Eamonn Holmes said that he would never go out with Taylor Swift as she's a bitter woman

In a recent installment of GB News, Eamonn Holmes said that he would never date Taylor Swift as she's a "bitter woman." He made the comment as Swift allegedly bashes her exes in her songs.

The discussion was about Liz Jones' column in the Daily Mail, where she appreciated the popstar for "calling out" her ex-boyfriends, per GB News.

Liz Jones praised Swift for her lyrics, and said that "revenge isn't just best served cold".

"I admire Taylor Swift for trashing her exes in songs. I've been publicly shaming mine for 25 years. Revenge isn’t just best served cold. It becomes deliciously deadly when dished up in front of a global audience of 17 million open-mouthed people." Jones wrote.

Discussing Jones' views and Swift's long list of exes, Holmes said he did not want to go out with the singer. Co-host Isabel Webster asked Eamonn what his "real view" about Taylor was and noted that the latter believed Swift has had a "lot of boyfriends."

Eamonn agreed with Webster and said that Swift is not "very successful at holding on to them [her boyfriends]." He added that after they break up, she inevitably "writes a song and she slags them off in it."

Scarlett MccGwire, the commentator, added that it is the "price you pay" for dating the singer. She also pointed out that in her piece, writer Liz Jones admitted that she "does the same".

MccGwire took a jibe at Liz Jones and said that Taylor Swift writes "beautiful songs that actually inspire people" while Jones "slags off her exes" and calls both of them artists.

"The problem is, if you go out with Taylor Swift or Liz Jones or any writer, that's the price you pay."

In response, Eamonn Holmes said that he had been "put off" and would not go out with Taylor.
