Taylor Swift 'wasn't happy' with Joe Alwyn 'like she used to be'

Taylor Swift’s relationship from her now-former boyfriend Joe Alwyn was seemingly very different from all her previous lovers.

Even after six years of dating, the former couple fiercely protected their relationship from the media however in a few instances where details of their relationship slipped up, Swift revealed that Alwyn was completely different as she gushed over him.

In her Netflix documentary Miss Americana, Swift said in 2020: "I was falling in love with someone who had a wonderfully normal, balanced life."

"We decided together we wanted our relationship to be private. I was happy. But I wasn’t happy in the way I was trained to be happy. It was happiness without anyone else’s input. We were just happy."

However all of  that has since come to a screeching halt after it emerged over the weekend that the pair had amicably split. 

Entertainment Tonight revealed that their split "was not dramatic".

The source elaborated that reasons for their relationship ending was because "the relationship had just run its course. It's why [Alwyn] hasn't been spotted at any shows."
