Taylor Swift's life is full of celebrations lately. Fresh off her private 35th birthday celebration with boyfriend and NFL star Travis Kelce, the music icon now has another reason to smile.
According to sources close to the family, Taylor's brother, Austin Swift, and his girlfriend, Sydney Ness, are reportedly expecting their first child.
This exciting development means Taylor will soon take on a new role - that of an aunt. While there has been no official confirmation from Austin or Sydney, reports from Heat World suggest that the couple is keeping things under wraps for now.

Austin Swift, Taylor's younger brother, has been dating model and actress Sydney Ness since 2022. Their relationship has remained relatively private, with few public appearances or social media posts highlighting their romance. But now, according to reports, the couple may be preparing to welcome their first child.
If confirmed, this would be the first child for Austin and Sydney, but not Taylor's first time stepping into a nurturing role for children.
The 14-time Grammy Award-winning singer is already a godmother to several of her close friends' children, including Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds' daughters, Inez and Betty, as well as Jaime King's son, Leo.
Taylor has spoken before about how deeply she values her role as a godmother and has even dedicated songs to her godchildren.
A devoted godmother
Taylor Swift has demonstrated her love for children on several occasions. Her role as godmother to Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds' children is well-documented, with fans often spotting playful shoutouts to the couple's kids in her lyrics.
She also serves as a godmother to her friend Jaime King's son, Leo, showing up to support and spend time with him regularly.
During a concert in 2015, Taylor emotionally reflected on her role as a godmother. Before performing her song "Never Grow Up", she spoke about how holding a baby had shifted her perspective on life.
"I was holding this little baby the other night, and I was just thinking differently," Taylor said to a crowd of fans.
"When you're holding onto something that's so innocent and so perfect and has no idea what's coming for it with the world. The world is going to throw so many things at you as you grow up. It made me think of this song I wrote a long time ago called 'Never Grow Up.'"
