Taylor Swift brother Austin Swift Reveals that Taylor Swift have been crying for over 3hours now after reading the message Travis Kelce sends to her, it goes:’ I didn’t except such from you Taylor’ and he concluded with a word that made her break down in tears.

We’re used to hearing her sing frankly and openly about her love-life, but it’s Taylor Swift’s relationship with alcohol that has been causing a stir since the release of her new album The Tortured Poets Department last week.

In her latest single, Fortnight, recorded with Post Malone and widely believed to be about her fling with 1975 singer Matty Healy, Swift confesses, ‘I was supposed to be sent away, but they forgot to get me/ I was a functioning alcoholic/ ‘Til nobody noticed my new aesthetic.’

So never mind the hunk on her arm, what about the drink in her hand?

Whether she’s watching NFL tight-end boyfriend Travis Kelce, 34, play his way to the Super Bowl, at home with BFF Brittany Mahomes, out with her glossy posse in New York or at a pop-up bar in Kansas City, Swift has been regularly seen with a chilled beverage in her grasp in recent months.

And while some may be zero proof, Swift, 34, has made plenty of references to alcohol use in her work. In Delicate she says, ‘We can’t make any promises now, can we babe? But you can make me a drink.’ While in Death by a Thousand Cuts, she sings, ‘I get drunk, but it’s not enough.’

And in 2019’s Cruel Summer – supposedly about the early days of her relationship with Joe Alwyn – she sings: ‘I’m drunk in the back of the car/And I cried like a baby comin’ home from the bar/Said ‘I’m fine,’ but it wasn’t true/I don’t wanna keep secrets just to keep you’

In fact in her last seven albums she has recorded no fewer than 40 songs that mention drinking or being drunk.

But TTPD is the first time she seems to label her drinking as any potential problem.

She said that she quit booze in preparation for her mammoth Eras Tour which saw her train ‘like a frat boy’ in a workout regime that her trainer recently claimed would see most people ‘throw up’. The grueling tour is due to restart in Paris on May 9 after a two-month hiatus, spending most of it with the seeming love of her life Kelce.

Back in January, it was revealed by Rye restaurant in Leawood, Kansas, that Taylor’s new favorite tipple is a French Blonde – a delicious mix of grapefruit, gin, Lillet and St Germaine served up in a coupe – after she spent a night drinking the concoction with Kelce and co.

Last week, lip-reading fan tismejackie took to TikTok to share what she said were exchanges between Kelce and Swift at their recent outing at Coachella.

Under the title ‘check on your swifties, were [sic] not okay’ she narrated the loved up and happy couple as they danced and kissed.

At one point Swift appearing endearingly thrilled to be placed so near the stage, at another she allegedly giggled to Kelce, ‘That was the best thing that happened tonight. Sorry I’m drunk.’
That was a far cry from the time when Taylor, then 21, told 60 Minutes: ‘I have drunk, but I’m not a drinker,’ adding that she did not like the taste of beer and when Lesley Stahl asked if she enjoys wine, she replied: ‘Not really’.

‘I don’t like, like drinking. I’m not like, “Man, that’s my favorite thing to do”,’ she added. ‘And I don’t drink to get drunk because that’s just not cute.’

Fast forward to the MTV Video Music Awards last September and the term ‘Drunk Taylor’ was trending following her energetic appearance in Newark, New Jersey, with fans wondering if booze played a part in her behavior that night as she won almost everything, danced to every song, and fangirled over NSYNC.

Footage showed her slurping drink after drink and while it’s impossible to know what was in each cup she was clearly having the time of her life and seemed in increasingly high spirits as the night wore on.
