Everything you need to know about Celebrity Cruises cabins and suites

In keeping with the ambiance on Celebrity Cruises ' vessels, the brand's accommodations offer an elevated experience without going full-on luxury. That means Celebrity's passengers can expect more sophisticated surroundings and an upscale vibe at relatively affordable prices.

Like the vessels themselves, the line's cabins are well-appointed and elegant, with modern touches that appeal to a slightly younger-than-average cruise demographic.

Learn what to expect from each room type before you book with our primer for those who are new to Celebrity.

Celebrity Cruises cabin primer

Celebrity Cruises' fleet of ships includes more than a dozen vessels that fall into four main categories : Millennium Class, Solstice Class, Edge Class and Galapagos Class. Ships in the first three classes share similarities in terms of their cabin offerings. The Galapagos-class vessels are much smaller and include a narrower selection of cabin types and amenities. Because of this, the Galapagos Class will have its own section below; the other sections of this article do not apply to the Galapagos Class.

Although all of the ships' staterooms fall into the same general categories – insides, oceanviews, balconies and suites – the specific types of each vary across classes, particularly with regard to the most expensive options.

Even at the most basic level, nearly all accommodations include two twin beds that can be connected to form a king (most rooms) or queen; a desk and vanity area with a chair, drawers and a phone; nightstands with drawer space and reading lights; a sofa or plush chair; a coffee table; an in-cabin bathroom with shampoo, conditioner, body wash and towels; a closet with shelves, hanging space and bathrobes; a safe; a hair dryer; a television with a selection of movies and live TV, as well as shipboard channels and the ability to check the daily schedule and your onboard bill; a mini-fridge; a selection of outlets, including USB ports; and individual lighting and climate controls.

All cabins also come with the services of a room attendant, who will tidy your digs up to two times daily. All passengers also have access to 24-hour room service, which carries a fee of $9.95 per order, plus an 18% auto-gratuity.

Across the fleet, all ships offer connecting rooms, with some of the largest suites joining to sleep up to 10 people. The line also features special accommodations for solo cruisers on a small number of its vessels (specifics are noted below under applicable cabin categories).

Further, all ships offer several accessible accommodations across all main stateroom categories (except Celebrity Solstice and Celebrity Reflection, which do not offer accessible standard balcony cabins) for passengers needing extra space for wheelchairs, walkers and scooters. Those cabins feature wider (32-inch) doorways, a 5-foot turning radius, ramped bathroom thresholds, bathroom grab bars, lowered sinks and vanities, higher toilets, roll-in showers with fold-down benches, hand-held showerheads, lowered closet bars and accessible balconies (in select staterooms).

Unless otherwise noted, all cabins are designed for double occupancy. In most cases, solo travelers staying in accommodations meant for two people will be charged an additional cruise fare, known as a single supplement. Further, some staterooms are outfitted with trundle beds, pull-down bunks or sofa beds that can accommodate up to four people per room.

Inside cabins on Celebrity ships

Inside cabins on Celebrity ships run anywhere from 170 to 202 square feet, and they offer everything mentioned above. The one thing they don't have is a view.

As is implied by their name, they have no windows and no balconies for natural light or fresh air. These are stellar options for anyone on a budget or travelers who have trouble sleeping with any sort of light.

Celebrity Silhouette has four inside cabins available for solo travelers.

Oceanview cabins on Celebrity ships

Oceanview cabins on Celebrity ships come in at between 170 and 242 square feet, depending on the ship and type.

True to their name, these rooms offer views of the ocean from windows that don't open, so although there are no in-cabin ocean breezes, there is natural light.

They include all of the basic amenities listed above.

Balcony cabins on Celebrity ships

There are several veranda categories available throughout the Celebrity fleet, all of which offer traditional balcony setups. Types include basic balcony cabins (170 to 202 square feet, 38- to 53-square-foot balcony), Family Verandas (270 to 575 square feet, 106- to 242-square-foot balcony) that sleep a larger number of people and Sunset Verandas (194 to 228 square feet, 53- to 89-square-foot balcony) that offer aft views of the ship's wake.

