Taylor Swift knows how to get people talking, and this time, it wasnโt because of an album drop or a surprise concert.
On Sunday night, the global superstar stepped out in Manhattan for a chic girlsโ night with longtime friend Selena Gomez, but it wasnโt their designer looks or dinner spot that stole the spotlight, it was Swiftโs visible โbump.โ
A Glam Nightโฆ and a Possible Clue?
The two singers were spotted leaving The Monkey Bar in Midtown, dressed to impress. Swift rocked a black two-piece set with shimmering silver trim, paired with metallic platform heels and her signature red lipstick. Gomez, meanwhile, glowed in a camel-toned halter top and matching trousers, with a jacket draped over her shoulders โ elegance all around.
But eagle-eyed fans werenโt focused on the outfits. They were focused on one subtle detail: a noticeable curve under Taylor’s top.
โIs Taylor expecting?โ one fan asked on social media. Others were bolder:
โTaylorโs definitely pregnant,โ one wrote.
โLowkey pregnant? That little baby bump says it all,โ another chimed in, setting the internet on fire with speculation.
Fan Frenzy Online
As images and videos circulated across X, Instagram, and Facebook, the comments poured in:
โHer face looks fuller than usual,โ one fan observed.
โAre we POSITIVE she isnโt pregnant?โ asked another.
Several pointed to her recent string of skipped public events as a possible sign that something personal, and major, might be happening behind the scenes.
While some fans celebrated the idea of a potential โBaby Swift,โ others urged caution:
โCould just be the outfit,โ a more measured voice suggested.
Still, the buzz only intensified thanks to Taylorโs noticeable absence from major events, including the 2025 American Music Awards and the Met Gala earlier this month.
A Quiet Season for Taylor โ Coincidence or Clue?
The multi-Grammy winner was a no-show at the AMAs on May 26, an absence that drew just as much attention as her presence usually would. Despite six nominations, Swift didnโt win any โ and fan theories exploded:
โMaybe she skipped because she knew they were going to snub her,โ one fan posted.
Others speculated it was a deliberate step back from the spotlight. One theory floated the idea that Swift was avoiding stress due to a pregnancy.
The Met Gala was no different. Though both Swift and boyfriend Travis Kelce were reportedly invited, neither attended. Fans noted that Swift hasnโt graced the Met steps since 2016, but this yearโs no-show, amid mounting rumors, raised eyebrows.
A Career Milestone, Quietly Celebrated
Just days before her NYC outing, Swift marked one of the biggest professional wins of her life โ reclaiming ownership of her entire music catalog.
In a heartfelt letter to fans, she revealed that after 20 years of struggling, she finally owns all of her masters โ music videos, concert films, photography, and even unreleased tracks.
โI really get to say these words: All of the music that I’ve ever madeโฆ now belongsโฆ to me,โ she wrote.
But despite the announcementโs significance, there was no press tour or glitzy celebration โ just a simple Instagram carousel and a note of thanks. Could the low-key rollout be another hint that Swift is prioritizing personal life over public fanfare?
Keeping Things Private with Travis Kelce
Meanwhile, Swift and Kelce have kept their relationship relatively under the radar in recent months. The couple was last seen enjoying a private date night in Florida, far from the red carpets and flashing cameras.
With rumors now swirling about a possible pregnancy, their desire for privacy seems even more intentional.
No Confirmation โ Yet
So, is Taylor Swift pregnant? At this point, itโs pure speculation. Thereโs been no confirmation from Swift or her reps, and as with most things in her world, sheโs playing it close to the vest.
Still, for Swifties, the combination of visual clues, public absences, and a glowing night out with Selena Gomez is more than enough to fuel hope and headlines.
Whether thereโs a baby on the way or not, one thingโs for sure:
Taylor Swift never steps into the spotlight without setting it ablaze.
