As we previously told you,Taylor Swift announced she would only be playing a handful of festivals and “Lover Fests” to support her album “Lover.” At the time she explained her decision by saying she felt the album “is open fields and sunsets and SUMMER,” but it seems the real reason may have to do with her mother’s battle with cancer.
During her interview with Zane Lowe she commented about how fans were unhappy with how few shows she’d be playing, and she noted, "I know, but change happens not only in my career, but in my life. And I've got some pretty intense things happening with my family right now."
Taylor explained, “I can't go on long tours and not have the ability to go home if I need to. I have priorities that aren't just touring now, and [the fans] have been really respectful of that in the past” noting, “I have to be able to have some breathing room in my touring schedule and I think they kind of understand that."