The vessels also offer AquaClass and Concierge Class digs, which are essentially basic balcony accommodations with some extras. The former focuses on wellness and comes with free fitness classes, unlimited access to the onboard spa's thermal suite, dining at exclusive health-focused restaurant Blu, a healthier room service menu, daily bottled water, upgraded toiletries, discounts on spa packages and yoga mats for in-cabin use. The latter entitles cruisers to amenities like dedicated concierge services, as well as an exclusive luncheon, daily in-room canapes and sparkling wine on request.

Basic amenities are included, but what really sets these accommodations apart is that they provide cruisers with private access to ocean air – no need to venture to a public deck.

Infinite Veranda

As with standard balcony cabins, Infinite Verandas – which are only found on ships in the line's Edge Class – come with the basic amenities listed above, but they also grant a bit more interior space (202 square feet) in lieu of the usual walk-out terrace.

They earn their own category here because, as those who book the accommodations will find, instead of a traditional balcony, they have a window that can be raised and lowered with the push of a button. A set of see-through folding doors allows the area near the window to be cordoned off in order to make it feel like a more traditional balcony.

RELATED: 6 reasons to stay in a balcony cabin

Celebrity's three newest vessels each have several Infinite Veranda solo cabins for cruisers traveling by themselves. Celebrity Edge has 16, and Celebrity Apex offers 24, while Celebrity Beyond boasts 32. They offer 131 to 184 square feet of space with 42- to 45-square-foot interior balcony areas.

Suites on Celebrity ships

There are 10 types of suites on Celebrity's ships, four of which – Sky Suites, Celebrity Suites, Royal Suites and Penthouse Suites – appear on every single ship in the fleet. Two more – Edge Villas and Iconic Suites – are found only on Edge-class vessels. Another two, Signature Suites and Reflection Suites, are exclusive to Celebrity Reflection, and the remaining Sunset Suites and AquaClass Suites are new to the fleet with the debut of Celebrity Beyond.

Passengers booked in any of the suites in this category have access to the exclusive suites-only lounge and pool deck, known as The Retreat, as well as dining in suite-access-only restaurant Luminae.

Cruisers in these accommodations also receive a slew of perks, including higher-level Wi-Fi and drink packages (upgraded from the free ones that come with all fares); onboard credit; prepaid gratuities; free in-room bottles of alcohol; complimentary laundry, shoeshine, butler and concierge services; and priority embarkation and tendering, among other draws.

An explanation of each type of suite can be found below.

These are the smallest suites in the fleet, ranging from 251 to 362 square feet with balconies that range from 57 to 163 square feet. They're arranged in a studio configuration, similar to what you'd find in non-suite cruise-ship accommodations. They're the least expensive option for those who crave access to suite-level amenities.

Celebrity Suites

For cruisers wanting the step up their square footage or storage space, a Celebrity Suite will do the trick. Expect 394 to 498 square feet, plus a balcony between 51 and 105 square feet, complete with separate living and bedroom spaces, a sizeable bathroom (with a bathtub/shower combo) and tons of drawers and cabinets to help chronic overpackers stow their belongings.

Royal Suites

For an even bigger upgrade, Royal Suites come in at between 538 and 687 square feet with verandas measuring 72 to 195 square feet. Each has ample storage, separate lounging and sleeping quarters, and a generously sized bathroom with a shower and separate soaking tub that's perfect for relaxing after a day in port.

Penthouse Suites

Penthouse suites are the largest accommodations found fleetwide, ranging from 1,291 to 1,432 square feet with 197- to 1,098-square-foot verandas that are large enough for their own private hot tubs. The two-bed, two-bath setup with a separate sitting area and dining table that seats eight, makes these cabins great for entertaining or sharing with travel companions.

Edge Villas

These two-deck suites offer an upstairs-and-downstairs setup with one bedroom, two bathrooms, and a living room in 739 square feet of space. There's also a 211-square-foot balcony. These rooms are exclusive to the line's Edge Class of ships, and they boast access to a private plunge pool.

Iconic Suites

Iconic Suites -- which are in high demand, due to their limited numbers and plethora of extras -- are the largest on Edge-class vessels, offering 1,892 square feet, a nearly 689-square-foot balcony (larger than most staterooms onboard, complete with a private hot tub and daybed), a bathroom with dual sinks and a whirlpool tub, and an unparalleled forward-facing view from directly above the bridge.

