Taylor Swift emotionally congratulates a couple after they engaged during her Eras Tour show in Edinburgh

Taylor Swift congratulated a newly-engaged couple in a touching moment during her live gig in Edinburgh, after kicking off the UK leg of her Eras tour on Friday.

Taking to the stage of the Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium, the pop icon, 34, said smiling: ‘I love performing this entire show in the sunlight because I’m pretty sure I just saw somebody getting engaged over here.’

The singer waited to hear a confirmation from the crowd, who screamed in a positive response, and Taylor was captured grinning happily from ear to ear and throwing her fists in the air as she was visibly emotional.

Taylor seemed astonished by the emotional gesture which happened right under her nose and continued: ‘I just saw the whole thing! Man, that’s amazing.

‘Thanks for doing that at my concert. That’s a big moment. Huge.’

Taylor well and truly gave fans a spectacle as she underwent twelve outfit changes during her sell-out show on Friday night.

The superstar showcased an array of sequinned ensembles at Murrayfield Stadium – some of which led fans to believe she is set to announce a re-recorded version of 2017’s Reputation.

She entertained the crowd in several looks for the three-hour long performance which included a matching white crop top and hotpants, a bejewelled bodysuit and a black and gold tasseled mini dress.

For one look, Taylor took to the stage in a white shimmering bralet that highlighted her toned midriff and paired it with matching hotpants.

The hitmaker also wore a matching white coat with a long tail and a silver lapel, adding to the look with a pearl necklace.

For another look, Taylor entertained the crowd in a bejewelled bodysuit complete with fishnet tights and her signature red lipstick.

The skintight garment featured blue and gold sequins while the superstar added height to her frame with shimmering knee-high boots.

In another eye-catching outfit, Taylor put on a leggy display in a black, gold and silver tasseled mini dress.

She later changed into a white T-shirt which read ‘This Is Not Taylor’s Version’ while singing 22 – a possible nod at a new recording of a previous album.

Playing a catalogue of hits from her latest album The Tortured Poets Department (TTPD) and classics – Taylor had the crowd in a frenzy.

To the delight of the capacity crowd in the Scottish capital, she also performed some fan-favourite hits, such as 22.

The track will be a highlight of the show for some lucky fans – and for very good reason.

It’s the heartwarming moment Taylor gives one person in the crowd her coveted fedora hat – an Eras tour staple.

Taylor wears the black fedora, from designer Gladys Tamez, while performing the track.

It’s a nod to the music video which sees her sport the hat for most of the clip, as well as the memorable black and white shirt with the text: ‘Not a lot going on at the moment.’

The tradition of giving the hat away originated during the US leg of her tour at a show in Glenfield, Arizona.

Some reports suggest that the fan is chosen at random by Taylor’s team – including her mum Andrea. But others suggest Taylor chooses people she knows personally ahead of time.

Opening the show she addressed the crowd saying: ‘What a way to welcome a lass to Scotland’ as she appeared in a sparkling blue and gold bodysuit.

Other outfit changes included a glittering red dress for We’ll Never Ever Get Back Together and a flowing lavender gown to sing Enchanted.

Fearless saw her change into a black and silver tasseled mini dress which she stayed in to perform Look What You Made Me Do.

Fans have predicted certain outfits, such as her ‘This Is Not Taylor’s Version’ T-shirt and sequinned black dresses could be a hint at Reputation (Taylor’s Version).

The original recordings of her first six albums were owned by a record label, which is often the case for most musical artists. They were eventually sold to a private equity firm, that Swift publicly opposed, according to WCNC.

After 1989 (Taylor’s Version) dropped last year, Swift has two albums left to re-record: her debut self-titled album and Reputation, before completely owning all of her music.

Playing a catalogue of hits from her latest album The Tortured Poets Department (TTPD) – Taylor had the crowd in a frenzy.

To the delight of the capacity crowd in the Scottish capital, she also performed some fan-favourite hits.

Arguably the biggest highlight of all came from the two tracks in her secret ‘surprise’ slot – a period during concerts that the vocalist dedicates to two ‘mystery’ tracks that she changes with each performance.

Prior to the concert, Swifties reacted with glee when the singer touched down in Edinburgh on Friday afternoon.

The American megastar arrived at lunchtime and was shrouded by umbrellas before being whisked away in a blacked-out vehicle accompanied by a police escort.

The attempt to stay out of the view is reminiscent of a similar trick Taylor played when she arrived to Los Angeles airport in February before supporting her boyfriend Travis Kelce at the Super Bowl.
