    Taylor-Swift-and-Tom-HiddlestonTaylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston ‘breakup insurance’ that was recently put up for sale by a Chinese website has been withdrawn, after legal concerns were raised! Apparently, Taobao, the Chinese e-commerce website had been promoting a pseudo-insurance plan called ‘breakup insurance’ that promised to pay back buyers double their investment if Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston ended their relationship in a certain time-frame.

    Since the time the couple’s romance became official last week, the breakup insurance sold as a top product on the e-commerce site prior to removal .The Company was offering breakup insurance based on Taylor Swift’s love life following the sighting of her photos with Tom Hiddleston.

    Taobao is China’s biggest online shopping site founded by Alibaba Group on May 10, 2003 and sells all sorts of products ranging from clothing items to peculiar items such as pee sticks for kids.

    The duo was spotted in Rome, Italy together –

    Reportedly, the punters had started taking bets on the online marketplace to predict if Swift’s relationship with Hiddleston would end within a limited time-frame. The bet that started with 1 Yuan (US$0.15) saw people investing up to 300 Yuan (US$45).

    Online comments suggest that many of those paying for the bizarre insurance were female fans of Hiddleston who is immensely popular in China.

    A Chinese daily reported, recently that the Taylor Swift ‘breakup insurance’ is not a one-off, citing that insurance packages for celeb couples such as Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom were also available for sale on the site.
