He's so sweet! Harry Styles treats birthday girl Taylor Swift to 23 cupcakes as he takes her home to Cheshire

They've only been going out a couple of weeks, so it's probably too soon for Harry Styles to spend a small fortune on new girlfriend Taylor Swift.
So as the American country singer marked her 23rd birthday in his company on Thursday, the teenager decided to present her with a box of cupcakes as a treat for her special day.
Following a day trip to the Lake District on Wednesday, the couple spent Taylor's actual birthday in Harry's home county of Cheshire.

Custom Cupcake Company owner Matt Blakely told the Warrington Guardian: 'The woman said it was for Harry Styles but I didn’t know who that was at first.
'We had got a lot of orders before Christmas but she said he desperately needed them so we said ok.
