Taylor is not an avid social media user, and thus, her comment and reaction to Selena’s post stand as proof of their strong bond. According to TODAY, both the singers Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez became friends in 2008. Reportedly, when they met, they were still in a relationship with members of the Jonas Brothers. Selena and Nick Jonas were together, while Taylor Swift was dating Joe Jonas.
For the last 16 years, these two independently strong artists have been friends. Further, as Selena is ready to walk down the aisle, and if everything falls in the right place for Travis and Taylor, then Swift will also not take too long to follow suit.
