The Eras Tour: Taylor Swift hints at Joe Alwyn breakup with setlist change

Taylor Swift, who is known for dropping easter eggs, has seemingly hinted at her breakup with Joe Alwyn a week before the world knew.

The 33-year-old, who is currently on her Eras Tour, had alluded to her status as a single woman when she replaced her song Invisible String, a love letter to her former beau, with The 1 in her setlist in her March 31 tour show in Arlington, Texas.

This did not go unnoticed after eagle-eyed fans put two and two together to conclude that Taylor was indeed directing her fans towards her split.

"Realising why Taylor switched out invisible string for the 1," one fan captioned a TikTok video where she was crying to the lyrics, "It would’ve been fun if you would’ve been the one."

"This was not the Easter egg I was hoping for this weekend," another wrote which was accompanied by a caption that read, "changing invisible string to the 1 may have been more intentional then [sic] we thought but i also refuse to believe its [sic] true."

A third person wrote, "Realising the breakup might be why Taylor switched the setlist from invisible string to the 1."
