“Her name was Rebecca Harkness. And she lived in a house I ended up buying in Rhode Island. That's how I found out about her,” she explained. “She was a woman who was very, very talked about, and everything she did was scandalous. I found a connection in that.”

In addition to its historical ties, the waterfront property, located near the upscale Ocean House resort, has also served as the venue for a number of Swift's high-profile meetings.

In August, her boyfriend, NFL star Travis Kelce, and his Kansas City Chiefs teammate Patrick Mahomes were spotted enjoying one of Swift's exclusive parties at the property.

With Swift's record-breaking Eras Tour behind her, the megastar has largely retreated from the public eye, making occasional appearances, most notably date nights with boyfriend Kelce and Kansas City Chiefs games.

Kelce even poked fun at Swift's hit song “22” while discussing her mindset for the upcoming game, saying, “I'm excited. I feel 22 again. Baby, let's go.”

During the chat, host McAfee speculated about Swift's highly-anticipated twelfth album, suggesting that it could feature more Kelce-inspired songs similar to fan favorites like “So High School” and “The Alchemy.”

McAfee joked, “I've listened to all the albums, I've heard about all of them… I appreciate you, man. I also think there's one coming up where it's gonna be great, like the guy is good. It's gonna be great in my house.”

In response, Kelce playfully hinted that “there might be a few” new songs, but remained tight-lipped when asked if he had heard any of the upcoming songs.

“You know I can't say, you know I can't say… none of that,” the footballer replied coyly. “I hear music everywhere.”

However, Kelce made it clear that she fully supports Swift's creative process.

“Oh yes, now you know,” he said. “I'll never speak up, but you already know I'm here to support it. I'm here to see where it can go, you know what I mean.”
