming nuptials.

William previously spent time with the couple when he took his oldest kids — Prince George and Princess Charlotte — to Swift’s Wembley Stadium Eras Tour show in 2024.
