Taylor Swift's longtime best friend has dropped a major announcement with a sweet nod to their years-long friendship.

Abigail Anderson – now Anderson Berard – is a name all Taylor Swift fans know since she was name dropped on the singer's 2008 track Fifteen as the 'red-head named Abigail'.

Over the years the duo have remained close friends. Anderson even joined her famous bestie on The Ellen Degeneres Show and was her plus one to the 2015 Grammy Awards.

Now, Anderson Berard has used a lyric from her high school bestie's latest album to announce she is expecting her first child with husband Charles Berard.

Anderson Berard shared a picture to Instagram of her very obvious pregnancy bump while snacking on a box of Cheez-Its.

The 34-year-old tagged her husband, who she tied the knot with in 2022, in the post.

"I'm having his babyyyy… 💙" she captioned the announcement, using a line from Swift's song But Daddy I Love Him off her 11th studio album The Tortured Poets Department.

The full line from the song, which got added to Swift's Eras Tour setlist in May goes: "I'm having his baby. No, I'm not, but you should see your faces."

The post was unsurprisingly inundated with messages from Swifties who congratulated the mum-to-be and commented "you should see our faces".

Some of Swift's inner circle also commented messages of congratulations under the announcement post, including actor Miles Teller's wife Keleigh Teller and former Victoria's Secret model Lily Aldridge.
