Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston haven’t been spotted together for weeks, but are they really on the rocks?
According to a new report, Taylor Swift is focused on her friend,
Selena Gomez, who recently announced struggles with panic attacks,
anxiety, and depression, as Hiddleston continues to film the upcoming
installment of Thor in Australia.
At the end of last month, Us Weekly revealed Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston had engaged in a “major fight” after the distance between them put a strain on their relationship, and now a report regarding the possible end of their relationship has surfaced.
“Taylor Swift’s relationship with Tom Hiddleston is allegedly on the
rocks. However, it seems like she is reaching her hand out to her best
friend Selena Gomez even if she has her personal relationship problems
to solve,” the Hall of Fame Magazinerevealed to readers on September 2. Movie News Guide also spoke of Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston’s possibly impending split on August 31, claiming their absence at the recent MTV Video Music Awards was the result of their strained relationship.
“Tom Hiddleston has too much on his plate while his lady love, Taylor
Swift is not as busy as she has wrapped up her music tour. It appears
the distance is tearing the relationship apart,” the outlet explained.
Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston began dating in June of this year —
just weeks after Swift’s relationship with Calvin Harris came to an
unexpected and abrupt end. While Swift was believed to have rushed to
Harris’ side at the end of May after learning that he was involved in a
car accident in Los Angeles, their split was confirmed days later, and
two weeks after that, Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston stepped out in
Rhode Island.
During a beach visit, Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston made their
affections for one another quite clear as they kissed and held hands.
Meanwhile, rumors began swirling regarding possible infidelity due to
the fact that Swift had been seen dancing with Hiddleston during the Met
Gala in New York City in early May.
In other Taylor Swift news, the singer is reportedly in “constant”
contact with longtime friend Selena Gomez, who announced she would be
taking a break from her career and ongoing tour earlier this week.
In a statement to fans on Tuesday, Gomez revealed that she has been
experiencing panic attacks, depression and anxiety, which have been
prompted by her battle with Lupus. In turn, she revealed she would be
taking “some time off.”
A short while later, a report claimed Taylor Swift had been rallying
around her friend and letting her know that she is completely supportive
of her decision to focus on her health.
“[Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez] have been in constant communication with each other” throughout Gomez’s struggles, a source toldHollywood Life
on August 31. “Taylor has made it clear to Selena that she has her back
and can come spend time with her whenever she wants… Taylor wants to
try and see Selena as soon as she can to give her a big hug.”
Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez have been close friends for years, and
while they are often on different sides of the country — Swift spends
the majority of her time in New York City while Gomez is based out of
Los Angeles — they always seem to make time for one another when they
have extra time.
