Must read

Taylor Swift declared she has the ‘best view in London’ as she kicked off yet another show in Wembley.

The Fearless hitmaker, 34, took to the stage in London on Monday for night seven of her Eras Tour gigs at the stadium.

And Taylor gushed over her audience, hailing them the best view to see in the sight-seeing capital.  

‘You know out of all the sights in London you could come to see, I’m pretty sure this view I’m seeing right now is absolutely the best one!’ Taylor told her adoring fans. 

As is tradition at the megastar’s show, a lucky young fan was ecstatic to receive the hat worn by Taylor during her track ’22’.

In a clip shared on social media, the female looked in total shock as Taylor approached her and popped the black hat on her head. 

During the song, Taylor made fans laugh as she suggested she felt 55,000 years old during the number.

As the lyrics said ‘I’m feeling 22’, Taylor used her hands to mime the huge number – in a joke about the age she felt at the time.  

Wembley night seven also saw the return of a stunning gown for the Folklore era – which the star hadn’t worn in 15 shows. 

The beautiful blue dress consisted of a satin skirt complete with a lace hem, as well as a fitted corset. 

It was finished with a diamond-encrusted sheer cape draped over the star’s shoulders, with a train attached. 

Sadly Taylor wasn’t blessed with the hot weather of recent days for her seventh show at the stadium, as the heavens opened.

‘I think when it rains for more than like 6 MINUTES we can officially declare it a rain show!’ she told fans as the rain poured down.

Taylor hailed Maisie Peters ‘the most amazing opening act possible’ during night four of her Wembley run. 

The songstress, 34, praised Maisie, 24, as she took to the stage in London on Monday in front of 92,000 adoring fans. 

Admitting that she was a ‘big fan,’ Taylor applauded the English singer’s writing skills and said she ‘crushed it.’

While Paramore will perform every night, Raye, Suki Waterhouse, Holly Humberstone, Sofia Isella and Maisie will play one night each. 

Halting a song to speak to the audience, Taylor said: ‘The plan is that we going to have a great night. 

‘But you guys have already had a great night as you got to be absolutely dazzled by the most amazing opening act possible.’ 

She continued: ‘It’s someone who I am such a big fan of, she is amazing, she is absolutely incredible, crushed it on this stage, love her songwriting so much!

‘I am of course talking about the amazing Maisie Peters!’

Eagle eyed fans spotted that actor – and T Swift’s ex – Taylor Lautner was in attendance for the concert on Monday. 

The actor, 32, who dated the singer briefly back in 2009, was seen amongst the nearly 100,000 strong crowd as he took his seat. 

His appearance comes amid speculation that another former flame of Taylor’s, Harry Styles, could also attend the show, after he was spotted in London over the weekend. 

It’s not the first time that Taylor Lautner has supported his ex, as he was last seen on stage during her concert in Kansas City last summer. 

Following their split, the songstress famously wrote heartfelt track Back To December about their relationship. 

Swift and Lautner met on the set of the star-studded rom-com Valentine’s Day in 2009 and went on to enjoy a whirlwind romance that Autumn.

Unlike many of her breakup songs, Back To December is Swift apologising to Lautner for how things ended.

Sharing photos to X, fans wrote: ‘Taylor Lautner is at the eras show today !!!!!

Elsewhere, fans were pleased to see that Harry – who divides his time between the UK and the US – was in London as it fuels rumours he’ll be joining Taylor at her concert. 

The One Directon star reportedly enjoyed a three month fling with the American songstress between 2012 and 2013 before splitting following an ‘almighty row’.

On Sunday, after Harry was spotted strolling through London with Taylor’s close friends and singing sisters Este, Danielle and Alana Haim, Swifties were sure this meant he was also in contact with the Bad Blood hitmaker. 

After the footage was posted on X, fans commented: ‘Next notification we’re about to get is set for tomorrow and it’s Harry Styles and Haim spotted at the eras tour at Wembley’: ‘And ur gonna hate me for saying this… but harry hanging out with the Haim sisters means theres about a 98% chance he’s also hanging out with Taylor’.

Little more than a week after a very public display of affection on new year’s eve as the clock struck midnight to kick off 2013, a source confirmed to MailOnline that Harry and Taylor had parted ways.

The source said: ‘Yes I can confirm they have split up. They were on holiday and had an almighty row. They are two young stars at the top of their game so who knows what will happen in the future.’

Taylor, who is known to write songs about past relationships, is thought to have penned at least three songs about Harry – I Knew You Were Trouble, Style and Out of The Woods.

In 2015, the singer revealed her whirlwind romance with Harry had been an experience filled with anxiety.

During a performance at the Grammy Museum, she introduced Out of the Woods by telling the audience about her anxiety-inducing relationship – although she didn’t mention Harry by name.

‘I’m going to play you a song that I wrote about a relationship that I was in that the number one feeling I felt in the whole relationship was anxiety,’ she explained as she sat at her piano.

‘Because it felt very fragile, it felt very tentative. And it always felt like, “Okay, what’s the next road block? What’s the next thing that’s gonna deter this? How long do we have before this turns into just an awful mess and we break up? Is it a month? Is it three days?”‘
