They are never ever getting back together — but they might still be speaking. Though Taylor Swift is known for dropping hints about her famous relationships in her song lyrics, she’s actually on good terms with several of her ex-boyfriends.
One of the “Begin Again” songstress’ most high-profile romances was her brief liaison with fellow pop star Harry Styles. The former One Direction member and Swift dated from late 2012 to early 2013. Perhaps because he’s a songwriter himself, Styles never had any problems with his ex-girlfriend penning tunes about their time together.
“It would be hypocritical for me to say she couldn’t do it because everybody writes songs based on personal experience,” Styles told Us Weekly in August 2013. “I can’t say I’d have dated someone less famous to avoid it.”
In the same interview, he also praised her ability to turn a phrase. “At least she’s a great songwriter!” he quipped.