Signature Suites

While Signature Suite accommodations are on the smaller side, at 441 square feet, the 118-square-foot balcony still manages to include an outdoor tub with a rain shower so you can soak while taking in the views as you sail. They also include high ceilings, a shower/tub combo, and separate living and sleeping areas.

Reflection Suites

At nearly four times the size of Signature Suites, Reflection Suites come equipped with two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a cantilevered glass shower that hangs out over the ocean for simply amazing views. All of this fits neatly into 1,636 square feet of space, plus a 194-square-foot balcony. Dual sinks, a separate soaking tub with a rain shower, high ceilings, a walk-in closet, and a prime corner location round out the opulent offerings. These suites are only slightly smaller than Iconic Suites, but their verandas are far tinier.

Sunset Suites

Similar to the wake-view concept behind the line's Sunset Veranda staterooms, Sunset Suites provide an elevated experience with the same stunning vistas at each ship's aft. Some of these suites are on the smaller side, comprising 296 to 575 square feet, plus a 53- to 242-square-foot balcony, but they do incorporate separate living and sleeping areas, making them feel more like true suites.

AquaClass Sky Suites

These rooms combine the space and enhanced extras of a Sky Suite (including access to The Retreat and Luminae) with the perks of an AquaClass cabin – fitness classes, thermal suite access, dining at Blu, daily bottled water, discounts on spa packages and yoga mats for in-cabin use – to bring passengers a more health-centric suite experience in 319 square feet with a 79-square-foot veranda.

Cabins on Celebrity's Galapagos-class ships

Because Celebrity's expedition vessels are much smaller, they warrant their own section. What follows is a breakdown of the cabin types – most of which are suites – offered on each ship.

Note that Celebrity Flora, Celebrity Xpedition and Celebrity Xploration have neither The Retreat nor Luminae, so suite passengers do not have access to those venues. Amenities also may vary from those offered on the fleet's non-expedition ships.

Celebrity Flora

The largest of Celebrity's expedition vessels, Celebrity Flora houses 50 cabins with a double-occupancy capacity for 100 passengers. All staterooms are classified as suites, with a mix of several types of Sky Suites, including some with Infinite Verandas (330 to 365 square feet, 65- to 86-square-foot balcony); Royal Suites (559 square feet, 129-square-foot balcony); and Penthouse Suites (1,288 square feet, 321-square-foot balcony).

Celebrity Xpedition

Significantly smaller is Celebrity Xpedition, which can carry 48 passengers across 24 cabins at capacity. Availability includes 160-square-foot oceanview accommodations; 175-square-foot Junior Suites with 45-square-foot verandas; and a combination of suites – Xpedition Suites, Royal Suites and Penthouse Suites – that run the gamut from 205 to 460 square feet with balconies ranging from 50 to 235 square feet. Given that Penthouse Suites on the line's other ships span 1,291 to 1,432 square feet with 197- to 1,098-square-foot verandas, it's easy to see that suite sizes decrease as ship sizes decrease.

Celebrity Xploration

The tiniest and most no-frills option on Celebrity's roster is Celebrity Xploration, which carries just 16 people in eight cabins at its maximum. Oddly, all staterooms are labeled as Junior Suites, but while half of them have balconies (180 square feet with 245-square-foot verandas), the other half (190 square feet) don't. It's also interesting to note that, in the ones that do have them, the balconies boast significantly more space than the interior living area does.

Bottom line

Celebrity's selection of basic cabins is fairly standard. However, when it comes to suites, passengers have a decent number of choices, and even the smallest and least expensive options offer coveted amenities and access to dedicated spaces.

Although there are suite types that span the entire fleet, the line likes to create experiences that are exclusive to some of its newest classes and ships.

Celebrity is one of the best big-ship cruise brands when it comes to everything from service and extras to in-cabin storage space, decor and even furniture layout. Overall, the line offers an upscale ambiance with a lot of value for your money, starting with inside cabins and running right up through accommodations at the suite level.

