Taylor Swift may be happily moving toward a future with Travis Kelce, but getting there was not easy. Her love life before him was messy and painful. She has never hidden her emotions. This time, she opened up in a new way. A behind the scenes moment from her record breaking Eras Tour showed how deeply her past breakups affected her. She spoke about the moments after her splits with Joe Alwyn and Matty Healy. She said those experiences truly let her down.
In the latest episode of Eras Tour The End of an Era, released on December 19, Taylor shared some very honest thoughts. She spoke about how men have often treated her like a brand and not like a human being. That mindset made her question herself at times. It even made her question her career. Still, her work ended up being the thing that saved her. During the documentary, she made rare comments about her breakups with Joe Alwyn and Matty Healy. Both relationships ended in 2023. This happened during the early phase of her world tour. This was the first time she openly spoke about them. Until now, she had only expressed those feelings through songs on The Tortured Poets Department.
She admitted that the tour was sometimes the only thing holding her together. She said there were moments when performing was the reason she kept going. Still, she made one thing clear. The tour itself was never the problem. She never wanted to quit because of the shows. Her personal life was what hurt the most.
Taylor shared that she went through 2 breakups during the first half of the tour. She said that was a lot to handle. It weighed heavily on her. Yet, her commitment to her music helped her survive it all. She said the tour gave her purpose. It gave her a reason to wake up every day. Performing helped her move forward when everything else felt broken. For her, the tour became a safe space during chaos.
She ended her thoughts with a line many fans are already repeating. She said men may disappoint you, but the Eras Tour never will.
