Taylor Swift's magical relationship

Taylor Swift is in a "magical" relationship with Calvin Harris.

The 'New Romantics' singer has been dating the Scottish DJ for over a year but is doing her best to keep their romance "low key" and out of the spotlight.

She said: "I'm just taking things as they come.

"I'm in a magical relationship right now. And of course I want it to be ours, and low key...This is the one thing that's been mine about my personal life."

The 26-year-old star, who previously dated the likes of Jake Gyllenhaal, Harry Styles and Taylor Lautner, admitted the attention on her personal life put her off dating for a long time before she met the 'Summer' hitmaker.

She told America's Vogue magazine: "You know, I went out on a normal amount of dates in my early 20s, and I got absolutely slaughtered for it.

"And it took a lot of hard work and altering my decision-making. I didn't date for two and a half years. Should I have had to do that? No."

Taylor also admitted she finds it frustrating when people mock her friendship "squad" but thinks the best way to stand against the criticism is for them to carry on regardless.

She explained: "Ugh. I've had people say really hurtful things about me, and so I've kind of learned how to gauge it: 'This is, like, low-to-medium-level hurtful.'

"There are a lot of really easy ways to dispel rumours. If they say you are pregnant, all you have to do is continue to not be pregnant and not have a baby.

"If the rumour is that you have fake friendships, all you have to do is continue to be there for each other.

"And when we're all friends in 15 years and raising our kids together, maybe somebody will look back and go, 'That was kind of ridiculous what we said about Taylor and her friends.'"
