Another day and another round-up of musical and acting royalty made their way to Wembley to watch Taylor Swift perform to a sell-out crowd.

In the last few days, the 34-year-old singer has attracted Hollywood royalty and British royals to the stadium as part of her Eras Tour. And tonight is certainly no different as rock icon Jon Bon Jovi was in attendance. Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner was also spotted enjoying the experience as she was pictured with a friendly arm around Gracie Abrams. Ellie Goulding was also spotted in the crowd.

Meanwhile, Piers Morgan wasted no time in securing himself a ticket to the coveted show. Taking to social media, he wrote on X: "Taylor, the wait is over.. for both of us! #Swifty @taylorswift13." Stood high up in the stadium, wearing a casual top teamed with a pair of black trousers, the news presenter, known for his caustic put-downs completed his look with a pair of dark sunglasses. Also in attendance are Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Andrew Scott. One fan posted on X: "Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Andrew Scott are at tonight’s show... I want to cry so much." This was accompanied by three crying emojis.

In previous shows, the VIP section included A-list celebs from across the pond in abundance as Tom Cruise was seen at the venue exchanging friendships bracelets. And he was not the only one as Mila Kunis, Ashton Kutcher also made their way to see her perform. But unfortunately, I'm A Celeb star Gillian McKeith was not so lucky as she revealed that she had been scammed, in her desperate pursuit to buy tickets, by an online con artist.

The TV star, 64, posted a video of herself and her daughters sitting in the back of a black taxi as they furiously vented about the scam. Gillian was led to believe that she had bought three tickets to see the iconic pop star strut her stuff on stage at her sell-out concert in London on June 22. But unfortunately, she was duped and parted with hundreds of pounds - and the tickets never materialised.

Sharing the video on Instagram, the nutritionist who is best known for the TV programme You Are What You Eat, realised she had been scammed. Tickets for Taylor's concert were sold out and so their dream of watching the American star perform was simply flushed down the toilet.

She told fans: "I just want to say we have a problem - we got scammed. We had thought that we bought Taylor Swift tickets and it turned out the person was lying about having the tickets and just took our money." She added: "And there's been one excuse after another and they get more fantastic as each day goes on the excuses."

Sat next to her in the back of the cab, her daughter Afton chimed in: "We are devastated as we wanted to go to Taylor Swift's concert on the 22nd June. We thought we had tickets, turns out it was all a facade and a lie just to take our money. Someone we actually knew." Unable to leave it there, Gillian continued: "Total scam. Please watch out." Dealing with a mixture of emotions, including anger and devastation, Afton then said: "Now it's too late to go to her concert, we can't get a ticket now."
