Taylor Swift and Jaime Kings unlikely friendship, revealed: the Anti-Hero singer is a godmo
Taylor Swift is famous for her squad of (very talented) A-list friends, but less is known about her low-key friendship with Jaime King.
The American model-turned-actress, who’s 10 years older than the “Anti-Hero” singer, used to be considered one of Swift’s BFFs back in the day. In fact, they were so close that King even asked Swift to be the godmother of her second baby, Leo Thames. “She’s going to be, like, the best godmother in the whole world,” King previously told People. “The best.”Although King used to share pics of the pair hanging out together when she was pregnant and after she gave birth, it’s unclear whether they are still as close today.
Nevertheless, King does continue to refer to Swift’s music in her Instagram captions, with one in December reading: “I’ve been the archer….” seemingly referring to Swift’s song “The Archer”. The post sent Reddit users into a frenzy trying to figure out whether they’re still besties.

King is clearly a mega-fan of Swift’s music, whatever their friendship status. In 2014, King sang her friend’s praises in an interview with E!, saying: “This album [Swift’s 1989], I could not tell you how amazing it is. I’m trying to wrack my brain to try to think of an album that I’ve loved this much in the past 10 years. It’s very difficult for me to think of one that’s so solid as an album, all the way through as a whole.”
