Swifties have long had a theory about Taylor Swift’s song Sweet Nothing.
The popular idea about the song from 2022’s Midnights is that it is about the Cruel Summer star, 33, and her ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn, 32.
But now, eagle-eyed fans have noticed that Swift liked a post on Twitter that posits another theory.
From our partners:
The Bad Blood singer – who is shacking up with boyfriend Travis Kelce over the holidays – liked a post on Twitter that details a theory about another celebrity couple one of whom also happens to be British like Alwyn.
The October 2022 tweet compared a quote from Paul McCartney to a lyric in Sweet Nothing.
The Beatle had a sweet tradition with his late wife Linda McCartney, saying: ‘I would come back from a run with a poem to share and having listened Linda would say, “What a mind.”‘
In Sweet Nothing, Taylor sings: ‘On the way home / I wrote a poem / You say, ‘What a mind’ / This happens all the time.’
The song is likely inspired by the McCartney quote but it still has heavy ties to Alwyn.
The song is the only track on Midnights that was co-written by the Conversations with Friends star and the first verse talks about a pebble picked up on the beach in Wicklow.
That is where the Stars at Noon actor filmed the Hulu series.
Swift’s collaborator Jack Antonoff revealed that the song was written in December 2021 which through Swifties into a tizzy by realizing that her six year relationship with the actor had been on the rocks for awhile before their split in April 2023.
This week, Gossip blog DeuxMoi claimed that Swift had married Alwyn in ‘either 2020 or 2021’ but it was never made legal.
The rumor seems to have been based on the old rumor that Swift and Alwyn were secretly engaged and she only wore the ring in private.
But her rep denied it.
‘Enough is enough with these fabricated lies about Taylor from Deuxmoi,’ Swift’s publicist Tree Paine wrote, while sharing a screenshot of the post.
She also insisted that ‘there was NEVER a marriage or ceremony of ANY kind’ and that the outlet was ‘insane’ for reporting otherwise.
‘This is an insane thing to post. It’s time for you to be held accountable for the pain and trauma you cause with posts like these,’ she concluded.
Deuxmoi — a popular Instagram page that re-posts blind items about celebrities from anonymous sources — made the bombshell claims Thursday in response to a submitted post relating to Swift.
The anonymous submission called out Swifties for running with theories about the pair’s relationship following the streaming release of Swift’s Midnights bonus track You’re Losing Me — which many believe is about Alwyn.
