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.
