When photos came out of TAYLOR SWIFT spending the Fourth of July holiday with the Kennedy family in Cape Cod, Massachusetts . . . people guessed it was because she was dating 18-year-old PATRICK SCHWARZENEGGER. But then a few weeks later, she went to Cape Cod AGAIN and this time it was clear she had something going on with CONOR KENNEDY, the grandson of RFK.

Conor and Taylor kept it going and soon after were photographed hanging out at a couple of restaurants in Nashville where they signed autographs for giggling girls.  Towards the end of August things got weird when the two of them CRASHED a Kennedy family wedding after being told to stay away.  

Meanwhile, back in Nashville, Taylor was missing Conor so much she sent a private jet to Massachusetts to haul him back to her place.  And in a somewhat creepy move, she ALSO looked into buying a house near the Kennedy compound. Sometime in October the fairytale ended . . . and we all found out that Conor and Taylor had broken up.

But wait, that left two more months till year's end for Taylor to start something else . . . and, of course, she did.  On November 15th we learned that Taylor is dating HARRY STYLES, who is in the British boy band ONE DIRECTION. They were still together a couple of weeks later when photos surfaced of them holding hands and walking into a hotel at around 4:00 A.M.   (Daily Mail)
