On Feb. 23, the 29-year-old travelled to Los Angeles to pay a surprise visit to one of her biggest fans at his own secret engagement party. Swift performed an intimate acoustic performance of her 2017 ballad, King of My Heart.

The rendezvous was organized by Alex Goldschmidt — one of the future grooms — for his fiancée, Ross Girard.

During his toast, Goldschmidt revealed “there was a person who sort of played a part” in the entire party. He then invited Swift to the room, which was full of cheering friends and family.

“So Alex e-mailed me,” said Swift to the small crowd. “He was gonna do this and [told me] there was a song that’s really special to you called King of My Heart.”

“I’ve been off tour for a while, but hopefully it’s still alright,” she joked.

Goldschmidt popped the question to Girard only earlier that day. “I’ll never be over this,” he wrote on Instagram. “Nothing in life feels real and probably never will again.”

“I still can’t believe this happened,” wrote Girard in a post. “What a crazy day! Thank you Taylor Swift, for surprising me and all of our guests. Thank you to family, friends, and strangers all over the world for your love and support.”

“Most of all thank you to Alex Goldschmidt for loving me and for planning an awesome day,” Girard concluded.

“I’ll never be over this,” wrote Goldschmidt in a further post. “Nothing in life feels real and probably never will again.”
