Joe Alwyn and Taylor Swift‘s six-year relationship, which began in 2016, was marked by privacy and mutual support. During their relationship, Swift wrote several songs about Alwyn, including “Gorgeous,” “Lover,” and tracks from her Folklore and Evermore albums, where he co-wrote under the pseudonym William Bowery. Their breakup in early 2023 surprised fans, as they had maintained a low-profile romance.

The exact reasons remain private, but sources suggest the split was amicable, driven by differences in their lifestyles and careers. Their breakup coincided with Swift’s Eras Tour, which she continued with strength and professionalism. The tour saw her performing emotionally charged songs that fans speculate were influenced by their relationship and subsequent split.
