The Prince and Princess of Wales have topped Tatler’s Social Power Index of the 100 “most socially significant people” in Britain in 2025.
William and Kate were named number one in the society bible’s annual list and hailed as “the most influential in the land”, ahead of Sir David Attenborough and the Beckhams.
The magazine called the future King and Queen “dream dinner guests” and praised the princess’s “grace and grit” after her cancer diagnosis.
“Top billing goes to the Prince and Princess of Wales, future rulers of this sceptred isle – and dream dinner guests,” it said.
The magazine added: “Aston Villa, the beauty of nature, tennis: the Prince and Princess of Wales have plenty of passions and there’s much to admire about the royal couple, especially the grace and grit displayed by Catherine after her cancer diagnosis.
“They will have a kingdom to run in due course, which makes them the No 1 couple to have at your table.”
British and Irish Lions captain Maro Itoje and his model and artist wife Mimi came second, with Itoje praised for his rugby achievements, his poetry writing, passion for art, and for appearing on a previous Tatler cover.
Also on the list were former England men’s football captain Sir David Beckham and ex-Spice Girl Lady Beckham in fifth place, with Tatler declaring that thanks to Sir David’s new knighthood: “Brand Beckham just grows and grows.”
Other famous names included naturalist Sir David Attenborough, Health Secretary Wes Streeting, who was singled out for his karaoke performances, Industry star Marisa Abela and The Crown actor Dominic West.
