Taylor Swift's Fearless (Taylor’s Version) has set a new record on the UK Official Albums Chart, passing The Beatles for getting three Number One albums in the shortest time ever.
Last Friday (9 April) saw Swift release her highly-anticipated Fearless (Taylor's Version) album, and after topping the UK Official Albums Chart today (16 April), the Official Charts has confirmed that Swift's latest chart topper has set a new record.
The new record is for achieving three UK Number One albums in the shortest amount of time, overtaking The Beatles who held the previous record for 54 years.
