Remembering their split at a young age, Lautner highlighted the foundation of their friendship that endured despite the breakup. "I think when you respect somebody for who they are in their soul, it allows you to move on, forgive, and continue that love in a different way. And thankfully we had that. So after things ended between us—we were so young, I was 18 she was 20, 21—we stayed friendly, we would see each other now and then." As per E! News, this friendship made their recent collaboration on Swift’s I Can See You music video a natural and comfortable experience. When he was asked about the details of their breakup, especially Swift’s song Back to December, rumored to be about him, Lautner remained in a good vibe. He praised the track and humorously added, "You don't wanna know,"

Despite the humor, Lautner clarified that Swift was the one who broke up with him. "I'm thinking back on exactly what happened, but no, yeah, she did," he confirmed with a laugh. "I have always had the deepest respect for who she is as a person, before anything else," As per HuffPost, he explained. "I would say one of the greater things to happen in my life over the last year is the rekindling of our friendship because she just is a wonderful human. She's pretty great to have in your life." Lautner said about Swift. Lautner’s wife Taylor Dome praised Swift saying, "Before we'd even gone to film the music video, the first text she sent him when she was pitching the idea, she included me in it. And she is so inclusive of me in everything, which is so kind of her. But she's just kind, and she's very thoughtful. She makes it very easy."
