Joe Alwyn has 'moved on' from Taylor Swift and is 'dating and happy' amid Tortured Poets Department release: 'It just didn't work out'

As Taylor Swift revels in her new relationship and new musical era, her former flames are moving on too.

A source told People that the Grammy Award winner's ex Joe Alwyn is 'dating and happy' amid the release of her 11th studio album The Tortured Poets Department.

'He’s a great guy and not into drama in any way,' the insider said, noting that Alwyn, 33,  'moved on' from Swift, 34. 

After their 6-year relationship ended last year, the source said he 'certainly doesn’t talk poorly about her,' adding: 'He was in love with her, and it just didn’t work out.' 

Alwyn is 'doing well' and 'focused on work' as the source noted, 'Joe loves acting, but can't stand the attention that comes with it. He's not comfortable in the spotlight.'

Swift appeared to take aim at Alwyn on multiple tracks from TTPD, which left him 'slightly disappointed, but not surprised at all,' a source previously told DailyMail.com.

'There has been absolutely zero contact between them,' they said. 'She did not run these songs by him, but he did not expect her to.'

The source added: 'She didn’t really trash him or defame him. Joe is not going to react to this.'

Alwyn has since reportedly banned any questions about the album and his relationship with Swift from the upcoming press tour for his movie Kinds of Kindness. 

The British actor happens to co-star with Swift's pal Emma Stone in the Yorgos Lanthimos-helmed film. 

Swift dated Alwyn from 2017 to 2023, during which the 14-time Grammy winner mostly retreated from the spotlight.

They won a Grammy together for Album of the Year in 2021 after he co-wrote and co-produced several tracks on Folklore under the pseudonym William Bowery.

The pair was also nominated for the same award a year later for Evermore.

Meanwhile, the Boy Erased actor refused to publicly discuss their relationship.

After TTPD dropped this month, Swift shared a statement about letting go of the 'sensational and sorrowful' time that inspired the album

In 2022, Alwyn told Harper's Bazaar that he 'can understand' the interest in their relationship, 'but I don’t see why these questions should always be answered.'

'I completely expect people to ask those questions [about their, if I'm putting work into the world, of course people are going to ask about that,' he added.

After TTPD dropped this month, Swift shared a statement about letting go of the 'sensational and sorrowful' time that inspired the album.

'This period of the author's life is now over, the chapter closed and boarded up,' she wrote. 'There is nothing to avenge, no scores to settle once wounds have healed.

'And upon further reflection, a good number of them turned out to be self-inflicted,' added Swift.

'This writer is of the firm belief that our tears become holy in the form of ink on a page. Once we have spoken our saddest story, we can be free of it. And then all that's left behind is the tortured poetry.'

The Tortured Poets Department is now available for streaming and download.
