Taylor Swift fans are only just realising song on Speak Now album is about Succession star

TAYLOR Swift fans are only just realising a track on her Speak Now album is about one of the stars of Succession.

The 33-year-old released Speak Now way back in 2010 but it's only now that fans have made the connection.

Swifties have taken to social media to insist that Taylor wrote When Emma Falls in Love about her pal Emma Stone and Kieran Culkin.

Actress Emma, 34, dated Macaulay Culkin's younger brother in 2010 after they met on set of the film Paper Man.

Kieran - who starred as Roman Roy in Succession - and Emma broke up in 2011.

One fan tweeted: "Taylor Swift wrote a song about Emma Stone being in love with Kieran Culkin I love that."

And someone else said: "Emma & Andrew met in December 2010, at the time the songs would’ve been written she was dating Kieran Culkin."

They've even pointed out an apparent reference to Emma in the track's opening lines.

Taylor sings: "When Emma falls in love, she calls up her mom, jokes about the ways that this one could go wrong.

"She waits and takes her time, cause little miss sunshine always thinks it's gonna rain."

Fans are speculating that "little miss sunshine" is a reference to Emma's 2010 movie Easy A, as one of the most iconic scenes involves her character singing Natasha Bedingfield's Pocketful of Sunshine in the shower.

The two ladies have been close friends since 2008 and Emma previously said of Taylor: "She's so great! We're very different, but she has such a sick sense of humor."
