Joe Alwyn won’t reportedly reach out to ex Taylor Swift after her engagement to Travis Kelce but wishes her well, saying it’s time to move forward.

Joe Alwyn keeps a low profile in London as ex Taylor Swift celebrates her engagement.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s engagement has become the biggest pop culture headline of the week, but fans have been equally curious about how her former partner Joe Alwyn feels about the news. According to fresh reports, the British actor has no intention of reaching out but harbours no ill will toward the global superstar.
Joe Alwyn Won’t Reach Out To Swift After Engagement
A source told the Daily Mail that Joe Alwyn, 34, “has not reached out, nor will he” to congratulate his ex-girlfriend following her surprise engagement to NFL star Travis Kelce. The insider added that Alwyn “genuinely hopes she is in a good place and doing well,” but emphasised that the actor sees no need for contact, believing Swift herself “wouldn’t want to hear from him anyway.”
The source further noted that Kelce’s romantic proposal served as “the final nail in the coffin to any thoughts” Alwyn may have had about their long-ended relationship. Reports suggest that he “doesn’t think about her anymore on any consistent basis,” choosing instead to prioritise his career and personal life away from the public frenzy surrounding Swift.
Alwyn’s Life Post-Swift And His Take On The Breakup
Swift and Alwyn began dating in late 2016 and spent six years together before quietly splitting in 2023. While the singer briefly dated The 1975’s Matty Healy before finding lasting love with Kelce, Alwyn has remained focused on work and maintaining a low-profile life in London.
The Conversations With Friends star previously addressed his breakup in an interview with The Guardian, urging fans and media alike to move on. “I have tried just to focus on controlling what I can control,” Alwyn said earlier this year. “And, right from the beginning, tried to focus on the things that are meaningful for me: friends, family, work, of course.”
Just a day before Swift and Kelce made their first public appearance as an engaged couple, Alwyn was photographed in London looking casual in a striped sweater and jeans. While he may not be weighing in directly on Swift’s love story, the actor’s silence reflects his preference for privacy.
Swift And Kelce Begin Their Next Chapter
Kelce proposed earlier this week in a stunning garden setting, with the couple sharing their engagement pictures on Instagram. Their playful caption, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married 🧨,” quickly went viral. The pair then stepped out as fiancés at a University of Nebraska vs. University of Cincinnati football game at Arrowhead Stadium, delighting fans.
