- Singer has met up with some of the families involved during London leg of her tour
- One mum has posted a viral TikTok video of her daughters meeting Swift
- Attack in Southport earlier this month at Swift-themed workshop shocked the singer
Pop superstar Taylor Swift has met up with some of the families of the girls who were involved in a stabbing attack in Southport.
Thank you
Swift, 34, met with Hope and Autumn, and their mother, Sami Foster, backstage at one of her sell-out shows at Wembley Stadium in London. Foster posted a TikTok video, which has now gone viral, which includes a carousel of photos of the visit.
In a caption for the video, Foster wrote: “The biggest thank you to @Taylor Swift and her mum for making the most magical night possible for us all. Thankyou for bringing Hope and Autumn pure happiness last night and always.”
The stabbing incident took place at a Swift-themed holiday dance club earlier in August. Three children – Bebe King, Alice Dasilva Aguiar and Elsie Dot Stancombe – died in the attack. A man remains in custody charged with a range of offences, including murder and attempted murder.
Shock
In the wake of the attack, Swift put out a statement on her Instagram page. ‘The horror of yesterday’s attack in Southport is washing over me continuously and I’m just completely in shock… The loss of life and innocence, and the horrendous trauma inflicted on everyone who was there, the families, and first responders.
‘These were just little kids at a dance class. I am at a complete loss for how to ever convey my sympathies to these families.’
It is not known how many of the families Swift has met up with during her time in London, as she has not publicised the meetings.
