Exclusive: Taylor Swift and Harry Styles Are ‘Making Plans to Meet Up’ Post-Split: ‘Timing Is Everything’

Jul 6, 2023 - Life & Style Staff (x)

She was hardly subtle. During Taylor Swift’s performance of “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” at the 2013 Grammys — which took place a month after she split from One Direction singer Harry Styles — the pop star seemingly took a jab at her ex in front of millions. 

“So, he calls me up and he’s like, ��I still love you,’” she said in a British accent with a mocking tone in the middle of her set at the time. “And I’m like, ‘I’m sorry, I’m busy opening up the Grammys!’ And we’re never getting back together, like, ever.” 

But a decade later, Life & Style has learned, Taylor, 33, may be having a change of heart. 

“Taylor and Harry dated more than 10 years ago. She was 22 and he was 18 — they were both very immature back then,” an insider explains, recalling the pair’s brief but high-profile 2012 relationship that saw them going on dates to NYC’s Central Park, having sleepovers at her Manhattan apartment and vacationing together in the Caribbean over the New Year’s holiday. 

“Yes, Harry broke her heart,” the insider adds, but unlike some of her other exes, after the early sting wore off, “she and Harry actually became friends again.” 

Now they’re getting a second chance at romance. 

“The rumors are true — Taylor’s talking to Harry again,” the insider says, “and friends are buzzing that this could end with them getting back together.”

A lot has changed since Taylor was photographed leaving the British Virgin Islands alone on a boat in early 2013 while Harry, 29, remained behind, signaling the end of their three-month romance. 

“One thing about Taylor is that she never gives up on love,” the source says. The singer “knows timing is everything.” 

Harry has been single since splitting from actress-director Olivia Wilde last November after two years of dating. Taylor’s six-year romance with British actor Joe Alwyn ended this spring. Though she enjoyed a month-long fling with another Brit, 1975 frontman Matty Healy in May, that ran its course too.

“She learned her lesson after being so public, so fast with Matty,” says the insider, noting the rock star was seen meeting her dad, mingling with her famous friends and cheering Taylor on at concerts. “Her love life will be more under wraps going forward.” 

Taylor and Matty went their separate ways in early June. 

“Once that was over, Harry just started popping into Taylor’s head,” the source says. They shared some memorable conversations, which were caught on camera, at the Grammys in recent years, and during the February ceremony, Taylor stood up in support of her ex when hecklers shouted that Beyoncé should have won Album of the Year as Harry took the stage to accept the award. 

“She’s watched Harry from afar and has been very impressed by his growth as an artist but especially by his relationship with Olivia — she thought he handled that like a true gentleman,” the insider adds. “Taylor can see how mature Harry’s become and she respects and admires that.”

Rob Sheffield’s work mentioning Haylor

His 2024 book, Heartbreak is the National Anthem “There's no other breakup song tradition quite like the Haylor mythology. Whatever their brief romance meant to them in real life, neither ever dishes one speck of dirt about it — high road all the way. They serve each other as muses, trading songs back and forth. Haylor is a unique case of two brilliant pop minds who keep tossing these paper airplanes back and forth for years, not because there's any bad blood, but because it's a creative gold mine.“

50 “Style” (2014)

Not always a subtle one, our Tay. This extremely 1986-sounding synth-pop groove is full of hushed-breath melodrama, where even the guy taking off his coat can feel like a plot twist. (Why would he keep his coat on? This is his apartment.) And the long-running songwriting badminton between her and Harry Allegedly is pop call-and-response the way it ought to be – no matter how much misery it might bring into their personal lives, for the rest of us it means one great tune after another.Best line: “You got that James Dean daydream look in your eye/And I got that red lip classic thing that you like.” Listen here.

Pleasing's at it again....

The @ "AT" symbol - AT🪞TA - Taylor Alison

Also Bre, I'll discuss below 👇🏼

Bob Dylan's song "From A Buick 6" is playing in this clip...

