Taylor went out with the middle JoBro from July to October 2008. The country crooner-turned-pop star would go on to famously slam Joe for his 25-second phone breakup with her, but during a May 2019 appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Taylor admitted she regretted some of the remarks she made about him and their split. “Probably when I, like, put Joe Jonas on blast on your show,” she told the talk show host of her most rebellious act as a teenager. “That was too much, that was too much. I was 18… We laugh about it now, but that was mouthy, yeah, some teenage stuff there.” Needless to say, Joe appreciated the apology. “It did feel nice,” he said of Taylor’s statement a couple of weeks later on ITV’s Lorraine show. “It’s something that I was probably feeling pretty bad about when I was younger, but, at the end of the day, I’ve moved on. I’m sure Taylor’s moved on. It feels nice. We’re all friends. It’s all good. We were so young.” As for where he lies in the mindfield of exes Taylor has written songs about, Speak Now‘s “Last Kiss” and Fearless‘ “Forever and Always” are said to be about Joe.
