Watch out Tom Hiddleston! We reveal Taylor Swift’s three-month itch

They may be Hollywood hottest new couple, but how long will it last?

Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston may be the hottest new couple in Hollywood right now, but how long will it last?

The pop star has dated some of the world's most attractive men over the last few years, including pop star Harry Styles and Hollywood actor Jake Gyllenhaal.

However, her romances seem to crumble as soon as they hit the three-month mark.

She appeared to be on the right track with DJ Calvin Harris, but they split not long after they celebrated their one-year anniversary in the spring.

The singer, 26, has even written a song about brief romances - her huge 2014 hit Blank Space.

The track details a relationship which starts well, but quickly descends into chaos and ends in a bitter split.

It includes the lyrics: "Got a long list of ex-lovers/They'll tell you I'm insane/But I got a blank space baby/And I'll write your name."

Now Taylor has moved on to hunky actor Tom, as seen in The Sun's exclusive pictures which showed the lovebirds kissing and cuddling on a beach outside her home in Rhode Island.

However, we can't help but wonder whether this new romance will go the distance or whether it will crumble at the dreaded 12-week mark.

We look back at Taylor's long list of ex-lovers and reveal just how many fell victim to her three-month itch.

Joe Jonas - July - October 2008

Taylor was just a rising country music star when she began dating pop singer Joe back in 2008.

She was on the verge of becoming a major force in Nashville, and was enjoying a romance with one of pop music's hottest hunks.

However, she was dealt a painful blow when her new boyfriend dumped her just weeks before she released her acclaimed second album Fearless.

They had been together for just three months when Joe ended the relationship in a devastating 27-second phone call.

But Taylor bounced back by scoring a huge hit with her record, and the break-up with Joe spurred her on to write new music, inspiring tracks including Last Kiss and Forever And Always.

Taylor Lautner - August - December 2009

The two Taylors became an item after they met on the set of rom-com movie Valentine’s Day.

They played high school sweethearts and the onscreen chemistry seemed to translate into real life.

However, there was no Hollywood ending for the pop star and they went their separate ways shortly after the dreaded three-month mark.

The split is believed to have inspired her track Back to December, in which Taylor admits neglecting a lover as her career took off.

John Mayer - November 2009 - February 2010

Fans were not happy when Taylor seemingly fell into the arms of Hollywood Lothario John back in 2009.

The pair met while recording a song together, but the romance crumbled just three months in.

Taylor, who was just 19 at the time of the relationship, appeared to slate the rocker over his treatment of her in a scathing song called Dear John.

In the track, she sang: "Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with?/The girl in the dress cried the whole way home."

Jake Gyllenhaal - October 2010 – January 2011

Taylor's romance with Jake became her most high-profile to date, and the couple caused a commotion wherever they went.

Reports suggested the actor was so smitten with Taylor that he even splashed out £110,000 for a private jet just so they could go on a date.

However, true to form, they hit problems after just 12 weeks and John is said to have dumped Taylor by text message.

The singer responded to the break-up by seemingly blasting Jake in her 2012 hit We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.

Conor Kennedy - July - October 2012

It looked as if Taylor had hit the jackpot when she hooked up with American political royalty in the form of Robert F. Kennedy’s schoolboy grandson Conor.

He was four years younger than the singer, aged just 18, but Taylor was believed to have seen him as 'The One'.

She was pictured spending time at the fabled Kennedy family compound Cape Cod in Massachusetts, and she went on to buy a house nearby.

However, three months later the romance ended and Taylor put the house on the market.

Harry Styles - December 2012 - January 2013

Taylor was first linked to Harry in April 2012 and their brief fling is said to have inspired her track I Knew You Were Trouble.

She then broke her "never getting back together" rule by reuniting with the One Direction hunk at the end of the year.

They looked blissfully happy together, and were pictured enjoying romantic walks around New York - but the relationship imploded as soon as they made it to the now infamous three months.
