Joe Alwyn Speaks Out: Taylor Swift's Engagement and His Hope for Her Happiness
SCANDALOUS! Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's Fairy Tale Romance Leaves Her Ex, Joe Alwyn, Heartbroken
The ultimate celebrity love triangle has unfolded, leaving fans of the global superstar, Taylor Swift, in a frenzy. After two years of whispers about her whirlwind romance with Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce, 35, Taylor has finally confirmed the news that has been sending shockwaves through Tinseltown: she's ENGAGED! The singer-songwriter took to social media on Tuesday to share intimate photos from their engagement shoot, giving fans a glimpse into their romantic garden setting. But amidst all the joy and congratulations pouring in for the couple, one person is not exactly thrilled – her ex, Joe Alwyn.
For Swifties, Taylor's engagement to the charming football star was always going to be the perfect fairy tale ending to her long list of high-profile relationships. From her brief romance with Joe Jonas to her highly publicized flings with Harry Styles and Matty Healy, Taylor has never been afraid to take risks in love. But none of those past relationships seemed to have had the same level of chemistry as she shared with Alwyn, whom she dated for a whopping six years before their split in April 2023.
According to insiders close to the couple, Joe struggled with Taylor's level of fame during their relationship, which ultimately drove them apart. The normally private British actor has since kept a low profile following their breakup, but a source has now revealed that he genuinely hopes Taylor is happy – even if he won't be reaching out to congratulate her anytime soon.
"Taylor's engagement is the final nail in the coffin for Joe," the insider claimed to thescholarlynote.com. "He feels that it's not needed and that she wouldn't want to hear from him anyway."
The source also hinted that Alwyn has moved on from his relationship with Taylor, focusing on his career and personal life instead of dwelling on their breakup.
While fans had long speculated about a potential engagement or even marriage between the former couple, Taylor was quick to shut down those rumors after their split. Her longtime publicist, Tree Paine, slammed claims that they tied the knot in either 2020 or 2021, leaving fans wondering what really went down behind closed doors.
As for Joe's current love life, he's been keeping it under wraps – unlike his former flame, who has been flaunting her romance with Kelce on social media. In a recent interview with The Sunday Times Style, Alwyn reflected on their decision not to share "details" about each other with the public.
"As everyone knows, we together - both of us, mutually - decided to keep the more private details of our relationship private," he said. "It was never something to commodify and I see no reason to change that now."
But what's clear is that Alwyn has moved on from his time with Taylor – and so has Matty Healy, who she briefly dated after her split from Joe. Their whirlwind romance ended just as quickly as it began, thanks in part to the controversy surrounding Matty's comments about rapper Ice Spice.
Meanwhile, Taylor's romance with Travis Kelce has been blossoming for months, with insiders claiming that they met on her Eras Tour and quickly hit it off. The football star even attempted to give her a friendship bracelet during one of her shows – but it seems his efforts paid off in the end!
With their engagement news sending shockwaves through social media, fans are now eagerly awaiting details about their upcoming nuptials. And as for Joe Alwyn? Well, let's just say he's happy to have Taylor out of the spotlight and back on the market.
As one insider quipped: "They have both moved on from what was once very special and Joe now hopes that he can focus on his life and career, and is considered more than just Taylor's ex."