Inside Ascent: 3 takeaways from Celebrity Cruises' new ship

As I walked to dinner on Celebrity Cruises’ new ship, Ascent, I found myself at what I thought was a dead-end. The vessel’s expansive fifth deck shrunk to a narrow hallway with infinity mirrors and polished steel sculptures that seemed to indicate I’d taken a wrong turn.

But I soon realized the installation from art and design studio Fredrikson Stallard, named Aurora, also served a practical function. I walked through the mesmerizing space, which features 1,600 lights in a “digital interpretation” of the aurora borealis according to a placard at the entrance and exited closer to the restaurant.

The way Ascent immerses guests in its artwork was among several features that stood out during a two-night sailing earlier this month. And while the ship has a lot in common with previous Edge Series vessels, there are some new twists. Here are three takeaways.

1. The ship is artfully designed

Many other spaces on Ascent incorporate sculptures and paintings, and often feel like works of art themselves thanks to striking design features.

On Deck 14, for example, tall narrow archways lead guests to the ship’s Magic Carpet, a cantilevered platform on the side of Celebrity’s Edge Series ships that offers sweeping views (the platform can also move up and down the vessel).

Around the corner,  a giant metallic octopus (given the pet name Ocho by the crew) stands watch over the pool. And a tiered LED chandelier hanging above the Martini Bar is the star of the ship’s three-deck Grand Plaza.

The attention to detail extends to the accommodations, perhaps no more evident than in the two-bedroom, two-bathroom Iconic Suite, which has floor-to-ceiling windows, a nearly 700-square-foot terrace with a hot tub and a butler’s pantry. The room is in The Retreat, Celebrity’s all-suite category that gives guests access to a private restaurant, lounge and sun deck, among other perks.

Prices for the suite vary by itinerary, travel dates, and other factors, but the suite currently starts at an average of $21,425 per person for a seven-night cruise to the Bahamas, Mexico, and Grand Cayman, departing in March 2024 from Fort Lauderdale.

But no matter where you are on the ship, Ascent puts a premium on relaxation: There is ample seating all over the vessel, from poolside loungers to plush chairs by the window at Café al Bacio.

2. The food is elevated

Ascent’s 32 restaurants, bars and lounges showcase Celebrity’s focus on its culinary program, both at included venues like Oceanview Café – which feels like part buffet, part food hall, with soaring ceilings and a variety of international cuisine – and its specialty restaurants.

Eden Restaurant, located in a three-level space that also hosts shows, offers a mix of dishes like Aegean Sea ceviche; Nova Scotia lobster casserole; and oven-roasted chicken (I ordered the chicken at dinner, which came with duck fat potatoes, mushrooms, daikon leaves, fennel salad, pickled mustard and chicken apricot roasting jus).

The line’s more intimate Le Voyage restaurant from chef and Celebrity’s Global Culinary Ambassador Daniel Boulud was redesigned for the ship with a cream and gold color scheme, hand-embroidered leather wall art and a marble entrance. The venue can accommodate around 60 people – including its six-guest private room – and features dishes inspired by travel like tamarind and peanut-crusted prawns and Brazilian moqueca.

Both restaurants also feature tasting menus, including a plant-based menu at Eden.

3. There is a private game room

Ascent features The Annex, a new space where guests can play sports like golf on a virtual simulator, watch movies and sing karaoke (there were even earplugs on the tables when I went, just in case).

Guests can choose from various packages ranging from $150 to $375 for up to 10 people, depending on their selection and when they use the space. They can also add up to five additional guests for $35 each.

On the nearly 3,300-passenger ship, The Annex serves as a private playroom.

'Come and go as you please': Here's how overnight cruise stops work

Every package includes soda, water and food from the onboard pub Craft Social, and some include alcohol (guests’ beverage packages also apply).

Overall, Ascent provides passengers a modern, elegant home base for their travels. And don’t be afraid to get lost onboard – you might just stumble upon something beautiful.

Inside Stateroom vs. Prime Inside Stateroom

By horseymike , December 8, 2022 in Celebrity Cruises

Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

Does anyone know what the difference is between an inside stateroom and a prime inside stateroom 

on Celebrity ?

Location on the ship mainly. 

Also slightly larger, 181 sq. ft. vs 202 sq. ft. on Edge class for instance

Thanks Dreamer 

Prime indicates a better location--for M and S class it usually means a higher deck.  I do not believe there are Prime Inside cabin categories on E class.

