In a May 18 interview with Extra, Joe Alwyn discussed his reaction to seeing his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, graduate from New York University with an honorary doctorate in fine arts. He gave a simple, but powerful statement that revealed his love and pride: “It’s an incredible honor, it’s absolutely amazing.”
Alwyn and Swift are notorious for not letting the public to see too far into their relationship, per Grazia. In fact, both have abstained almost entirely from posting about the other on social media and they avoid attending red carpet events where they might be photographed together. They also rarely discuss their relationship with the press, except for the occasional interview. In one such interview with The Times in late 2019, the “Conversations with Friends” actor gave a perfunctory response when asked what it felt like to know his girlfriend was writing songs about him. “It’s flattering,” he said.
The “Enchanted” singer has also dropped some comments about her relationship with Alwyn, including in her 2020 Netflix documentary, entitled “Miss Americana” (via Us Weekly). At one point she revealed, “I was falling in love with someone who had a wonderfully normal, balanced life. We decided together we wanted our relationship to be private.” Fortunately, this plan seems to be working for the couple, as they have been together for five-and-a-half years and counting. Coincidentally, this also seems to be Swift’s longest relationship to date.
