Selena Gomez’s REACTION To Taylor Swift And Joe Alwyn’s BREAKUP- ‘ Did they also knew that this relationship was bound to end?’

Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn broke up in early 2023, after six years together, right around the time Swift began the Eras Tour. The end to their relationship came as a shock to Swifties worldwide who thought Alwyn was “The 1” for Swift, but it turns out the writing may have been on the wall for a while, if Swift’s music — including her 11th album, Tortured Poets Department — is any indication.

Throughout their time together, Swift and Alwyn kept a pretty low profile; the pair rarely stepped out together or made public appearances, and rarely spoke about their relationship to the press. Even still, fans fell in love with their love story and how they navigated fame and partnership in the spotlight, not to mention the many songs that were likely inspired by Alwyn. (“Gorgeous,” “Delicate,” “Invisible String,” and many more come to mind.) While we nurse our own broken hearts, let’s take a trip down memory lane with a full, comprehensive timeline of Taylor and Joe’s relationship.

Simultaneously, fans dug up an old story about how Joe Alwyn, Paul Mescal, and Andrew Scott are in a groupchat together called “The Tortured Man Club.”

Meanwhile — and, grain of salt here — an anonymous insider told The Daily Mail that Alwyn noted the connection and wasn’t thrilled by it. “Joe has not said one word about Taylor or their breakup and has been completely respectful of her,” the source said. “It’s undeniable that the name of her upcoming album is in reference to Joe’s WhatsApp group chat. Taylor knocked him for the name of this when they were together. She didn’t want people to think that it had anything to do with her, so when he spoke out about it, she was, of course, bothered.
was also around this time that fans began seeing Midnights as a breakup album, tracking the ends of Taylor Swift/Joe Alwyn as a couple.

When the song finally hit streaming services in November 23, 2023, producer Jack Antonoff shared a photo of Swift, writing that the song was recorded way back in December 2021 — which in turn caused speculation that the Alwyn/Swift breakup was a long time coming

In a new report from People on April 10, another source close to the former couple revealed that their breakup was mostly caused by “differences in their personalities,” noting that Taylor and Joe just “weren’t the right fit for one another.”

“They’ve had rough patches before and always worked things out, so friends thought they would take some time apart but eventually come back together,” the source told People. “They had plenty in common and fell in love in a safe bubble while she was retreating from the world during Reputation. Then the pandemic hit, and they were locked down together and able to continue growing their relationship in this insulated way. But he didn’t really ‘know’ her yet outside of that bubble.”

The source also shared that Joe “struggled” with the massive level of Taylor’s fame and the prying attention of the public. “The differences in their personalities have also become harder to ignore after years together. They’ve grown apart,” said the source. “Taylor didn’t see them working out in the long run.” Apparently, the breakup was amicable — the source described the split as “not dramatic” and emphasized that Taylor and Joe are “friendly.”

“She doesn’t have anything bad to say about Joe,” added the source. “Taylor is staying very focused on her tour right now… There is a lot of respect still between them.”
