"It’s nice to have a mutual friend in Taylor"

The outing marks a notable public reunion between Kloss and a member of Swift's core group. Este Haim, one third of the band HAIM, has been a fixture in Swift's life for years. The Cut described the event as suggesting Kloss is "back in the Squad," a term that once defined Swift's high-profile group of celebrity friends.

The sighting carries weight because of Kloss and Swift's complicated history. The pair were once extremely close, but their friendship publicly cooled after Kloss married into the Kushner family, which has ties to political circles that clashed with Swift's public persona. TheCut noted that the sighting "fueling speculation about a return to Taylor Swift's inner circle" and contextualized it within the broader public fascination with Swift's social dynamics.

This is not the first hint of a thaw. Over the past year, fans have pointed to subtle signals like Kloss attending Swift's Eras Tour stop or liking Swift's social media posts. Now a joint appearance with a trusted Swift friend like Haim offers stronger evidence of reconciliation. TheCut's report explored Kloss's gradual distancing from the group and the ongoing public curiosity about where the two stand.

Whether this means a full-fledged squad reunion is in the works remains unclear. But for now, the fashion and music worlds are watching closely as one of pop culture's most talked-about friendships seemingly moves toward a new chapter.
