Taylor Swift is dating Conor Kennedy-- and his family approves.

His sister, Kathleen “Kick” Kennedy, said “Whatever makes Conor happy makes me happy.  I loveTaylor; they're pretty cute together.”

Their cousin, author Christopher Lawford, added that if the relationship is helping 18-year-old Conor to get over the suicide of his mother, then he is all for it.

Former U.S. Representative Patrick Kennedy also gave his blessing to the pair.

NOT EVERYONE ON BOARD?

Meantime, Conor's father is concerned that his son has been neglecting his studies....

He has warned Conor to stay focused on getting into an Ivy League college, because he won’t allow Taylor Swift to be a distraction.
