Taylor Swift has offered fans a profoundly personal glimpse into her life away from the stage in the latest episodes of her new documentary series, now streaming on Disney+.
A Candid Look Behind The Eras Tour
The documentary, titled 'Taylor Swift: The End of an Era', premiered on the platform earlier this month. It chronicles the creation and immense cultural impact of her record-breaking Eras Tour, which ran from March 2023 to December 2024. While detailing the tour's mechanics, the series also delves into the star's private world, including her current high-profile romance with NFL star Travis Kelce.
Viewers learn that Kelce attended a show in Kansas City in the summer of 2023, with Swift's mother shedding light on how the relationship began. The pair started talking privately, with their first date taking place in New York City, initially keeping their budding romance away from the public eye before it became official in September 2023.
Swift's Dating History Before Finding Love with Kelce
This revelation has led many to question who the pop icon was dating before her relationship with the American footballer. Swift's romantic history includes several famous names. Most recently, in 2023, she was linked to The 1975 frontman Matty Healy, with the pair spotted together before reportedly splitting weeks later. Rumours of a connection between the two musicians first surfaced nearly a decade earlier, in 2014.
Prior to that, Swift was in a long-term relationship with actor Joe Alwyn from 2016 to 2023. The couple famously maintained a very private life together, with the exact reasons for their split remaining undisclosed to fans. Other notable ex-partners from over the years include Taylor Lautner, Calvin Harris, and Joe Jonas.
Heartbreaking Admissions and an Early Christmas Gift for Fans
In a particularly raw moment from the new documentary instalment, Swift reflects on the emotional toll her personal life took during the tour's first leg. "I went through two breakups on the first half of this tour, that's a lot of breakups actually," she admits. "The show was what gave me purpose and was what I could use to get me out of bed." She concludes with a poignant statement about her dedication to her craft, claiming, "Men will let you down, the Eras tour never will."
As a special treat for Swifties, Disney+ has announced an early release for the series finale. Instead of the planned date of December 26, the final two episodes (five and six) will now premiere on December 23 at 12am PT. The first four episodes of 'Taylor Swift: The End of an Era' are available to stream now, with new episodes dropping weekly.
