Millions of fans around the world will be streaming Taylor Swift’s new album, The Tortured Poets Department this weekend.
The 14-time Grammy winning star’s 11th album has already garnered critical-acclaim, with fans calling it her ‘most heart-breaking yet’, with most of the tracks inspired by her six-year romance with British actor Joe Alwyn and two-week situationship with 1975 frontman Matty Healy.
Over her 18-year career, Taylor has dated in the public eye and sung hundreds of songs inspired by falling in – and out – of love.
Her high profile romances include Calvin Harris, Tom Hiddleston, Taylor Lautner, Joe Jonas, Jake Gyllenhaal, and John Mayer.
Some of those exes have gone on to find love again, only to marry and discover their wife is also Swiftie.
So from Sophie Turner to Vick Hope, here are the stars married to Taylor’s exes who can’t get enough of the star…
Calvin Harris’s wife Vick Hope: ‘Listens to Taylor husband not home’
Calvin Harris’ wife Vick Hope, who he married last year, says she listens to his ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift’s music when he’s not home (Calvin and Vick pictured in February)
Taylor is pictured with Calvin at the 2015 Billboard music awards. They dated for 15 months
Taylor Swift officially dropped The Tortured Poets Department on Friday – her hotly-anticipated 11th studio album
Calvin Harris , 40, and singer Taylor, 34, dated for 15 months between 2015 and 2016.
And EDM artist Calvin’s broadcaster wife Vick Hope , 34, who he married last year, says she listens to Taylor’s music when he’s not home.
She said on her BBC Radio 1 show Going Home with Vick, Katie and Jamie on Monday that the moment Calvin ‘goes away’ she puts on Taylor’s hits, waiting for him to leave as she mindful of his past relationship with the American star.
Vick’s co-host Katie Thistleton read messages from listeners about what they like to do while their partners are not around.
When Katie read that one listener liked to listen to ‘all the tunes he hates while I dance’, she said: ‘That’s good. You can listen to all of the music he hates while he’s out of the house.’
It was then that Vick announced she listened to Taylor’s songs while Calvin was away.
She said: ‘As soon as my husband goes away, I listen to Taylor Swift.
‘That’s just when I get my little fill — just a little fill.’
She added: ‘Just a couple of songs, get it out of my system and then it’s done.’
Before dating Swift, Calvin had had just one Top 5 hit.
But his career was catapulted into the stratosphere in 2016 by the release of This Is What You Came For, a song written by Harris and one Nils Sjöberg, a name that turned out to be a pseudonym for Ms Swift.
With Rihanna on the vocals, the song is – to this day – Harris’s highest-peaking single as a lead artist in the US.
But its release was not without controversy. In response to being asked about the possibility of collaborating with his girlfriend during an interview with TV presenter Ryan Seacrest, Harris said: ‘I can’t see it happening.’
Shortly afterwards, he had to perform a humiliating climbdown on Twitter, confirming that Swift wrote the lyrics and contributed some background vocals while he ‘wrote the music, produced the song, arranged it and cut Rihanna’s vocals’.
Taylor seemingly referenced this in the music video for Look What You Made Me Do, when she dances as a zombie over the grave of none other than Nils Sjoberg.
Her involvement in the song was leaked just after they broke up in a move many saw as trying to discredit his work on the hit. Harris furiously tweeted: ‘Hurtful to me at this point that her (Taylor) and her team would go so far out of their way to try to make ME look bad.’
A year later, he told British GQ that he regretted the behavior and offered a reason for the split. ‘For both of us, it was the wrong situation. It clearly wasn’t right, so it ended.’
Calvin marked Taylor’s lengthiest public relationship, following a series of well-known romances with figures such as Joe Jonas, Harry Styles, Jake Gyllenhaal, John Mayer, and Taylor Lautner.
Her brief involvement with English actor Tom Hiddleston followed her separation from Harris, eventually leading to a six-year partnership with Joe Alwyn in 2017.
However, in April 2023, news broke that Swift and Alwyn had decided to part ways. Currently, Taylor is going strong with her new beau and NFL player, Travis Kelce.
Lots of love: Sophie married Joe in May 2019 – the couple are seen here in February – as over a decade later The Jonas Brothers member had dated Taylor in 2008
Interesting: Many Swifties believe that the new track released from the ‘vault’ is indeed about Joe as Taylor previously admitted to writing Fearless song Forever And Always about her relationship with Jonas and that since Mr. Perfectly Fine did not make the cut of the 2008 album it was likely written at the same time, the former couple are seen in September 2008
‘It’s not NOT a bop’: The 25-year-old British actress Turner took to her Instagram to candidly react to the song’s release
Taylor dated Joe Jonas, when they were both teenagers, from July to October 2008.
