It is not only shocking for Taylor, but everyone has become quite startled after getting to know this.
In addition to that, Taylor has also added by saying ‘I want to say now I feel this loss deeply and my broken heart goes out to her family and friends. This is the last thing I ever thought would happen when we decided to bring this tour to Brazil’.
