Taylor Swift’s parents, Scott Swift and Andrea Swift, have been her biggest support system since the early days of her career. The pop star has a close relationship with her mom and dad, who were in the crowd at most shows of her Eras tour in 2023.
The proud parents also accompanied Taylor to her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s football game on Christmas Day 2023. They all sat in a private suite and cheered on the Kansas City Chiefs star. So, who are the parents who raised one of the world’s most influential celebrities?
When Did Taylor Swift’s Parents Get Married?
Scott and Andrea tied the knot in February 1998. Taylor, who was born in December 1989, was their first child, followed by a son, Austin, in March 1992. The couple raised their children on a Christmas tree farm in Pennsylvania before relocating to Hendersonville, Tennessee to support Taylor’s country music career in 2004.
Even before they relocated permanently, Andrea, who was born in 1958, was often taking trips to Nashville with Taylor so the then-teenager could drop her demos off with record labels. “My mom waited in the car with my little brother while I knocked on doors up and down Music Row,” the “Blank Space” singer shared in 2008. “I would say, ‘Hi, I’m Taylor. I’m 11. I want a record deal. Call me.”
While Scott and Andrea are set for life thanks to their daughter’s incredible career, they were both employed before she became a superstar. Andrea worked as a marketing manager for an advertising agency and eventually stopped working to raise her family. Scott was a stockbroker and financial advisor for Merill Lynch.