Sophie – who shares two children with the former Disney channel actor – tied the knot with Jonas in 2019. They split in September, with Sophie then striking up a friendship with Taylor.
But Game of Thrones star Sophie was a fan of her husband’s ex long before her own split.
In 2021, Taylor released Fearless (Taylor’s Version), a ‘vault track’ added as a bonus when she rerecorded her 2008 album.
One of the tracks was Mr. Perfectly Fine, widely believe to be about Joe.
Taking to Instagram shortly after the release, Sophie shared a screenshot of her playing the track and wrote: ”It’s not NOT a bop.’.
Swifties: Sophie Turner revealed her favorite album by her husband Joe Jonas’ ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift, who he dated from July to October of 2008, during a TikTok livestream
Taylor reciprocated the banter by screenshotting the post and making light of Sophie’s Game Of Thrones character Sansa Stark by captioning it: ‘forever bending the knee for the [queen] of the north.’
In August 2022, Sophie and Joe took to a TikTok livestream, again making it clear she is a Swiftie, despite the fact her husband is the subject of many poison penned songs.
‘My favourite Taylor Swift album [is] 1989, hands down. … [It’s] literally one of my favourite albums of all time,’ she said.
After deliberating for another second, Turner backpedaled as she stated: ‘Although, Reputation was … partly inspired by Sansa and Arya Stark. Did you know that?’
In response, Jonas replied: ‘Really? That’s pretty cool!’
‘And 1989 is a great album. Bangers. Bangers!’ Joe continued as his longtime love gushed that the record is ‘one of’ her ‘favorite albums of all time.’
Shortly after the split, Taylor opened up on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and revealed that Joe had broken up with her over a 25-second phone call. ‘Some day, I’m gonna find somebody really, really, really great, who’s right for me,’ the singer stated.
Exes united! Taylor Swift, 33, and Sophie Turner, 27, two of Joe Jonas’ exes, were seen strolling arm-in-arm as they enjoyed a girls’ night out in New York City on Tuesday
‘Fearless’: Sophie Turner has posted on social media for the first time since confirming the end of her marriage to Joe Jonas
‘When I find that person that is right for me, he’ll be wonderful and when I look at that person, I’m not even gonna be able to remember the boy who broke up with me over the phone in 25 seconds when I was 18,’ she added.
Taylor later called it ‘the most rebellious thing she’s ever done’.
According to People, Joe later took to his own Myspace page to address the phone call that Swift had mentioned.
‘For those who have expressed concern over the “27 second” phone call, I called to discuss feelings with the other person. Those feelings were obviously not well received. I did not end the conversation.’
‘Someone else did. Phone calls can only last as long as the person on the other end of the line is willing to talk,’ he had written at the time.
However, as the years passed, the two appeared to be on good terms. In 2019, Taylor notably apologized to the actor for putting him ‘on blast’ during her Ellen DeGeneres interview.
And earlier this year in May, Joe gave an update on his relationship with Swift during an interview on the Dax Shepherd Armchair Expert podcast , per Billboard.
He admitted, I’m cool with Taylor. We’re cool.’ In regards to her devoted fanbase (Swifties), he stated, ‘I hope to think they like me…No one f***s with the Swifties, you know?’
Things seem to be all good between the trio as Swift had mentioned in her 2020 song Invisible String that she had sent Sophie and Joe a present for their baby girl, Willa, who was born in July of that year.
‘Cold was the steel of my axe to grind /For the boys who broke my heart/Now I send their babies presents,’ she sang.
Sophie then wore a ‘Mr. Perfectly Fine’ friendship bracelet at the Jonas Brothers’ The Tour at Yankee Stadium. She also took to social media to share a ‘Fearless’ bracelet, the album mostly inspired by Joe.
After Sophie and Joe split, the British star seemed to get even closer to Taylor, with the pair pictured on several nights out tonight.

‘It kind of was just a perfect situation’: Twilight alum Taylor Lautner (L) might have dated pop star Taylor Swift (M) for five months in 2009, but there’s apparently nothing awkward about their continued friendship alongside his wife of eight months, Taylor ‘Tay’ Dome (R)
‘This is actually the funniest thing!’ While on the museum-style set, the three Taylors recreated the Spider-Man meme, which was originally Dome’s idea
Twilight alum Taylor Lautner dated Taylor Swift for five months in 2009, after the pair met on the set of Valentine’s Day.
One of the few love interests that hasn’t been hit by Taylor’s poison pen – with apologetic ballad Back to December and upbeat vault track I Can See You believed to be about the actor.
