As Taylor Swift's latest album, ‘The Tortured Poets department’, sparked speculations about its potential connection to her past relationship with Joe Alwyn, it is clear from the reports that the actor has moved on.
A source told People that Taylor's ex, Joe Alwyn, is 'dating and happy' amid the release of her 11th studio album.
'He’s a great guy and not into drama in any way,' the insider said, noting that Alwyn 'moved on' from Swift 34.
After their 6-year relationship ended last year, the source said he 'certainly doesn’t talk poorly about her,' adding: 'He was in love with her, and it just didn’t work out.'
"Joe loves acting, but can’t stand the attention that comes with it. He’s not comfortable in the spotlight," the source stated.
Alwyn is 'doing well' and 'focused on work' as the source noted, 'Joe loves acting, but can't stand the attention that comes with it. He's not comfortable in the spotlight.'
Swift appeared to take aim at Alwyn on multiple tracks from TTPD, which left him 'slightly disappointed, but not surprised at all,' a source previously told DailyMail.com.
'There has been absolutely zero contact between them,' they said. 'She did not run these songs by him, but he did not expect her to.'
The source added: 'She didn’t really trash him or defame him. Joe is not going to react to this.'
Alwyn has since reportedly banned any questions about the album and his relationship with Swift from the upcoming press tour for his movie Kinds of Kindness.
The British actor happens to co-star with Swift's pal Emma Stone in the Yorgos Lanthimos-helmed film.
Swift dated Alwyn from 2017 to 2023, during which the 14-time Grammy winner mostly retreated from the spotlight.
They won a Grammy together for Album of the Year in 2021 after he co-wrote and co-produced several tracks on Folklore under the pseudonym William Bowery.