I don't believe so either. I booked an inside deluxe stateroom on the Apex TA for April 2023 and all categories the same price regardless of which deck you are on.

I just booked prime inside on Celebrity Silhouette Deck 10. I really hope it is not only the location but also expect it to be slightly bigger. But anyway Celebrity's inside cabin are really spacious I think. Really looking forward to the cruise. As per the cabin review videos the bathrooms looks nice size as well.

Would be good to hear some recent experience though. 🙂

I don't think Prime is going to be bigger although I agree that it should be spacious in its own right. Celebrity's own explanation of that category doesn't say that (although it does for Edge class Deluxe Inside cabins). Did you see something that leads you to believe otherwise?

Deluxe Interior on Apex was a fair bit larger than other interior and a lovely room.

I've booked a deluxe inside on Apex next month. What colour is the decor as I understand it changes with the ships.

Apex was shade of grey and cream with touches of deep purple - nice room and great bathroom.

Maybe it is just the layout, as the bed being set perpendicular and there is still space to walk past to it. On Summit the inside cabin had a different layout, it was more narrow I think, but that is a different class I know.. we will see.

It seemed bigger as the area past the bed was nice as was the small chaise/sofa on that side of the cabin.  There was a desk area as well as bureau with drawers there.  It is a narrow walk past the end of the bed but was not an issue for us.  We are so looking forward to our first trip to Budapest in May this year.

The obvious question is discussing a cabin and looking forward to Budapest.  While Pest is an absolutely wonderful city, what is the connection to Celebrity?

Sorry to be off topic - I noted the home city of the person I was answering, that was all.  

Just now, SbbquilterUT said: Sorry to be off topic - I noted the home city of the person I was answering, that was all.  

No apology needed. 

We were on the Silhouette earlier this month in an inside room on Deck 10. It was larger than insides on other cruise lines. The bed was comfortable. We only had a chair not a sofa.  The bathroom was a good size. We felt the storage was lacking.

Try the E class insides. The regular is 181 Sq feet and deluxe is 202 large king bed with good size sofa  and plenty of storage. I've booked twice at the same price as the smaller inside.

Thanks Drakes

Marketing, mainly.

How do you work out which inside rooms have sofas and not chairs? We usually travel with Disney where every room on every ship seems to have a review but on Celebrity it's hard to find a listing of rooms with sofas. This is for Silhouette and Millennium if anyone knows of such a list.

I like the question. I was trying to find it out by myself as well.

Please note this is just my theory. Not speaking from experience.

I think in this ship class the front inside cabins are more narrow, but a bit longer, therefore there is space for the sofa. Less space to pass by the bed.

Aft inside cabins are wider, so there is only a chair to sit at the corner, no sofa. But little bit more space to walk around the bed.

Any comments are welcome!

Did anyone happen to have been in cabin 1032 on the Silhouette?  Can’t decide if it’s worth it to spend the money to move to a higher category if we mostly just sleep, shower and catch the news while we have our morning coffee.  It will be quite a difference from our most awesome aft room 1676!!

C elebrity Cruises’ flagship vessel, Celebrity Ascent , is setting sail for the first time in Europe when the ship arrives in Barcelona on Saturday, April 27.

Celebrity Ascent will start her European adventure with a nine-night Italian Riviera and France itinerary before serving the region throughout the summer. The ship will visit destinations in Spain, Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Turkey.

I spent $2,000 for 7 nights in a 179-square-foot room on one of the world's largest cruise ships. Take a look inside my cabin.

• I booked a stateroom on Royal Caribbean's Wonder of the Seas, one of the biggest cruise ships.
• For $2,000 a week, the 179-square-foot cabin had a private bathroom, a king-size bed, and a view.
• I thought I'd feel cramped in the room, but it had everything I needed and left no space unused.

In April 2022, I cruised on board Royal Caribbean's Wonder of the Seas . At the time, it was the largest cruise ship in the world , but the title has since been replaced by Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas .

During my voyage, the ship sailed to Roatán, Honduras; Cozumel and Costa Maya in Mexico; and Royal Caribbean's private island in the Bahamas .

