Singer Calvin Harris' wife and journalist, Vick Hope, seemingly admitted to being a Taylor Swift fan. Hope revealed on her show, Going Home with Vick, Katie and Jamie, that she occasionally listens to her husband’s ex’s (Taylor) music. On April 8, 2024, the TV presenter added that she does it when Harris is not around:

“As soon as my husband goes away, I listen to Taylor Swift. That’s just when I get my little fill, just a couple of songs, get it out of my system and then it’s done.”

Vick and Harris tied the knot in September 2023, seven years after the latter’s breakup with Swift.

For the unversed, Calvin Harris and Taylor Swift made their relationship official via an Instagram post in April 2015. They made numerous public appearances together and also attended the Billboard Music Awards as a couple in 2015. After 15 months of dating, the couple called it quits in 2016, with Harris publicly criticizing Swift on X.
