PRINCE George became a fan of rockers Queen — when they performed for his great-gran.

His mum Kate said the young royal, now ten, has fond memories of the rock band’s appearance at the 2022 concert.

However, he got muddled over who was the singer and who played guitar, she added.

Guitarist Brian May, 76, drummer Roger Taylor, 74, and American singer Adam Lambert, 42, opened with their hit We Will Rock You in front of Buckingham Palace as the late Queen Elizabeth celebrated 70 years on the throne.

Adam, who replaced Freddie Mercury, found out about the royal recruit to the group’s legion of fans when he chatted with the Princess of Wales at last year’s Christmas carol service at Westminster Abbey.

He said: “It was such an honour. I got to meet Princess Kate, which was fabulous. She was absolutely lovely and down to earth and charming.

“She was talking about her son recalling the performance with the Queen at the Palace for the Platinum Jubilee two years before.

“She was, like, he said, ‘Oh is Adam going to play his guitar?’.

“She said, ‘I think he was confused who was playing guitar and who was who but he remembered who you were.’ I was like, ‘Oh, that is cute’.

Kate was understood to be referring to George who was eight in 2022.

Adam, whose EP Afters drops next week, said of her: “You could tell she really wanted to take a second to connect to say thanks.”
