A preggo Swiftie is feeling “So High School” after her sister-in-law pulled a Taylor and shook her off for selling her Era Tour tickets. Sounds like a story worthy of one of the billionaire pop queen’s tunes…

A 31-year-old mom-to-be in San Diego recently decided to consult the wise sages of Reddit’s infamous “Am I the A–hole” forum to find out if she was in the wrong for selling her hot-ticket gems instead of handing them over to her 29-year-old relative.
In late 2023, the woman snagged tickets the moment Swift dropped extra North American tour dates. She even convinced her sister-in-law—who she noted isn’t exactly a Swiftie– to tag along.
However, she picked up the hot tickets before she realized she’d soon be burdened with a child.
“Fast forward a couple of months and I am now expecting a baby,” she wrote, noting she’s due December 7th (the day before the Eras Tour wraps… Squeeeeeee!). Sadly, the tickets were for the Dec. 6 show in Vancouver, Canada.
“At first I was adamant I was still going to try and make it to the concert but I soon came to the realization it just wasn’t in the cards for me,” the expecting Swiftie detailed.
However, the selfless Swift lover was more than willing to gift her sister-in-law the tickets.
“I offered to let her have the tickets if she wanted to take her daughter who is a big [Taylor fan] and she said she didn’t want to go if I wasn’t going.”
The Expecting Mommy Planned to Sell Her Swift Tickets… But Her In-Law Had Other Ideas…
Meanwhile, several weeks passed. The mother to be let it drop that she planned to sell the Swift tickets.
“She tells me she’s still going with or without me and that her nail tech wants to go with her, which kind of put me off a little because they’re my tickets and not hers to be deciding who is using them (she never even offered to pay me face value for them),” she recalled.
With bad blood brewing, she went ahead and sold the tickets. She reasoned the cash was for her upcoming bundle of joy.
“Long story short I end up selling the tickets for $4,000 in total, which will be a perfect little nest egg for me while I am on maternity leave,” she explained.
However, now her sister-in-law is making her feel like they’re never, ever getting back together.
The pregnant woman detailed that her sister-in-law has been unresponsive to her messages, including ultrasound images, and has stopped sharing her location on Find My Friends. The final insult? She also will not attend the baby shower.
“She has since completely stopped communicating with me. We were pretty much best friends before this,” she claimed.
Of course, Reddit users by and large sided with the pregnant Swifte.
“First she won’t go without you then she invites her nail tech?? That’s massively presumptuous, especially since she didn’t contribute to the cost of the tickets, lol. Wow,” one user wrote.
Other folks speculated that the sister-in-law simply wanted a cash grab alongside a free show.
“I’m thinking she found out she could sell them and then didn’t tell you she changed her mind about not wanting the tickets,” a second user added. “You can almost guarantee the “nail tech” was going to pay her for the other ticket,” another user agreed.
In fact, denizens of Reddit all but convicted the scorned sister-in-law.
One user declared: “that is so scummy. taking [her] tickets and selling it off.”
