It seems that the friendship between the stars Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran for more than a decade is facing a real test, after the release of Swift’s new album, Life of a Showgirl, sparked a dispute between them, according to what was revealed by RadarOnline.
Taylor Swift has an unexpected confrontation with Ed Sheeran over the timing of the release of her new album
Reports indicated that Ed Sheeran, who released his latest album Play on September 12, was upset after Taylor released her album only a few weeks later, causing his album to be removed from the top of the music charts.
The Daily Mail quoted a music industry source as saying that Sheeran takes the timing of his releases seriously, and had carefully planned the release of his album before Swift suddenly announced her new work, which some described as a cunning move that confused his work team.
This is not the first time that Taylor has been accused of such steps; It has previously released new versions of its albums to prevent singers such as Charli XCX and Billie Eilish from topping the album charts in Britain and the United States.
The relationship between Swift and Sheeran extends for more than ten years, since their collaboration on the song Everything Has Changed in 2012, and their friendship strengthened after he participated in her concert tours and attended special events together. But it seems the latest music competition has put their friendship to the test.
This dispute comes after Swift also separated from her old friend Blake Lively due to legal disputes related to her new movie, which raised speculation about a change in the circle of people close to the international star, who is experiencing one of her most controversial artistic periods.
