So Tom Hiddleston Was Noticeably Missing From Taylor Swift’s Fabulous 4th Of July Instagram Picture

And fans now have a theory about their relationship.

Madly in love or one massive publicity stunt?

We can’t quite figure out what’s really going on with Taylor and Tom, but many of Tay’s fans reckon they’ve sussed it.

Yesterday Tay was having a beach day with her squad to celebrate the 4th Of July, and Tom was in tow, of course, sporting a ‘I <3 TS’ vest.

But it was Tay’s Instagram post from the day that has fans saying their relationship must be a dud. The shot, which she posted later in the evening, featured Tay with all of her gal pals, but Tom is noticeably missing from the pic.

Happy 4th from us ❤️

Sure it’s early days, and one theory is that maybe Tay wants to wait a while before she shouts her relationship on social media, but a look back on her Instagram reveals that when she first started dating Calvin she had no problem posting picture perfect PDAs with her new beau.

Fans reckon that this supports the recent rumour that Tom isn’t her boyfriend at all, but an actor for her new music video. Hmm.

Of course, it could just mean that Tom was behind the camera, but whatever is going on, something tells us, the Hiddleswift mystery is far from over.
