As Taylor Swift’s fans worldwide eagerly await the summer release of her re-recorded album, “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)”, an interesting dynamic is unfolding with Taylor Lautner, Swift’s former boyfriend.<\/span><\/p>\n Lautner, who was in the limelight during their dating period due to his “Twilight” fame, has expressed his supportive anticipation for the album that includes songs possibly referencing their relationship.<\/span><\/p>\n During their relationship in 2009, Lautner was the inspiration for Swift’s poignant song “Back to December.” This romantic liaison, forever embedded in the song, will once again come into focus with the album’s re-release.<\/span><\/p>\n Despite the potential for renewed scrutiny, Lautner remains sanguine about the album and its implications.<\/span><\/p>\n His positive sentiment about “Speak Now” as a great album and his self-assured stance on being possibly referenced in previously unheard tracks display an optimistic outlook.<\/span><\/p>\n While Lautner seems unperturbed, he humorously highlighted his concern for John Mayer, another of Swift’s romantic interests from the same year.<\/span><\/p>\n Mayer’s relationship with Swift reportedly inspired the harsher breakup song “Dear John.” Mayer’s candid confession about feeling humiliated and undeserving of the negative portrayal makes Lautner’s playful statement of “praying for John” a striking remark.<\/span><\/p>\n While Lautner’s past with Swift is being rekindled through the album’s anticipation, his personal life has been a heartwarming narrative.<\/span><\/p>\n Lautner’s wife, Taylor Dome, whom he has been married to for six months, shares a unique love story with him.<\/span><\/p>\n Introduced by Lautner’s sister, Makena, Dome, a registered nurse with no particular interest in the celebrity world, initially did not recognize Lautner’s romantic interest in her. This unexpected beginning formed the foundation of their relationship.<\/span><\/p>\n Mayer’s relationship with Swift reportedly inspired the harsher breakup song “Dear John.” Mayer’s candid confession about feeling humiliated and undeserving of the negative portrayal makes Lautner’s playful statement of “praying for John” a striking remark.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>\r\n\r\n Amid the buzz about Swift’s album, Lautner and Dome are actively promoting their podcast, “The Squeeze.”<\/span><\/p>\n The podcast is a passion project for the couple, providing a platform for guests to share personal stories in a safe and comfortable space.<\/span><\/p>\n The Lautners divide their roles harmoniously, making their collaboration a smooth and productive one.<\/span><\/p>\n Their complementary dynamic, with Dome handling most of the groundwork and Lautner adding the star power, has so far been a successful formula for their podcast.<\/span><\/p>\n The couple’s recent trip to London has been a nostalgic journey. Early in their relationship, Lautner invited Dome to join him in London, where he was filming a show.<\/span><\/p>\n Despite their brief acquaintance, Dome agreed to visit him, marking a crucial turning point in their romance.<\/span><\/p>\n This trip to London, which they recently revisited, encapsulates a cherished memory of their early days together.<\/span><\/p>\n The Lautners’ relationship has been characterized by a refreshing normality, a quality that Dome values greatly.<\/span><\/p>\n They lead what they describe as “normie” lives, a stark contrast to the typical glitzy Hollywood lifestyle.<\/span><\/p>\n Lautner, who confesses that his early fame caused him to miss out on some routine life experiences, appreciates Dome’s influence in bringing a sense of normalcy into his life.<\/span><\/p>\n The anticipation for Swift’s re-recorded album “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)” continues to mount ahead of its July 7 release.<\/span><\/p>\n While Swift’s fans are excitedly counting down the days, the Lautners are relishing their unique love story, away from the limelight.<\/span><\/p>\n Their grounded approach to life underscores the fact that fame and normalcy can coexist harmoniously.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":159798,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[410],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-159797","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-art-and-culture"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159797"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=159797"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/159797\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/159798"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=159797"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=159797"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=159797"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Revisiting the Past with a Sense of Optimism<\/b><\/h2>\n