The pair have stayed friends in the years since their split, with Lautner coming on stage at the Eras tour and even starring on the video for I Can See You, released as part of Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) last year.
His wife, who is also called Taylor, is a life long fan of Swift – and even met her when she was a little girl.
‘I know on paper, it sounds like a tough situation, but I not once was ever worried about it,’ Lautner told The Squeeze about meeting his ex.
‘We’re just confident in our relationship. Tay [his wife] is the coolest, chillest person ever. She also is a diehard fan of that person. And [Swift] is the sweetest human being on Earth, so it kind of was just a perfect situation.’
The nurse – sporting The Eras Tour T-shirt – admitted it helps that the Pennsylvania-born 34-year-old is ‘as nice as she is, and so sweet and so respectful.’
The 26-year-old registered nurse – sporting The Eras Tour T-shirt – admitted it helps that the Pennsylvania-born 34-year-old is ‘as nice as she is, and so sweet and so respectful. She’s just a nice person, very disarming. You wouldn’t know she was famous’
‘I don’t know why life is this nice to me’: Tay (L) admitted she has surprising manifestation skills, having met Swift as a child in 2010 and been a big fan of Twilight as well
‘She’s just a nice person, very disarming. You wouldn’t know she was famous if you didn’t know who she was. You would never know.
‘A laidback vibe is definitely our vibe. She makes it easy, I don’t know! I’m here for the Swifties. I feel like the middle man. I feel like I have a duty to be a voice for the Swifties,’ Tay explained.
‘Obviously now knowing her on a personal level – not that she is a different person on stage versus in private – but there’s just like, a friend. It’s so easy and laidback. I said it before, I love meeting people like that.
‘You can just have genuine conversations with them. She’s cracking jokes, she’s hysterical. It’s been so fun to get to know her and I love having people like that in my life and in our life, I feel really thankful to call her a friend.’
Mrs Lautner admitted she has surprising manifestation skills, having met Swift as a child in 2010 and been a big fan of Twilight as well.
‘I don’t know why life is this nice to me,’ the LEMONS by Tay founder marvelled.
‘Like, “Wow, this life that I live, I do not take for granted.” I know and acknowledge how blessed I am. I’m living people’s dream. I don’t take that lightly. I’m just honoured.’
Hugging it out! Taylor said it ‘felt great’ to be one of the few male celebrities to have dated the 11-time Grammy winner (pictured July 7) to inspire a positive song, Back to December, from 2010
Dome noted: ‘It’s a testament to you as a human that you are that human that she talks about. You are so kind’
‘Everything she does turns to gold!’ Lautner was ‘absolutely honored’ to be asked to act opposite Emmy nominee Joey King (L) in Taylor’s music video for I Can See You, which ‘definitely came as a bug surprise’
Taylor said it ‘felt great’ to be one of the few male celebrities to have dated the 11-time Grammy winner to inspire a positive song, Back to December, from 2010.
‘It’s a testament to you as a human that you are that human that she talks about. You are so kind,’ Tay noted.
Lautner was ‘absolutely honored’ to be asked to act opposite Emmy nominee Joey King in Taylor’s music video for I Can See You, which ‘definitely came as a bug surprise.’
‘I’m not going to go into too many of the details of our personal conversation, but I knew the moment she asked me to be a part of it that it was a yes,’ the Home Team actor recalled.
‘Everything she does turns to gold. She’s that talented. I knew whatever she was about ready to pitch me was going to be something special.’
While on the museum-style set, the three Taylors recreated the Spider-Man meme, which was originally Dome’s idea.
‘I was like “Wait, this is actually the funniest thing if we did this with the three Taylors!”‘ Lautner gushed. ‘I was very proud of that.’
Wow! On July 7, Lautner joined Swift onstage the GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, MO where he performed an impromptu back flip
The 5ft9in action star recalled: ‘This runway in her show takes up 70% of the football field. It is the longest runway. I think I panicked. I think I was imagining me having to walk that far. I got nervous! For some odd reason, my brain gets nervous, freaks out about having to walk, so I go flipping’
Songs believed to be about Taylor Lautner
Back to December
I Can See You
‘I probably took like four or five steps, and I looked down at where Taylor, Joey, and Presley [Cash] were standing. This runway in her show takes up 70% of the football field. It is the longest runway,’ Taylor explained.
‘I think I panicked. I think I was imagining me having to walk that far. I got nervous! For some odd reason, my brain gets nervous, freaks out about having to walk, so I go flipping.’
Lautner originally began dating Tay in 2018 after meeting through his sister Makena Moore.
The former karate champ also previously romanced the likes of Selena Gomez, Lily Collins, Billie Lourd, Maika Monroe, and Marie Avgeropoulos.