Also "Bre", that's embroidered using a CHAIN-STITCH...🔗🔗🔗

BRE, name meaning: In Celtic and Gaelic contexts, "Bre" can mean "HILL" or "high place"

"STYLE is a HILL"

A metaphorical phrase that suggests a person's writing style, like a hill, has its own unique shape, elevation, and contours, implying that it can be distinctive, sometimes challenging to climb (complex), and can offer different perspectives depending on where you stand on it.

This gentleman with the EAGLE 🦅 tattoo on his bicep PULLS A PUPPY OUT OF THR BAG, like a metaphorical MARY POPPINS (M.P. or PM) - remember Harry's Birth Year is the Chinese Year of the DOG - 1994

Also the line of people Pleasing showcased...I quickly paused and screen shot the video, so there is potential for way more connections....

It’s so funny how Treacherous’ secret message is ‘Won’t Stop Till It’s Over’ which is a line from Sweet Disposition by The Temper Trap, and automatically people link it to Jake because of All Too Well, even though the theme of Treacherous does not match any of the events of the Gyllenswift relationship, and the song itself was written in spring 2012 during/after the Haylor fling in April, with the same co-writer as ‘Come Back Be Here’ (which happens to be a song about Harry), and written consecutively in two days along with ‘Come Back Be Here’.

Then we get Harry tweeting Sweet Disposition song lyrics twice in April 2012 during the Haylor fling (April 6 and April 23),

Gets a tattoo of Sweet Disposition lyrics ‘Won’t stop till we surrender’ on 16 June 2012 (which he got the lyrics wrong, but still).

(Not a coincidence that the Treacherous secret message is ‘Won’t stop till it’s over, which is a line right before Harry’s tattoo lyrics ‘Won’t stop till we surrender’)

And Taylor calls the song as her favourite song in an interview in Oct 2012 (during the time when she was already dating Harry), Sure Taylor has liked the song since 2009 but it’s pretty telling that the song is still her favourite in 2012, which also happens to be Harry’s favourite song at the time as well.

Then Taylor approached The Temper Trap at the 2012 ARIAs to get the correct lyrics for Harry’s birthday, which is further proof that the song is significant to their relationship.

At this point we can safely argue that Sweet Disposition has become more of a Haylor thing than a Gyllenswift thing, yet people still scoff at us when we say the song is possibly about Harry…. *rolls eyes* Treacherous being about Harry is just as valid an interpretation as it is being about Jake or John.

I fort to add this CRUCIAL evidence to this theory...

The BASE (and FLIER) of

the SWAN

To perform the Dirty Dancing SWAN 🦢 (or Table Top 👀) you need a strong BASE

BASE connects back to Teardrops On My Guitar, when Taylor pours the Baking Soda (a BASE) into the liquid (probably vinegar) and it erupts 🌋

...and there HE (Harry Edward) goes, so perfectly...PLEASING? 🤭

The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star 💫

✨🌌✨🌠✨🌌✨

It's hard to see, but in the "shooting star" visual at the end of Taylor's hand - there is a shooting star that flashes across the screen in End Game music video 🌠

⬇️ This visual doesn't completely "fit" into this story, but it worked in the video I made for TT, and who doesn't love this Heart 💔 Break PRINCE 🥰

I would wish for this star too 🌟

last but not least, as I always say, this is a group project...and someone very bright noticed this and sent it to me 😊

Romeo & Juliet (Claire Danes version) 2.0

What in my haylor heart is this Austen-esque Little Women remake with a bumpin’ soundtrack?



I have been watching this far too many times to admit: analyzing the chronology, the body language, the breathing, and reading their eyes. Harry must’ve been happy in some ways to wear Covid masks and feel less exposed. He was sure to obscure his mouth, so we couldn’t read his lips. He always is aware of being filmed. I’m annoyed that he had four minutes and 30 seconds left before he had to sit down. He could’ve talked to Taylor for at least four more minutes and hence I’d have more to analyze. Bless whatever video editing genius who spliced this together for me and made my Sunday. I feel like Taylor is the embodiment of “the lakes” that evening. Calling to him to escape together which then they did. I believe this to be when Late Nate Talking was cooking and Midnights. They received Grammys this night for music they wrote about each other. This clip needs to win Best Picture-Short Film. Her dress was very language-of-flowers. They speak to each other in so many secret languages and I’m quite sure this dress was speaking to him in many ways. I could go on, but I must watch again. Also, if you believe that William Bowery is Harry (as I do), she thanks him in her speech, but has to say “Joe”. In evermore she sings about when I got up to the podium I think that I forgot to say your name. They make me so wistful. It’s like watching Sense & Sensibility or Age of Innocence. Our secret moments in a crowded room…

