Joe Alwyn Breaks Silence On Taylor Swift Breakup: 'I Feel Really Good'
HuffPost
The British actor, who dated Swift from 2017 to 2023, has shared his perspective on the split for the very first time.
Joe Alwyn feels “good” about his split with Taylor Swift — but does have a few complaints.
Swifties on social media were buzzing as Alwyn — whose breakup with the pop star in 2023 spawned endless speculation and fueled fans’ in-depth readings of her latest album, “The Tortured Poets Department” — has shared his perspective for the very first time.
“I would think and hope that anyone and everyone … can empathize and understand the difficulties that come with the end of a long, loving, fully committed relationship of over six and a half years,” he told The Times of London in an interview published Saturday.
Though Swift has since begun a new relationship with NFL star Travis Kelce, Alwyn said the breakup was a “a hard thing to navigate.”
The “Favourite” actor is thought to have inspired the lyrics to multiple Swift songs — in particular, 2017’s “Dress,” in which she seemingly chronicled first meeting Alwyn at the 2016 Met Gala. The two stars officially started dating the following year.
