Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn Call It Quits After Six Years: Here’s What We Know

The recent breakup of Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn after six years together shocked the entertainment industry. Supporters of the couple had previously heard that they were content with their relationship and doing well. But it appears that something had happened behind the scenes, as the pair have now formally parted ways. What is known about the breakup and what could have caused it are detailed below.

The Break-Up Information

Entertainment Tonight reports that the divorce took place “a few weeks ago.” The source continued by saying that the split was peaceful and unspectacular and that the pair had just become estranged. A person close to the couple spoke to People magazine and verified the breakup; Page Six quoted an anonymous source. Swift and Alwyn had broken up a few weeks prior, according to a CNN, which added that they intended to stay friends.

On the breakup as of Sunday afternoon, neither Swift nor Alwyn had made any public statements. Despite the fact that Swift is presently on tour and unable to respond to requests for comment, their agents have not yet responded.

The Relationship’s Length

Swift and Alwyn kept their relationship very private, but rumours of their romance initially surfaced in 2017. Fans assumed that the two had first crossed paths at the 2016 Met Gala, and the song “Dress” by Taylor Swift appeared to confirm this. The duo has since shared countless photos of themselves together and made relationship-related comments on social media. Yet, there is no proof to back up the years-old engagement rumours that have been going around.

Eras Tour by Swift

Following the announcement of the split, Swift’s followers started to wonder if she had made any allusions to it while on her Eras tour. During her performance in Texas, Swift swapped out the song “Invisible String,” which is about her relationship with Joe Alwyn, with the murkier breakup song “The 1.” Fans of Swift have been scouring her music and lineup for hints, though it’s unclear if the switch is connected to the breakup.