For $2,000, I spent seven nights in an ocean-view stateroom on deck eight. The cruise was on sale, as it was originally priced at $3,000. Take a look inside the 179-square-foot space.

My room was a mid-tier cabin at the front of deck eight.

I booked a mid-tier room — a step above interior staterooms , which have no window. It's a category below staterooms with a balcony , and two steps below a suite.

My cabin was on the same deck as Central Park, an outdoor space with 20,000 plants.

I thought it was the most relaxing area on the ship, so I enjoyed being close by.

When I stepped inside my stateroom, I was surprised at how big it felt.

Right away, I thought the cabin made great use of a small space.

To operate most of the electricity in the room, I had to insert my room key into a slot on the wall.

I appreciated the energy-saving system.

On one side of the room, I had a mirror and a desk with several outlets to charge electronics with USB, American, and European ports.

I thought the desk was useful for eating, as well as storing daily flyers about the day's events.

Next to the desk, a set of drawers included a cabinet with a minifridge inside.

The desk drawers were mostly empty aside from a hair dryer, which I didn't end up using.

Across from the desk, I had a couch positioned in between two closets.

Inside each closet, I found a rack of hangers, shelving, and a small safe. I thought it was plenty of space for a weeklong journey

Next to the couch and desk area, a small bathroom used clever storage hacks, like placing the trash can and toilet paper under the counter.

In the bathroom, there were two glasses, a bar of soap, and a two-in-one hair and body wash.

At the top of the shower, a pullout clothing line was useful for drying my bathing suits.

Each night, my stateroom attendant replenished towels and brought flyers and schedules for the next day.

Sometimes, the towels were folded creatively to look like animals.

I noticed that my king-size bed at the back of the room was actually two twin beds pushed together.

All Royal Caribbean cabins come with this configuration, according to its website , so they may be separated for additional guests. I often woke up in the crevice.

A large flat-screen TV was mounted across from the bed with storage hooks below.

Skinny nightstands on either side of the bed held lamps, charging ports, and a room phone on one side.

Because I booked an ocean-view room, I was able to look out over the front of the ship from a window above my bed.

The window was equipped with an electronic shade that could be opened during the day for grand views and closed when I was ready to sleep.

While I thought the room might have been a tight space for a couple with a lot of luggage or a family, it was just right for me.

And watching the sun rise over the Caribbean Sea from the comfort of my room was the best part.

Inside Taylor Swift and Kim Kardashian’s years-long feud

Kim Kardashian has stoked her years-long feud with Taylor Swift with an eyebrow-raising photo, just days after the singer released a savage diss track.

‘Severe’: Star faces heinous claims

Huge development in star’s legal woes

Star sparks debate after wild confession

It’s the showbiz feud that refuses to die.

Kim Kardashian has stoked the coals of her almost decade-long war with Taylor Swift this week by posting a selfie with the singer’s former best friend, model Karlie Kloss .

It comes one week after Swift released what many saw as a diss track about Kardashian on her chart-topping album The Tortured Poets Department.

In the track, titled thanK you aIMee — spelling out KIM in strategically placed capital letters — Swift, 34, sings about being unable to forgive a “spray-tanned” bully who threw punches at her.

Following the song’s release, Kardashian lost more than 100,000 Instagram followers — a huge dent to the audience on one her most lucrative platforms.

It comes as The Sun can exclusively reveal deep-seated speculation from Swifties that Kardashian, 43, had been targeting Swift’s friends to appear in her Skims campaigns.

Last month, Sabrina Carpenter, Swift’s long-time friend and the main support act on her Eras world tour, starred in a campaign for the reality star’s lingerie line.

The sponsored posts, showing the up-and-coming star posing in Barbie pink underwear, saw Carpenter gain 30,000 followers on Instagram overnight.

It prompted an outcry from Swift’s fans — known as Swifties — who flooded the comments section to tell Carpenter they were “disappointed” in her, with one saying: “It makes me question your friendship with Taylor.”

The collaboration is the latest in a long line of Skims partnerships that fans think will have ruffled Swift’s feathers.

In February, Kardashian recruited singer Lana Del Ray — another of Swift’s closest pals and collaborators — to model her Valentine’s underwear range.

