The pop star reportedly dropped everything to stick by her father, Scott Swift‘s, side as he recuperates from a heart surgery he went in for last month.

Taylor Swift has enjoyed immeasurable support from her father and mother, Andrea Swift, since her career picked up nearly two decades ago. He made several cameos at her recently concluded Eras Tour.

The 73-year-old was rushed in for a crucial heart surgery after a routine checkup where the doctor advised him to go for a timely procedure.

The quintuple procedure reportedly happened about a month ago, and Taylor was joined by her mom and brother, Austin, to offer moral and emotional support to the stockbroker.

Sources close to the singer clarified to TMZ that the surgery did not happen due to the heart attack he experienced, but it just needed to be done. Scott’s quintuple bypass is performed on patients with blockages in the major arteries that supply the heart with blood.

According to Regimen Healthcare, the procedure involves taking blood vessels from a part of the body and transplanting them into the affected heart vessels to reroute the blood supply and bypass the blocked arteries.

Scott and Andrea were pivotal to Taylor’s success story, as they helped nurture her talent from a young age. “She was always singing music when she was 3, 5, 6, 7 years old. It’s Taylor doing what she likes to do,” Scott noted. 

According to PEOPLE, her mom once shared that they needed to become a safe space for the singer as soon as she started making a name for herself, which explains their involvement in her career to date.

The pair married in 1988 and welcomed Taylor a year later in 1989. Three years later, she got a sibling, Austin, and together they grew up on a 15-acre Christmas tree farm in Pennsylvania.

The family relocated to Nashville after Taylor signed a deal with Sony at the age of 14, and from there, she debuted on the big stage at the Grand Ole Opry as a country act in 2006.

Since Scott and Andrea had a solid background in the professional world, Taylor once shared that her name did not come by accident. In a 2009 interview with Rolling Stone, she revealed that her parents chose a fluid name, “Taylor,” to lower the risk of discrimination in the corporate world.

Early in her career, the singer noted that her mom would drive her to Nashville and even share demos of her musicians with the public.

The billionaire is equally as passionate about her family as they are about her, and even in the darkest moments of her life, their safety remains her priority. She recently secured an extension to an existing restraining order against a stalker earlier in the month in a bid to protect her loved ones. 

As reported by The Blast, the extended order remains in place until July 21, after which a decision will be made on whether to make it permanent or not. Taylor initially requested that her stalker be ordered to stay at least 100 yards away from her home and vehicle.

Taylor was heartbroken by the reality that privacy stands the risk of being compromised by weird fans, but she also understands that it comes with the job. She has also decided not to lose sleep about it as she “can’t stress about it more than she already does.”

Taylor’s legal team, in their petition against the stalker identified as Jason Brian Wagner, provided evidence of disturbing texts from him, in which he referred to her as his “wife” and asked to accompany her to the “Golden Globes Awards.”

In more exciting news, Taylor and her NFL beau, Travis, made their first-ever red carpet appearance as a couple at the Tight End University opening night in Nashville last month.

The artist had such a swell time at the event that she performed her hit song “Shake It Off” on an acoustic guitar in front of an impromptu audience who adored the performance.

The singer reportedly approached singer Kane Brown on stage, requesting his guitar, and took his band through a brief tutorial of the right notes to play for the song.

Her boyfriend also gave an excellent review of the performance in an episode of his “New Heights” podcast with former Eagles player Jason Kelce.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end noted that her connection with Nashville as an essential place in her career made it easy for her to let loose and give the audience a well-deserved show.

The celebrity couple appeared hand in hand in Travis’ hometown of Ohio, earlier in the month, after an eventful June. The performer’s latest trip to the Cleveland suburb marked the third time she had visited the area since joining his family for a game in 2023.

This time, the couple had a timeout at JoJo’s Bar in Chagrin Falls for a quick bite alongside tons of memories about Kelce’s family and the restaurant. The footballer’s mom, Donna Kelce, reportedly fancied the Italian-American steakhouse, which opened in 2021, and was a regular customer.

The singer first came to Cleveland in 2018 when she was on the “Reputation” tour, but could not extend the same favor for her Eras Tour. Either way, Taylor and Travis reportedly had a great time at the establishment.
