The meeting was captured in a heartfelt TikTok video shared by the girls' mother, Sami Foster.

The video shows Swift embracing the two girls, who were dressed in "Red"-inspired T-shirts and black shorts, as they beamed with joy.

One of the girls, whose arm was bandaged, had written the poignant lyrics "You drew stars around my scars" from Swift's song "Cardigan" on her bandage.

Foster expressed her deep gratitude in the video caption, thanking the Swift family for bringing "pure happiness" to her daughters, Hope and Autumn, during what has been an incredibly difficult time.

This meeting is part of a broader outreach by Swift, who reportedly reached out to all the families affected by the Southport tragedy.

Last month, a 17-year-old attacker targeted a Taylor Swift-themed dance class in Southport, resulting in the deaths of three young girls and injuries to eight others.

The little girls who died in the tragedy were Bebe King, 6, Elise Dot Stancombe, 7, and Alice Dasilva Aguilar, 9.

The motive behind the attack remains unknown, but the impact on the community has been profound.

In the aftermath, Swift shared her shock and sorrow with her followers, describing the news as "horrendous trauma" that continues to weigh on her.

"The horror of yesterday's attack in Southport is washing over me continuously and I'm just completely in shock...," the "Maroon" hitmaker wrote on her Instagram Story.

"The loss of life and innocence, and the horrendous trauma inflicted on everyone who was there, the families and first responders," she continued.

"These were just little kids at a dance class."

The singer, known for her strong connection with her fans, has since been involved in ing the victims and their families.
