Over a year after his breakup with pop superstar Taylor Swift, Joe Alwyn spoke out for the first time about their relationship. He revealed what the time after the breakup was like for him and whether he has already listened to Swift’s new album. Currently, Joe Alwyn is on a promotional tour for his new film „Kinds of Kindness.“ It’s not surprising that his prominent ex-girlfriend is a topic of discussion during this tour.
In an interview with the „Sunday Times Style,“ the 33-year-old actor talked about his time with Taylor Swift. The relationship was described as „long“ and „loving.“
The couple had been together for more than six years before announcing their breakup last spring. Fans speculate that Swift sings about Alwyn in some songs on her latest album, „The Tortured Poets Department,“ such as „So Long, London“ – Alwyn grew up in North London.
When asked if he had listened to the album, he did not give a direct answer in the interview with „Sunday Times Style.“ Instead, he said, „I would hope that everyone can empathize and understand the difficulties that come with the end of a long, loving, and committed relationship of over six and a half years.“
Regarding the breakup itself, Alwyn shared a bit more. He mentioned the unusual and abnormal aspect of the situation being that it suddenly became public a week later, allowing the outside world to interfere.
He accepted that there would always be a gap between what is known and what is said. He and Swift had decided together to keep the more private details of the relationship private and not use them for commercial purposes.
As for whether he is still in contact with Swift, he did not reveal. However, he emphasized that he was doing „really well“ both professionally and personally. Swift, on the other hand, seems to be happy as well. She is not only currently performing on her highly successful „The Eras“ tour in Europe, which will also make a stop in Vienna in August, but she is also in a new relationship.
Since her breakup with Alwyn, she has been dating football player Travis Kelce from the Kansas City Chiefs.
