Taylor Swift flees Australia via her private jet after her father was accused of assaulting a local photographer at a Sydney wharf following her last Eras concert

Taylor Swift was spotted leaving Australia on her private jet on Tuesday after her father Scott was accused of assaulting a local photographer.

The American singer’s private jet left Sydney Airport on Tuesday morning, just hours after her final Eras tour concert in the city on Monday evening.

Her departure comes just hours after her father Scott, 71, was accused of punching Ben McDonald, 51, at a ferry terminal in the suburb of Neutral Bay about 2.30am on Tuesday, after the Australian leg of her Eras tour concluded .

Taylor’s team has said that Scott allegedly punched an Australian photographer in the face after “threatening to throw a female staff member into the water.”

Taylor and Scott had traveled from Homebush on a luxury superyacht called Quantum before the alleged attack.

A spokeswoman for Taylor Swift told Ny Breaking Australia the photographers were “aggressive.”

“Two individuals aggressively pushed their way towards Taylor, grabbed her security staff and threatened to throw a female staff member into the water,” she said.

However, Mr McDonald – the CEO of Matrix Media Group – branded the statement “complete nonsense” and said Taylor was the only woman at the scene.

Police confirmed they were investigating claims that Scott Swift, 71, attacked a photographer. Taylor was pictured under the umbrella last night, next to her father Scott (right).

“This is the kind of bulls**t I would expect,” he said.

‘Which woman was that? The only one there was Taylor.”

Mr McDonald said the altercation was caught on camera and did not show the photographers behaving aggressively.

The North Shore Police Command has launched an investigation into the alleged incident.

The photographer previously accused Scott of ‘attacking’ him while he was off the superyacht with Taylor.

He initially thought it was a security guard and was shocked to realize the alleged attacker was the pop star’s father.

Mr McDonald also said he did not know what prompted the alleged attack.

“In 23 years of taking pictures, I’ve never seen anything like this,” he said.

“She got off the boat and walked towards the guards who were shoving umbrellas in our faces.”

Footage of the alleged incident showed Taylor and her father leaving the dock with large umbrellas blocking the view.

Mr McDonald started shooting when a security guard was heard telling him not to touch the umbrella.

The camera shook and there was movement from behind the umbrella.

A security guard could be heard saying: “That wasn’t me, that wasn’t me.”

Mr. McDonald asked, “Who was that?”

He then went to The Rocks Police Station and reported the alleged incident.

Mr McDonald did not require medical attention and does not believe he will suffer permanent injuries, but has “very painful chops” on the left side of his face.

Scott was a fixture at his daughter’s side during her sold-out Eras tour.

He has been praised for handing out sandwiches to fans in the middle of a show in Sydney and saying ‘help yourself’.

Additional tickets were released the day before Taylor’s first show in Melbourne earlier this month, but most had limited views of the stage.

Scott walked around handing out VIP passes so that excited fans would have access to better seats.
