THE RUNDOWN
- New details have emerged about Taylor Swift’s speech at Selena Gomez’s wedding this past weekend.
- A source told Entertainment Tonight that Swift gave a “pretty long speech.”
- An insider also told Us Weekly that Swift praised Gomez’s husband, Benny Blanco, and spoke about her friend’s journey in love.
Taylor Swift traveled to California to attend longtime friend Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s wedding this past weekend, where she delivered a speech. Just days after the ceremony, sources have revealed more about what Swift said in her remarks.
A source told Entertainment Tonight that Swift drew on the pair’s 17 years of friendship—and had a lot to say: “Taylor made a pretty long speech at the reception, mentioning inside jokes she shares with Selena.”
Shortly after, an insider gave Us Weekly more detail about what Swift discussed. “Taylor gave an extremely heartfelt speech at the wedding,” the source said. “She went into depth and talked about how over the years she saw Selena on the floor crying, mentioning exes, Selena having a broken heart, and saying how happy she is that Selena has Benny now.”
“[Taylor] said it is a best friend’s dream for her best friend to find someone like Benny and is so happy for her,” the insider added.
In 2020, both Swift and Gomez spoke about about their friendship to WSJ magazine for the outlet’s profile on Gomez. “There has always been this quality of sisterhood, and I don’t say that in a basic way,” Swift said of their bond. “I knew from when I met her, I would always have her back. In my life, I have the ability to forgive people who have hurt me. But I don’t know if I can forgive someone who hurts her.”
Gomez added, “There’s so much of my friendship with Taylor that people don’t know about because we don’t necessarily feel the need to post about everything we do. She has showed up for me in ways that I would have never expected. Flown in because I was hurt and was going through something. Stuff that was going on with my family. It’s been proven year after year and in every moment of my life that she is one of my best friends in the world. We don’t agree on everything, but we respect each other with everything.”
