Swift and her younger brother Austin have always been close. For her 29th birthday, the youngest Swift sibling shared a birthday tribute to his big sis, writing, "The gift of getting to witness you become the wonderful person you are today has been the greatest privilege and honor of my life. Happy 29th Birthday @taylorswift."
