Fans’ theories about what Taylor Swift is getting up to her in downtime as preparations get underway for first Liverpool Eras Tour concert: From hiding out at a £3m Cotswolds bolthole to catching up with her A-list celebrity pals

As megastar Taylor Swift prepares for her first Liverpool Eras Tour concert, fans are speculating on how she’s spending her free time in the rainy UK. The 34-year-old is fresh off the heels of performing in Edinburgh, where at one point she was forced to pause a song because her hands were so cold and one turned into a ‘claw’ from the cramp.

She may have hoped for sunny summer weather, but she has been welcomed to the country with wind, rain and cold temperatures. So the American singer might be longing to warm up as she bolts up in a £3.3million Cotswolds cottage for the remainder of her tour. The Sun reported that Swift is rumored to have booked the rural stay because the countryside is her ‘happy place’.

But the singer is often spotted in London and the Lake District, which have both featured in her lyrics, with fans speculating as to where she may return. The Cotswolds cottage is conveniently located close to the celebrity haunt and private members’ club Soho Farmhouse near Chipping Norton in Oxfordshire. Other famous locals include David Cameron, Kate Moss, Simon Cowell and Amanda Holden. It is reported that her NFL star boyfriend Travis Kelce, 34, will be ‘joining her for a getaway’.

The pop sensation performed three consecutive nights at Murrayfield Stadium in Scotland. Posting on Instagram today, she said: ‘Edinburgh! You truly blew me away this weekend. Thank you for breaking the all-time attendance record for a stadium show in Scotland three times in a row and for all the ways you made us feel right at home. ‘Love you, all 220,000 of you!’

On her visits to the UK, Swift has been spotted for the most part in London, even writing the song ‘London Boy’ with lyrics about the city, including popular Camden Town. True to form, the singer has been snapped with model and actress Cara Delevingne in the capital on Friday. She caught Cara Delevingne’s penultimate performance in ‘Cabaret’ wearing a blue Stella McCartney sweater. Swift traded her Eras Tour costumes for something cosier in lieu of the chilly weather, as seen in a picture of the friends hugging backstage.
