TOM Hiddleston was left feeling flustered during a recent live interview by Heart radio after the host began asking questions about his former flame, Taylor Swift.
The British actor, 44, and the global music sensation, 35, had a brief relationship back in 2016.

The duo called it quits after only around three months, with the split rumoured to come down to the public nature of their romance.
Tom, who was on the radio programme with actress Karen Gillian, 37, was expecting to discuss his upcoming film, “The Life of Chuck”.
So when the radio host name-dropped his famous ex, he was more than taken aback.
Taylor entered the conversation after the host of the show asked Tom how he liked to spend his nights, and he remarked on how he enjoys watching sports highlights.
“I find myself on the sports highlights. It’s football, or if there’s been a tennis championship that I’ve missed,” Tom said.
“I’ll go on to read what all these sports journalists have said about sport who write really beautifully about it. I love reading what they’ve written. It’s kind of nerdy.”
The Heart host then threw in a complete curveball of a question, relating to how Taylor recently discussed both sports and her love of baking sourdough on her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s podcast, New Heights.
“We did just find out Taylor Swift is a big fan of a sourdough recipe blog. Very, very specific, but I could see how you could get into that,” remarked the host.
Tom was left noticeably taken off guard, holding a blank expression as the host discussed his exes’ hobby.
He merely muttered a “Hmm” and simultaneously nodded in response.
Tom’s co-star Karen swooped in to save him from the firing line though, lightheartedly adding, “I feel like that could be some kind of Easter egg though. Like something to do with the Super Bowl.”
Taylor is notoriously known for dropping “Easter eggs”: indications big and small that could reveal something about her upcoming projects.
Her fans, known as “Swifties”, get super excited about these clues, with some going to complex measures in an attempt to decode what they could mean.
All Tom replied to Karen, who continued to speak on the topic was: “You have a deep knowledge of the NFL,” bringing the conversation back onto sports.
Tom Hiddleston is engaged to to British actress and playwright Zawe Ashton, 41, with many fans believing they’ve already gotten married in a secret wedding.
It’s undetermined whether this wedding took place as the pair say they like to refer to each other as “husband” and “wife” despite their official status, but the couple have been engaged since 2022 and prefer to keep their relationship private.
Meanwhile Taylor and her beau, American football tight end Travis, 35, have been public with their undeniable love for each other since the end of 2023.
Travis tried to win Taylor over by giving her a friendship bracelet during one of her Era’s Tour shows, with each bead being a different digit of his phone number.
He didn’t succeed in giving this gift to Taylor initially, but she got in touch with him shortly after hearing about the planned gesture.

On the 12th of August, Swift featured on Travis’ podcast to announce her 12th studio album, ‘The Life of a Showgirl.’ It was here where she gushed about her love of baking[/caption]
