The musician, originally Gaynor Sullivan from Skewen, Wales, has been a dedicated ambassador for the Prince of Wales trust for several years, and she had the opportunity to meet Prince William and his family at Cardiff Castle. Despite not expecting the prince to be a fan of her music, she fondly recalled a kind gesture from their initial encounter. During a concert in Cardiff for the Queen’s Jubilee, the Prince of Wales arrived with Catherine and the children, mentioning that he had played some of her music to his family on the way to the event so they would recognize her.
Upon receiving her MBE from the Prince of Wales, Tyler expressed her delight in engaging in a pleasant conversation with Prince William. She recounted that the Prince wore a warm smile as he inquired about her experiences on tour, expressing his pleasure in seeing her once again. With a career spanning over five decades in the music industry, Tyler has released more than 15 albums. Despite her extensive accomplishments, she remains humble and expressed her gratitude for the opportunity to collaborate with some of the world’s finest producers and songwriters. Reflecting on her recent tour in Brazil and South America, Tyler acknowledged that she receives greater recognition in other countries. Looking ahead, she revealed her upcoming plans for a significant tour later in the year, while also mentioning her upcoming visits to Denmark and Brussels in March.
