First, while talking to Entertainment Weekly through a legal rep, he stated that their son, Ever, is the top priority amid the ongoing case.The statement further read, “He knew there was a possibility it could come out, but he was not going to be the one to proactively do that because he has always wanted a decent relationship with Taylor.

While talking to the above portal, she revealed that the two have no contact as of right now.
