Taylor Swift is offering insight into dad Scott Swift’s health after his heart surgery.
“He’s doing so great,” Swift, 35, said during an appearance on SiriusXM’s “Morning Mash Up” Monday, October 6. “By his own accord, he’s actually at 150 percent now. So he’s definitely got too much energy. He’s doing amazing. I’m so happy. To contextualize this, my dad had a quintuple bypass surgery over the summer.”
Us Weekly confirmed in July that Scott was in recovery after undergoing a heart procedure the month prior. TMZ reported at the time that Taylor, brother Austin Swift and mom Andrea Swift were supporting Scott amid his health journey and surgery, which happened after a routine check-up.
“The biggest part of our summer was, as a family, just taking care of him and getting him back to his old self,” Taylor explained on Monday. “He had amazing medical care and help. The doctors and nurses that I’m going to be forever grateful for. It recontextualizes to you what matters, honestly. It really does. Thank you for mentioning that because it reminds me how lucky I am that he pulled through.”
Taylor Swift’s Dad Scott Swift Undergoes Quintuple Bypass Heart Surgery
The father-daughter duo have had a close relationship through the years, with Scott being known for giving Swifties guitar picks featuring her latest album at her shows and beyond. Taylor confirmed that Scott is currently carrying The Life of a Showgirl-themed guitar picks after the release of her 12th studio album on Friday, October 3.
The album, which Swift recorded between concerts on her Eras Tour, quickly broke records across streaming platforms including Apple Music and Spotify.
“One thing about this album that I think is really exciting is that, oftentimes when I make a record, we then take all this time to plan out how we’re going to put it out,” Swift said during a Friday interview on the U.K.’s Hits Radio station. “There’s a little lag time between when I made it and when it enters the world. Oftentimes, your life can change drastically between that point and this other point.”
She continued, “With this one, the coolest part is that it is absolutely the place that I am in my life. The music matches the moment I’m in. It’s so much easier to come in here [for an interview] and talk about the music that completely, accurately reflects what’s going on in my life.”
Taylor Swift’s Close Relationship With Her Dad Scott Swift Through the Years
While some fans have speculated that Swift may be done creating music after her marriage to Travis Kelce — whom she announced her engagement to in August, the pop star shut down the idea.
“That’s a shockingly offensive thing to say. It’s not why people get married, so they can quit their job,” Swift said during a Monday, October 6, interview with the U.K.’s BBC Radio 2. “It’s like, I love the person that I am with because he loves what I do, and he loves how much I am fulfilled by making art and making music.”
She continued, “That’s the coolest thing about Travis; he’s so passionate about what he does that me being passionate about what I do, it connects. There’s no point in time where he’s gonna be like, ‘I’m really upset that you’re still making music.’ Imagine [him saying], ‘The music that I signed up for, that I knew you love, I thought you were going to stop doing that.’”
