Joe Alwyn and Taylor Swift dated from 2016 to April 2023. The 34-year-old actor was photographed at the red carpet in a chic black tux, white dress shirt and a black bow tie for the 2025 Oscars at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.
Alwyn plays the role of Harry Lee Van Buren, son of Harrison Lee Van Buren, a wealthy industrialist, in The Brutalist. The movie was nominated for 10 Academy Awards this year. Alwyn's appearance at the Oscars comes almost 2 years after his split from Taylor Swift. Since then, Alwyn has continued to keep his dating life private.
The two are rumored to have first met at the 2016 Met Gala, as mentioned in ELLE Magazine's timeline of their relationship. Fans believe that Taylor's Dress track from the 2017 album Reputation, is about their first encounter. In the track she mentions,
"Flashback when you met me / Your buzz cut and my hair bleached."
In April 2024, sources confirmed to Entertainment Tonight that the former couple had split amicably.
Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn relationship timeline
In 2017, a source told The Sun, that the two had been dating for several months.
"This isn't a new couple alert or a secret relationship. The only people this has been a secret to is the media because all of us - Taylor and Joe's closest friends and their families - were aware they have been together for several months and have known each other for a long time."
In May, 2018, Swift and Alwyn accidentally made their relationship, "Instagram official," per ELLE Magazine when they posted individual photos of themselves posing by the same cactus, hinting that they took a joint trip together. They were then photographed together at the Golden Globes, and the NME Awards in 2020.
The couple quarantined together in April, 2020, with engagement rumors surfacing in December, 2020, per the outlet. In February, 2022, Joe confirmed their relationship during an exclusive interview with E! News, saying,
"I'm obviously happy in a monogamous relationship. I think people can do what they want and makes them happy."
Trending
In March, 2023, Taylor dropped a previously unreleased song called All of the Girls You Loved Before, a month before sources confirmed their amicable split to Entertainment Tonight in April, 2023. Fans speculated that the song was about Joe.
Alwyn broke his silence on the split, a year later in a June 2024 interview with The Sunday Times, where he revealed that he was in a "long, loving, fully committed relationship of over six and a half years."
