SHOCKED by Joe Alwyn’s recent statement about Taylor Swift’s ‘lyrical attack’ on her new album

Taylor Swift may have accused ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn of shattering her dreams of marriage and children in stinging new lyrics on her album, The Tortured Poets Department – but the British actor will retain a modicum of silence, and has no plans to react, insiders claim.

Joe, 33, has never publicly discussed his split from the singer, 34, whom he dated for six years from 2017 until their breakup in April 2023.

But Taylor has seemingly bared her soul about the break down of their romance on her latest album – which dropped last Friday – with insiders claiming Joe has been left ‘disappointed’ and has banned any mention of the singer from the upcoming press tour for his new film, Kinds of Kindness.

‘There has been absolutely zero contact between them,’ a source exclusively told DailyMail.com ‘She did not run these songs by him, but he did not expect her to.

Joe Alwyn was not warned about the content of Taylor Swift’s new album, The Tortured Poets Departments, ahead of its release last Friday, according to sources

‘Joe has listened to the album, and he is slightly disappointed, but not surprised at all.

‘She didn’t really trash him or defame him. Joe is not going to react to this.’

Taylor, who is now dating NFL champ Travis Kelce, mostly retreated from the spotlight during her time with Joe, with the super private pair rarely pictured in public together.

They won a Grammy for Album of the Year in 2021 after Joe co-wrote and co-produced a number of tracks on her album Folklore under the pseudonym William Bowery.

They were also nominated for the same award a year later for Evermore.

The insider explained that Joe was more than aware of Taylor’s song-writing process thanks to the tracks they had created together.

‘Taylor draws on her relationships for almost all her songs and he admires her artistry,’ the insider added.

‘He has made a ton of money off the six songs that he wrote for Taylor in the past and he is grateful that their relationship also helped to make him a household name.’
