Harry Styles‘ highly anticipated new album will arrive on Friday, December 13, the singer, 25, announced on both Instagram and Twitter. It was only a matter of time before fans noticed that the Fine Line will make its debut on his ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift‘s 30th birthday. And, the shocked reactions from “Haylor” fans are close to breaking the internet.
“On Taylor SWIFT’s birthday. How are you so Full of mind?”, one fan tweeted. “Taylor’s 30th birthday & Harry’s album. What a day for the harry & taylor stans,” another wrote on Twitter. In the mix of happy and surprised tweets, “Haylor” fans are even speculating that the two could have a secret collaboration on Fine Line.
“If we get a collab, I’m never going to shut up about it,” one eager fan tweeted, adding, “Imagine a continuation to ‘Style’ and ‘Two Ghosts’.” Either way, some fans believe Harry’s album release date was a deliberate move to get fans buzzing. One impressed fan tweeted this theory: “Even if there is no Haylor collab, Harry knew fans would make a connection with taylor,” adding, that the singer is “so f–king sick”

Taylor and Harry previously dated back in 2013. Fans of the ex-couple will remember the now famous photos of the two on a stroll together in Central Park. The two have since dated other people, but ‘Haylor’ fans are still holding out hope, despite Taylor’s current romance with boyfriend, Joe Alwyn.
Harry shared the news about his second solo studio album on November 4. His surprise announcement was the first time fans saw the official title of the singer’s forthcoming record, along with its cover art. The album cover shows Harry standing in a pastel blue and pink room, with his hand on his hip and his pelvis thrusted forward. The singer is dressed in a disco-style outfit — high-waisted white trousers and a half-buttoned magenta shirt.
Just this past August, Harry described Fine Line as an album “all about having sex and feeling sad,” in a cover interview with our sister site, Rolling Stone. So, fans are quite intrigued as to where Harry sought inspiration for the sultry album.
Fine Line is the followup album to the former One Direction member’s self-titled debut in May 2017. The new album will also follow Harry’s latest single, “Lights Up” which was released earlier this year. Harry is set to host and perform on Saturday Night Live on November 16.
