In just one day after Taylor Swift broke up with boyfriend Tom Hiddleston, another ex-boy friend Calvin Harris talks about his past relationship with her. Harris speaks about the end of their love story and the excessive aftermath.

In an exclusive interview, Harris opens up about how the aftermath of their relationshoip receive more attention than the relationship itself. Recently he was chosen as the magazine's Patrón Tequila Solo Artist of the Year, and the interview is part of the article about his profile.

"The aftermath of the relationship was way more heavily publicized than the relationship itself," he said in the interview with GQ United Kingdom. "When we were together, we were very careful for it not to be a media circus. She respected my feelings in that sense. I'm not good at being a celebrity."

He also admitted about one thing he regret the most with the relationship is the "Twitter thing" in a month after they broke up. The "Twitter thing" he talks about is feud between him and Swift about Rihanna's song "This Is What You Came For" in July this year.

At first, Swift wanted to keep her role in writing lyric for the song as secret. But later her reps told People that she wrote the lyric under a pseudonym, and that made Harris appeared to be a liar. So, he took the matter to Twitter in order to defend himself.

Harris dated Swift for a year before he ended their relationship in June 2016. After they broke up, she dated Hiddleston. Recently, Swift and Hiddleston just ended their relationship after a trouble.

Lately, the 32-year old DJ and songwriter realized that nothing of the feud matters, because as a renowned DJ and songwriter, he has collaborated with many recording artists and scored many big hits.

His collaboration with Rihanna in 2011 in "We Found Love" has brought him an international success. The song became his first number one single on the Billboard Hot 100.
