Joe also revealed that the situation after their breakup was difficult
Joe Alwyn also revealed that the situation after their breakup was difficult because it became public within a week, making it impossible to grieve privately. He also blamed fame and media attention for their separation, while hinting that there was more to the story, but he wouldn’t reveal it or give an inch if he was currently dating.
He added: “… there will always be a gap between what is known and what is said. I’ve accepted that.” Alwyn said he and the pop star “mutually” decided to “keep the most personal details of our relationship private”, adding, “It was never something that could be commodified and I don’t see any reason to change that now”.
More To That
Joe Alwyn also told the Times that he is currently doing well in all aspects of his life.
“I feel fortunate to be in a really great place in my life, professionally and personally,” he said. “I feel great.”
Regarding his romantic life, Alwyn has remained tight-lipped on whether or not he is dating anyone new, adding: “I’m sure you can understand, given the level of publicity and scrutiny surrounding my last relationship, why I would not open the door to such things now.”
Following her split from Alwyn, Swift has been dating Kansas City Chiefs football player Travis Kelce.
