Sophie Turner, known for her role in Game of Thrones, was recently spotted in London sporting a cozy blue crewneck from Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, demonstrating her loyalty to her friend amidst the ongoing tour excitement.
On Friday, October 25, Turner, 28, paired the official Eras Tour sweatshirt with gray sweatpants and blue Adidas Gazelle sneakers, creating a casual yet stylish look perfect for a day out in the city. The darker blue sweatshirt prominently features the words “Taylor Swift Eras Tour,” although it seems to be a hot commodity as it’s currently unavailable for purchase on Swift’s official merchandise site. Fans looking for similar items have turned to platforms like eBay to snag their own versions of this popular merch.
Turner’s appreciation for Swift’s music isn’t just a recent development. She was previously seen with friends at one of the London shows during the Eras Tour, underscoring their long-standing friendship. Their bond dates back several years, highlighted by moments such as Turner cheering for Swift at the MTV VMAs in 2019, and the two hanging out in New York City.
The friendship has been particularly significant for Turner during her divorce from Joe Jonas. Sources revealed in September 2023 that she was staying in a New York City home owned by Swift during this challenging time. In her June 2024 British Vogue cover story, Turner expressed her gratitude, stating, “Taylor was an absolute hero to me this year. I’ve never been more grateful to anyone than I am for her because she took my children and me and provided us with a home and a safe space. She really has a heart of gold.”
As Turner celebrates the release of her new series Joan on The CW, she still has a few chances to catch her friend on tour. Swift has been thrilling fans with her performances, having recently played at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans on October 25, with two more nights scheduled at the same venue on October 26 and 27. After that, the tour will head to Indianapolis, Toronto, and Vancouver, marking the conclusion of this leg of shows.
During her recent performances, Swift took a moment to acknowledge the joy her fans have brought to the tour, specifically mentioning the friendship bracelets that have become a beloved tradition at her shows. “You’ve created traditions,” Swift told her audience, as captured in a fan video shared on X (formerly Twitter). “You’ve created this mass movement of joy every time we play a show. And it makes me so proud, it really does.”
“I just showed up one day and you guys were trading friendship bracelets, and I was like, ‘That’s cool,'” she said, reflecting on the unplanned development of friendship bracelet trading among fans. “Now, there is a giant friendship bracelet on the outside of this stadium.” our is really kind of them to do for us, but even more kind of you to make things that exceeded my expectations for our tour.
With Turner’s show of support and Swift’s heartfelt gratitude to her fans, it’s clear that the bonds of friendship and community are at the forefront of this tour, making it an unforgettable experience for all involved.
