The information that Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn broke up was confirmed by CNN on April 8. The source said that the couple decided to break up peacefully after the irreversible rift that occurred last weekend.

“He gives me the most ordinary and honest emotions,” Swift once expressed in an interview with Rolling Stone. They got married in 2016, and the female singer has never been afraid to reveal her boyfriend to the press. Swift’s inspiration for composing the album Lover (2019) was also taken from her romance with a younger actor. Photo: Billboard.
Before Alwyn, Swift was in a relationship with Tom Hiddleston. The two dated briefly after meeting for the first time at the Met Gala event in May 2016. At that time, Swift – with her history of quickly falling in love with many men – was criticized for not being worthy of a Marvel actor. And after only three months, the pair also went their separate ways. Photo: Vanity Fair.
There was a time when Calvin Harris became a media focus when holding hands with Swift in public. The Scottish DJ confirmed that he has had a crush on the famous singer since March 2015. But not long after, Swift broke up with Harris saying he did not respect her. As for the male DJ, he felt regretful for saying harsh words to his ex-girlfriend. Photo: Vanity Fair.
In late 2012 and early 2013, Harry Styles was the guy who caught the “eye” of singer You Belong With Me. But very suddenly, after just two months, this love story broke down after a heated argument on vacation in the British Virgin Island. Similar to previous “failed” relationships, Swift quickly tormented Styles in a series of songs written by herself such as I Knew You Were Trouble, Style, Out Of The Woods. Photo: Elle.
Swift and Conor Kennedy – Robert F. Kennedy’s nephew – fell in love for a few short months in 2012. At that time, her boyfriend was only 18 years old. Connor’s youth is the reason why the female singer is tired and wants to give up. “Conor is just an 18-year-old kid and not ready for anything profound, while Taylor wants to find her partner. That scares Conor,” a source said. Photo: Page Six.
Jake Gyllenhaal is probably Swift’s most talked about ex. After the breakup, he was fiercely criticized by her on the album Red. The songs We Are Never Getting Back Together, State of Grace or The Moment I Knew… are considered a mental attack on the actor. Even in 2021, the female singer released the short film All Too Well about their love. According to TMZ, the reason Swift is angry with Gyllenhaal is because the Brokeback Mountain star broke up with her via text message because of the “age difference”. Photo: Cheatsheet.
At the end of December 2009, Swift dated John Mayer. She only stayed with the “bad boys” of the international music industry for exactly three months. After the breakup, the Bad Blood singer said that Mayer was a heartless person who dated but did not pay any attention to this relationship. The male singer is also said to be one of the reasons why Swift and Katy Perry – his other ex – fell out with each other. Photo: ET.
Before getting married to handsome guy Lucas Till, Swift dated Taylor Lautner. This relationship only lasted a few months. After the breakup, she gave “Werewolf” the song Back to December to apologize to her boyfriend, whose relationship broke up just because she was indifferent. Photo: People.
Lucas Till is praised as the most handsome among Swift’s lovers. The two fell in love when they starred together in the hit MV You Belong With Me – the song that helped the female singer gain global fame. However, after a year of courtship, Till made fans dissatisfied by saying “only sees Swift as a friend”. Photo: Us Weekly.
Joe Jonas – one of Swift’s first boyfriends – caused controversy because he publicly mocked his ex-lover as a girl “abandoned by many men”.
