Shania Twain blames her no-show at Taylor Swift‘s wedding on Harry Styles!
The vocalist explained why she did not join the celebrity lineup at the singer’s wedding to her NFL footballer partner, citing work commitments to her former boyfriend as the reason.
Shania Twain has been a longtime fan of the Grammy winner, praising her amazing work ethic and commitment to art, much like Taylor Swift has praised her all these years.
The Canadian singer, in a catch-up with ETalk on Tuesday, July 14, expressed that she would have gone miles to be there because it would have been such a lovely experience. In an interesting twist, Twain revealed that she was held up fulfilling contract terms with Styles.
The former One Direction singer onboarded Twain to perform on the opening night of his 12-show residency at Wembley Stadium in London. Styles’ show clashed with Swift’s July 3 wedding, which was held at Madison Square Garden.
Styles and Swift dated between 2012 and 2013 in a highly publicized relationship, and their split fueled several conspiracy theories. Twain, in the interview, however, shared that she might redeem this moment during Styles’ wedding if he asks for her attendance at the event in advance.
Ironically, Styles’ current partner, Zoë Kravitz, was seated at Swift and Kelce’s wedding, partying with the couple until the middle of the night.
Twain Highlighted Similarity Between Her And Taylor Swift’s Journey
In 2024, Twain made some confessions in an interview with Haute Living about how she carved out a name for herself in the entertainment industry. The singer stressed that the whole time she was trying to be her original, authentic self, embracing her expressiveness with confidence.
As shared by PEOPLE, Twain then revisited instances where Swift had praised her in the past, praising her dedication and commitment to herself and her craft. Although people often call Swift an ambitious artiste, Twain added that her reality is much more than that, in her words:
“She’s an extremely hard worker, and I’m sure she’s got giant goals. But it’s not all about ambition: it’s about passion and committing yourself to your passion.” Twain also established that they are similar in their approach to career goals, embracing perseverance and reaping the rewards.
Inside Harry Styles’ And The ‘Shake It Off’ Singer’s Defunct Relationship
Styles and Swift have continued to maintain a mutual friendship over a decade after they dated. As shared by TODAY, the end of that relationship birthed Swift’s “1989” album, which came two years after their relationship.
Towards the end of 2012, rumors swirled about a possible romance between the duo when Styles spoke about Swift’s personality during an interview. By December, the pair were spotted walking together in Central Park before One Direction performed at MSG, where Swift married Kelce.
The relationship between Styles and Swift finally became clear on New Year’s Day in 2013, when they were spotted kissing during “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest” in New York’s Times Square.
That same January, Swift was pictured alone on a boat leaving the Virgin Islands days after they both arrived there. She later referred to the incident in her song “Is It Over Now.”
Zoë Kravitz Earned All The Praises For Styles’ Renewed Happiness
The actress and Styles began dating last year after they were spotted together in August 2025, and they engaged 8 months later, in April 2026. Sources also confirmed to PEOPLE that the couple have matching tattoos and have carried their unbreakable bond into their individual exploits.
The couple also prioritize spending quality time together outside their busy schedules by going on outdoor dates. “Zoë is so supportive of him, and every time both of them are free, they spend as much time together as possible,” an inside source continued.
Sources in the couple’s circle raved about the extent of their support to each other, adding that they have talked about wedding plans. Kravitz has been supporting Styles on his “Together, Together” world tour in support of his fourth studio album “Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally.”
Harry Styles Rumored To Start A Family Soon
The Grammy winner has reportedly begun planning for the next phase after his engagement to Kravitz, which may involve welcoming a little one soon. As shared by The Blast, Styles has never hidden his love for kids as he previously took a break from performing to be a part of his niece’s life, an experience that changed his perspective on life.
In January, an insider had revealed that the singer really wants a baby, and now that he is settling down with Kravitz, it may have intensified. Styles was beyond excited to be part of that experience as he watched his niece blossom.
“My sister had a baby, and at any other time in my life, I would have missed a lot of that. It was really obvious that was where I wanted to be,” the singer had explained previously. As for his relationship with Kravitz, everyone in his circle has testified to the positive influence she has had on his life as he has begun to open up more.
