Taylor Swift's ex Joe Alwyn breaks silence on their split

In April of last year, the media reported that the six-year relationship between Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn had ended. This news shocked fans, as the couple had kept their relationship away from the public eye, and everything seemed to indicate they were planning a future together.

A year later, Taylor Swift released her 11th album, "The Tortured Poets Department", in which the artist reflected on her past. In her new songs, she alluded to her previous relationship significantly. Finally, there is a comment from her former lover.

Taylor Swift easily describes her private life through her songs, giving fans the freedom to analyze on their own. Connecting the dots in the case of "So Long, London" was not a difficult task, as the singer had previously referred to Alwyn as her "London boy".

"For so long, London. Stitches undone. Two graves, one gun. I'll find someone ..." Taylor Swift sang.

Fuel was added to the fire by "Loml", in which the singer confessed that she really wanted to settle down. At the same time, Joe Alwyn had allegedly promised her an engagement and starting a family, which, as we know, did not happen. The actor faced a huge wave of criticism in the media, which he addressed for the first time in an interview with The Sunday Times Style.

I tried to quiet that noise. Of course, I was aware of the comments, and I think that insulting someone, whether personally or anonymously through a keyboard, is disgraceful. I am certain that, given the level of noise and the intense scrutiny of my previous relationship, you can understand why I don't want to open the door to such things now - he stated.

Joe Alwyn claims that analyses of his past relationship with Taylor Swift do not necessarily align with reality. He has worked through the emotions connected with the breakup and feels much better today.

You have something that is very real (editor's note: the feeling), but it suddenly gets thrown into a very unreal space - tabloids, social media, press, where it is dissected, analyzed, stretched into unimaginable shapes. The truth is, there will always be a gap between what is known and what actually happened. I have come to terms with that. It's been over a year, and I feel happy, being in a really good place in life, both professionally and personally - he added.
