Joe Jonas and Taylor Swift are perfectly fine.
That’s according to Jonas, one of Swift’s ex-boyfriends, who clarified his stance with the “Lavender Haze” singer during an appearance on Tuesday’s episode of the “Armchair Expert” podcast.
“I’m cool with Taylor. We are cool,” he said.
Jonas, one-third of the Jonas Brothers group, briefly dated Swift in 2008.
Needless to say, things didn’t work out for the couple and when Swift appeared on the ‘Ellen DeGeneres Show’ in 2008 after the couple split, she didn’t hesitate when asked about Jonas. .
“When I look at this person, I won’t even remember the boy who broke up with me on the phone in 25 seconds when I was 18,” Swift told host Ellen DeGeneres after saying she would eventually find the right guy. and that she wrote the breakup song “Forever & Always” about Jonas.
The Swifties are known to be fiercely defensive of their ‘anti-hero’, so that comment didn’t sit well with Jonas, who said on the podcast on Tuesday that he felt the ire of the base. of fans of her ex at the time when he was now “many, many, many years removed.
But we know “all too well” that time tends to heal things, so when Swift appeared on the “Ellen DeGeneres Show” again in 2019, she expressed remorse for putting Jonas “on the breath” a decade previously.
“It was too much,” Swift added, adding that they were “laughing about it now.”
Jonas – who is married to ‘Game of Thrones’ star Sophie Turner – said in the podcast on Tuesday that when it comes to the Swifties, “I hope to think they like me” these days.
“Nobody fucks with the Swifties, you know?”