No expense was spared on the campaign, which received widespread media attention and launched just days before Swift and Del Ray attended the 2024 Grammys together.

And in October 2023 — shortly after Swift confirmed her romance with Kansas City Chiefs American football player Travis Kelce — Kardashian enlisted Swift’s new NFL WAG bestie Brittany Mahomes and her husband Patrick, who plays alongside tight end Travis, for a family pyjama campaign.

But it is her latest post with model Kloss that cuts the deepest, with Swift’s former best friend and once-closest confidante defecting to the side of the Kardashians star.

This picture wasn’t a campaign image intended to drive underwear sales but an intimate photograph of the pair at a party with other friends.

Fans were quick to point out that the picture of Kardashian and Kloss was at least two years old and questioned why she would post it now — four days after Swift’s album release — if it was not a pointed attack.

Swift and Kloss — once inseparable, with the Victoria’s Secret model a prominent member of Swift’s infamous girl squad and even appearing on the cover of Vogue magazine with her — have never addressed their feud publicly.

But it is widely believed they fell out after Kloss maintained a working relationship with record label executive Scooter Braun when he sold the masters of Swift’s first six albums for $300 million in 2020.

It prompted the I Knew You Were Trouble hit maker to start re-recording her entire back catalogue and hit out at Braun for “bullying” her, which he vehemently denies.

While other stars distanced themselves from Braun in the aftermath, Kloss invited him to both of her weddings, where Swift was notably absent.

Swifties also hit out at Kloss for never speaking out against Braun when Swift publicly begged other stars under his management to help her. While her other best friends, model Gigi Hadid and singer Selena Gomez, both hit out at him, Kloss was slammed for posting a stream of photos of herself amid the ongoing drama.

Last August, Kloss was seen in the cheap seats at the final show of the Eras tour in LA while the rest of Swift’s world-famous friends enjoyed the show from a VIP tent, cementing the end of their friendship to the singer’s legion of loyal fans.

And now Kloss is friends with Kardashian, it seems there is no going back.

Kardashian launched her first attack on Swift in 2016, when her then-husband Kanye West released Famous , a song which included the lyrics “I made that b***h famous” in reference to him storming Swift’s VMAs acceptance speech in 2009, and claimed he could “have sex” with her if he wanted.

Swift branded the lyrics misogynistic, and Kardashian retaliated by posting a secret recording of a phone call taken some months before in which West had read a selection of his lyrics out to Swift which she seemingly agreed to.

Kardashian’s fans then flooded Swift’s Instagram account with snake emojis, calling her out as a liar. And Kardashian did nothing to calm the storm, posting a string of snake emojis on her own social media.

The hashtag #TaylorSwiftIsOverParty began trending, prompting Swift to go into hiding for two years.

It was during this time she wrote her 2017 Reputation album in response to the drama.

Fans took the track Look What You Made Me Do to be an attack on Kardashian, with the lyrics: “I don’t like your little games / Don’t like your tilted stage / The role you made me play of the fool / No, I don’t like you.”

A clip of the full conversation between West and Swift resurfaced in 2020, and appeared to dispel any evidence that Swift had agreed to the lyrics — and suggested the original clip had been manipulated.

But the damage was already done.

Swift spoke openly in several magazine interviews about the impact the feud had on her , telling Time last year: “That took me down psychologically to a place I’ve never been before.

“I moved to a foreign country. I didn’t leave a rental house for a year. I was afraid to get on phone calls. I pushed away most people in my life because I didn’t trust anyone any more. I went down really, really hard.”

In the years that followed, famous friends of the pair have been forced to choose between the two camps.

Kardashian’s sister Kendall Jenner, one of the A-listers who supported Swift on stage in London in 2015, has not been seen with her since, with Kardashian saying in a 2017 interview: “Kendall was never part of Taylor’s squad.”

More Coverage

Meanwhile, Swift’s long-term best friend, Selena Gomez, distanced herself from the Kardashians after the drama, despite having fledgling friendships with both Kendall and Kylie Jenner.

And while Kardashian had appeared to try to quash the feud in recent years, posting Swift’s songs on her social media profiles and telling one chat show host that the war was over, it seems Swift’s latest release has dispelled any peace between the pair.
