In an emotional interview with Variety, the popstar revealed that while her mother was undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer, doctors made another heartbreaking diagnosis.
โWhile she was going through treatment, they found a brain tumour,โ Taylor told the outlet.
โAnd the symptoms of what a person goes through when they have a brain tumour is nothing like what weโve ever been through with her cancer before. So itโs just been a really hard time for us as a family.โ
Swift has always been quite open and honest with her fans about her mumโs health โ the star citing her illness as a key factor in the decision to limit her upcoming Lover tour to just four stops in the U.S. before participating in Europeโs festival circuit.
โI mean, we donโt know what is going to happen,โ the Grammy winner explained.
โWe donโt know what treatment weโre going to choose. It just was the decision to make at the time, for right now, for whatโs going on.โ
Andrea has become a recognizable figure amongst die-hard โSwiftiesโ, with some of them even posting about her online. Swift has regularly spoken about her mum being her โbest friendโ, and Andrea has often seen smiling by her daughterโs side at award shows and in public.
โEveryone loves their mom, everyoneโs got an important mom,โ Taylor told Variety.
โBut for me, sheโs really the guiding force. Almost every decision I make, I talk to her about it first. So obviously it was a really big deal to every speak about her illness.โ
