Fan speculation that Taylor Swift is pregnant has been spiking.
Over the summer — long before the release of The Life of a Showgirl — Taylor kept a lower profile than usual. That’s in stark contrast from recent public appearances.
There can be a few reasons for that, but it’s a tried-and-true method of hiding a baby bump. We’ve seen it before.
Is Taylor pregnant? Is she hiding relationship troubles? Or is this something else? Here’s what we know:
Where in the world is Taylor Swift?
Back in July, a super rare video of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce hit the internet. Fans spotted the two in Park City, Utah.
Just days later, the two again went on a low-key outing. This time, a dinner date in New York.
In late March, reports had Taylor and Travis dining with Erin Andrews in Big Sky, Montana.
Notably, she apparently encouraged the two to date in the first place.
Sometimes, when a couple who was once virtually omnipresent starts acting private, it’s a red flag.
When a romance is on the rocks, people try to avoid public fights.
Especially when they are in the spotlight. Taylor and Travis are one of the planet’s most famous couples, and she’s someone who likes to plan ahead.
On the flip side, sometimes there’s a very different reason to hide.
When you want to hide your baby bump, you’d hide your whole body. And some fans wonder if Taylor is doing just that.
The most recent example, of course, was Taylor being protected by a barrier during Sunday’s Kansas City Chiefs-Philadelphia Eagles game.
Apparently, this famous couple just wants some peace and quiet
According to a report by Life & Style, an inside source assures that Taylor and Travis “are still very much in love.”
The insider characterized: “They’re simply recharging their batteries.”
Just as many introverts might need some alone time after a busy social event, some famous couples need to back down from whirlwind public appearances to nurture their relationship.
“Taylor’s been in rest-and-relaxation mode since she wrapped her Eras Tour in December,” the source shared.
According to the insider, “the plan has always been to enjoy the off-season with Travis by packing in a lot of travel.”
The sole exception to this downtime was the Grammy Awards in February.
That’s pretty can’t-miss for Taylor, for obvious reasons, even if she doesn’t always win.
Notably, Taylor skipped the VMAs in September.
But is she hiding a baby bump amidst all of this R&R?
The source went on to say that, after the Super Bowl “and all the pressure that went with it,” Taylor and Travis needed a long break.
“He desperately needed a break,” the insider dished. “So Taylor surprised him with a super private trip.”
The source elaborated: “They’ve been hitting the slopes in Park City and Big Sky, where they blended right in. It helps that they can cover up their faces when they’re skiing, since most people are wearing helmets, goggles or face coverings. They love the anonymity.”
Simply put, there is absolutely no proof of a Taylor pregnancy.
There have been no baby bump sightings.
Taylor is a conspicuously tall (relatively) and slender woman. Pregnancy would not hide for long.
If some sort of exciting news leaks, we’ll be thrilled to share it.
But for now, it sounds like Taylor and Travis are just trying to take it easy.
