Prince William, who's going viral for his killer dance moves at Taylor Swift's concert in London, is being compared to his youngest son Prince Louis who missed the surprise royal appearance on Friday.

However, it was pop superstar Swift's magic that forced the royal to act like a child to her hit single at the show.

 Reacting to the Prince of Wales' dance, social media users said William was 'having the time of his life,' joking: 'Now we know where Louis gets his moves from'.

As the Cruel Summer hitmaker Swift began sings the lyrics: "And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate; baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake," Kate Middleton's husband went wild, bopping his head, flailing his arms and mouthing the lyrics above the packed venue.

Some of his fans reacted to the clip with the words: "The greatest video of Prince William ever," referring to William as "positively unhinged in the best of ways"

One wrote: "He dances exactly how I expected him to".
