It has been nearly three years since longtime partners Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn parted ways after six years of romance. The Love Story singer has since happily moved on with her soon-to-be husband, Travis Kelce, and the excitement is at an all-time high for Swifties. Amid this, the pop sensation’s messy past with Alwyn returned to the spotlight after the Hamnet star packed on the PDA with actress Sarah Pidgeon ahead of Swift and Kelce’s wedding.
Alwyn was recently photographed kissing the Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette star during a casual date night in New York City. The timing of the spotting has raised eyebrows, with many Swifties calling it a PR move on Alwyn’s part, considering this is the first time that the actor sparked romance buzz since his 2023 breakup.

Popular celebrity gossip account DeuxMoi first shared photos of Joe Alwyn and Sarah Pidgeon as they walked through Brooklyn’s Fort Greene neighborhood.

DeuxMoi claimed this was actually the pair’s second outing, with another meetup reportedly taking place the previous week. However, the outlet noted it could not confirm if the meetings were romantic dates or just professional meetings. In any case, the appearances have certainly sparked plenty of chatter online.

Why did Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn break up after six years of dating?
Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn were formerly considered one of Hollywood’s most adored and discreet couples. The duo allegedly started dating in 2016, but word of their relationship didn’t surface until 2017. Alwyn inspired some of Swift’s songs throughout their six-year relationship and even worked on her music under the moniker ‘William Bowery’.
Despite their strong bond, reports emerged in April 2023 that the couple had quietly parted ways. Sources close to them described the breakup as amicable, insisting there was no drama or public fallout. Sources close to them described the split as amicable and insisted there was no drama or public backlash. According to sources, Swift chose to call it quits when he saw they weren’t right for the long run.
Insiders suggested that differences in personality played a key role in the split, with Swift enjoying a very public career and global superstardom, while Alwyn tended to lead a much more private life. The couple was said to have thrived during the pandemic years, but struggled to mesh their contrasting lifestyles once normal life resumed. After a year of the infamous split, in a 2024 interview with The Sunday Times Style, Alwyn revealed that the end of such a long and loving relationship wasn’t easy to get over. He said:
“I feel fortunate to be in a really great place in my life, professionally and personally. I feel really good.”
When Taylor Swift supposedly addressed the heartbreak through music
Although Swift never publicly discussed her breakup with the Hamnet star in detail, fans have long believed several songs offered insight into the relationship’s end. Tracks like You’re Losing Me and So Long, London became central to fan theories, with many interpreting the lyrics as reflections on a relationship that gradually fell apart. Alwyn largely stayed silent until his July 2024 interview with The Sunday Times Style, when he addressed the rumors about Swift’s album, The Tortured Poets Department. He was quoted as saying:
“I would hope that anyone and everyone can empathize and understand the difficulties that come with the end of a long, loving, fully committed relationship of over six and a half years. That is a hard thing to navigate. What is unusual and abnormal in this situation is that, one week later, it’s suddenly in the public domain and the outside world is able to weigh in.”
After the highly publicized split from Swift, Joe Alwyn rarely sparked discussions about a newfound romance, with some unverified linkups surfacing occasionally. Notably, his PDA-filled moment with Sarah Pidgeon marks the first time that things may be looking serious for the actor.
