In April last year, the media reported that Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn's six-year relationship had ended. This news shocked fans, as the couple had kept their relationship away from the public eye, and everything seemed to indicate they were planning a future together.

A year later, Taylor Swift released her 11th album, "The Tortured Poets Department", in which the artist reflected on her past. In her new songs, she alluded to her previous relationship significantly. Finally, there is a comment from her former lover.

Taylor Swift easily describes her private life through her songs, allowing fans to analyze them independently. Connecting the dots in the case of "So Long, London" was not a difficult task, as the singer had previously referred to Alwyn as her "London boy."

For so long, London. Stitches undone. Two graves, one gun. I'll find someone... - Taylor Swift sang.

"Loml," in which the singer confessed that she wanted to settle down, added fuel to the fire. At the same time, Joe Alwyn had allegedly promised her an engagement and starting a family, which, as we know, did not happen. The actor faced a massive wave of criticism in the media, which he addressed for the first time in an interview with The Sunday Times Style.

I tried to quiet that noise. Of course, I was aware of the comments, and I think insulting someone personally or anonymously through a keyboard is disgraceful. I am certain that, given the noise level and intense scrutiny of my previous relationship, you can understand why I don't want to open the door to such things now - he stated.

Joe Alwyn claims that analyses of his past relationship with Taylor Swift do not necessarily align with reality. He has worked through the emotions connected with the breakup and feels much better today.

You have something very real (editor's note: the feeling), but it suddenly gets thrown into a very unreal space - tabloids, social media, and press, where it is dissected, analysed, and stretched into unimaginable shapes. The truth is, there will always be a gap between what is known and what happened. I have come to terms with that. It's been over a year, and I feel happy, being in a perfect place in life, professionally and personally - he added.