Didn't Taylor tweet something on Valentine's Day 2014 does it have to do anything with Harry

It was on 11 February which was the day Shirley Temple passed, it was a Shirley Temples quote and Taylor also posted about her passing on Twitter.

That said, her choice of quote was really interesting. As is that it was the same day she shared the hair cut video thought to include Harry.

LOT is a synonym for KARMA

IKYWT muse connects to Harry

Harry is a synonym for RUIN

Taylor uses RUIN a LOT in her lyrics

Harry is Daylight and the FUTURE is BRIGHT

112, I believe means ONE Twelve

which connects to Harry by his DOB: 1 FEB ~ 1/2 🇬🇧, or FEB 1 ~ 2/1 🇺🇸

Harry CONNECTS to MIDNIGHT 🕛

And the letter U, 21st letter of the alphabet

and last but never least,

The "mUSe" in IKYWT was

Reeve Carney

Reeve - "bailiff" or "steward"

Carney - "victorious" or "warlike"

TAYLOR NATION told us we needed a Dictionary...definitions, etymology, and meaning of names, have helped code this story

Happy Valentine's Day to all the HAYLORS!

Take note of her T-SHirt from the movie Valentine's Day . . .

H - HENDERSON

The surname Henderson is of Scottish origin and means "son of Henry" or "son of Hendry"

"SON OF HENRY"

A nickname for HENRY is HARRY...

Happy 10 years to STYLE music video

@taylornation decided to celebrate by posting a on IG and running a poll on X

showcasing LOML

"Haylor" seems to be a taboo word

and it's sad that the entire fandom posting comments on this IG post doesn't even connect the date...

FEBRUARY 13, the day Taylor made an entire music video about the LOVE (and LOSS) of her LIFE

Elephant in the Room 🐘

The metaphorical elephant in the room represents an obvious problem or difficult situation that people do not want to talk about.

TK showing up to the Superbowl with this Elephant pendant hanging from his neck, is reminiscent to the Paper Airplane worn by Harry and Taylor...

It got me thinking, he's the elephant in the room

As well as this guy,

That's Harry and Nick Grimshaw "Grimmy" leaving a late night party November 30 2013,

again the metaphorical ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM, because we all knew who was under that head

But the elephant got me thinking,

Taylor has an elephant figurine in her Back to December MV, seen below, behind her head

Also take note,

the key hanging from the lamp (see IKYWT Taymojis - if I have photo space I'll post a picture, but the key on that set has a "OD" on it 🗝️)

clock that ~appears~ to read 5:30 (5+3=8/♾️)

SHIP painting (e.g. SHIP TAT on 12/18)

and, BLUE STRIPE bed SHEETS . . .

Back To December music video was (first) released to YouTube on FEBRUARY 1, 2011 - HARRY'S BIRTHDAY (1/2 🇬🇧 or 2/1 🇺🇸)

The scene where sitting Taylor is in the kitchen, you see a bike 🚲

but notice how the chairs are the similar, if not the same, as Harry's Better Home and Garden photoshoot

The chairs have the V back

Harry's big TOE (a la Taylor/Joe's stunt) is popping out of his sock and his PAJAMAS are a similar BLUE STRIPE bed sheets seen above ⬆️

The peeled orange 🍊 in the Better Home and Garden photoshoot, possibly alludes to Harry ~so randomly, lol ~ peeling the orange at the 2013 VMAs (while Rihanna eats popcorn 🍿, she was entertained...go google it!)

Penny, Mastering Spanish, Max, TWINS
