She added: “I’ll find out that a group of my friends went out to dinner, but they wanted it to be a low-key night and not worry about people coming up to the table every other second and asking for autographs, so they didn’t invite me. I can understand that.”
While it can seem almost ‘rude’ for her friends not to invite her, Taylor understood their intention and took it as a protective measure to actually help her.
