“The Tortured Poets Department” Took Over the Internet
Released in April 2025, The Tortured Poets Department has become one of Taylor’s most personal and experimental albums to date. It’s poetic, raw, and at times devastating. Collaborations with Post Malone and Florence Welch gave it even more depth, while fans connected deeply with songs like "Fortnight," "So Long, London," and "I Can Do It With a Broken Heart."
It’s her fifth project since starting the Taylor’s Version re-recordings, and some critics are calling it her most revealing album yet.
🌎 The Eras Tour Isn’t Over Yet
After dominating North America, Asia, Europe, and Oceania, Taylor is currently performing in Latin America — and these shows are next level. She’s updated the visuals, the stage design, and even the setlist to include songs from The Tortured Poets Department.
Even a year into it, the Eras Tour still feels fresh. Fans are calling it a career-defining moment and possibly the most ambitious tour of all time.

How Taylor met Travis?
It all started like something out of a modern fairytale. During NFL tight end Travis Kelce publicly shot his shot at Taylor Swift in summer 2023 after seeing her live at her Eras Tour stop in Kansas City. He joked on his podcast that he tried to give her a friendship bracelet with his number on it, but he failed. Even tho this started just as an innocent joke, this information got to Taylor’s team, and they made sure these two would meet. Next thing we know is that by the fall, Taylor Swift was spotted in a VIP box at Arrowhead Stadium, cheering him on next to his mom. These two quickly became the couple everyone was watching with hand-in-hand strolls in NYC, cheeky Super Bowl kisses, and date nights that made headlines. In 2024, they took it a step further. Rumors swirled all year, and by early 2025, it was confirmed: Taylor and Travis were engaged. Unlike her previous high-profile relationships, this one feels different, quieter in some ways, but also more open, more grown. She beams when she’s with him. He shows up for her. It’s not just Enchanted, it’s real. And for a woman who’s turned heartbreak into art for over a decade, fans are loving this arc, the “happy ending” that still feels like a beginning.
Here’s a look at Taylor Swift’s past relationships:
Joe Alwyn (2016–2023) – her longest and most private relationship; inspiration for much of Lover and Folklore
Tom Hiddleston (June–September 2016) – whirlwind summer romance
Calvin Harris (2015–2016)*– DJ/producer; they kept things mostly low-key
Harry Styles (Late 2012–Early 2013) – highly public, brief, and left fans with Style and Out of the Woods
Conor Kennedy (Summer 2012) – short-lived, but made headlines due to the age difference
Jake Gyllenhaal (Late 2010–Early 2011) – dramatic split; widely believed to be the subject of All Too Well
John Mayer (2009–2010) – brief but intense; inspired Dear John
Taylor Lautner (2009) – met on the set of Valentine’s Day
Joe Jonas (2008) – famously dumped her over a 27-second phone call
Now, with Travis Kelce by her side, it feels like Taylor is finally getting her own love story, not just the kind she writes about, but the kind she gets to live.
What’s Next? A New Album is Already on the Way
Surprise (but also not really) is that Taylor’s next album has been announced, but we don’t have an official title or tracklist yet. What we do know? It’s coming in late 2025, and rumors suggest it’ll mark a shift in sound, potentially more folk-leaning or even a full pivot into something completely unexpected. We also know the two dominating colours, which are orange and green, as we could see on her official Instagram.
Plus, with only Reputation and Debut left in her re-recording journey, a Taylor’s Version drop is almost certainly on the horizon.
