Taylor Swift, the American singer and songwriter who sang ”Lavender Haze,” has just broken up with her boyfriend, Joe Alwyn, the professional English actor, and “Boy Erased” star, after 6 years of dating!!
The ex-couples reportedly started dating back in 2016 after they met at the 2016 Met Gala. Although they kept their relationship private for a couple of months, it all broke out in 2017 after their public link up again in May 2017.
It is quite surprising to see what appeared to be a happy relationship all along, go down the drain after so many years of getting it together. And the saddest part is that we were all anticipating a wedding soon enough, especially since rumours of Taylor Swift and ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn’s engagement already shook the internet some months ago. Even though, the ex-couples never publicly confirmed the rumours to be true.
But, withstanding the fact that almost everything these days begins with a rumour, take a look at what Joe Alwyn had to say after the news of his engagement with ex-girlfriend, Taylor Swift broke out.
He said, “Had it been I was given a quid, for all the times I’ve been told I was engaged, then I would have gathered a lot of coins by now.”
He went on to state that he wouldn’t confirm the rumours of his engagement with Taylor Swift, his ex-girlfriend now.
He said, “The truth is that, even if the answer was a yes, I would not confirm it, and if it was a no, I still would not confirm it.”
And considering that this is coming from a couple that had decided to keep their relationship off the records from the beginning, means that there could have been a whole lot of truth to the rumours of their engagement. Nonetheless, this is all in the past now considering their relationship is over now.
