The timing carries extra attention. The outing comes just days before the 2026 American Music Awards, which are set for Monday (May 25) in Las Vegas. Swift is reportedly expected to skip the ceremony despite leading this year’s nominations.

She’s gonna skip the AMAs… right? Like why even go if she’s leading nominations lol
I swear they’re always “date night” and “wedding soon.” Next thing you know it’ll be another rumor. July 3rd tho?? That’s so specific
Wait so did they already get married? Or is July 3rd like the engagement date? I saw something about save the dates but then it’s not confirmed so I’m confused. Also AMAs are in Vegas right? How would that even work if she’s skipping
The only thing I care about is the outfit details, like the red lipstick and the floral shirt. Media acts like it’s breaking news that two people walked out of a restaurant together. If she’s got eight nominations, she better show up… unless the whole skipping thing is just a tactic to get more attention.
