‘Legend Says Her Breakup Song is Ready’: Netizens Brutally Troll Taylor Swift After Engagement Rumours With Joe Alwyn
“Ladies and gentlemen, will you please stand?
With every guitar string scar on my hand
I take this magnetic force of a man to be my lover.”
We might soon witness these Lover lyrics come true in real life as well, with the reports of Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn doing the rounds. Yes, the couple is reportedly engaged! It was The Sun, that first made the world privy to this insider information, on June 30. Apparently, the question has been popped and the ‘Paper Rings’ singer is now flaunting a diamond on her finger, but only behind closed doors.
No Vogue at the wedding for Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn
The source who shared the details is reportedly close to Joe Alwyn. They told The Sun:
“Taylor and Joe are incredibly happy, and very, very in love. They’ve actually been engaged for a few months but have only told their inner-inner circle — basically immediate family, and trusted, very old friends. Everyone has been sworn to secrecy, too.
Taylor has a beautiful ring but she only wears it when she’s at home — i.e. behind closed doors. Again, only a handful of people know details about the wedding and Taylor hasn’t even told some of her team about the engagement.
They want their love to stay away from the cameras as much as possible. This is just for them. And if and when they do exchange vows, there most definitely won’t be any Vogue, Rolling Stone or Hello! magazines there. It will be simple and elegant — like them.”
People across the Internet react
It seems that Taylor Swift’s reputation for writing songs about her breakups is not going to leave her behind any time soon. People across Twitter couldn’t help but mock the rumors of her engagement with Joe Alwyn.
Those song ideas must've been drying up.

A Hush Affair since the beginning
Taylor Swift is one celebrity who has always been in a separate limelight for her dating life and that is why when she got involved with The Sense of an Ending actor 5 years ago, she decided to keep it as private as possible. In 2020, Swift talked to Rolling Stone about her relationship with Joe Alwyn, “I think that in knowing him and being in the relationship I am in now, I have definitely made decisions that have made my life feel more like a real-life and less like just a storyline to be commented on in tabloids.”
Despite all the hush, Taylor did write two whole albums about her beau, with the second album Lover full of wedding metaphors. It was more than just a hint to her fans about how serious the couple was for each other.
Joe Alwyn addressed the engagement rumors as well while talking to The Wall Street Journal in April 2022: “If I had a pound for every time I think I’ve been told I’ve been engaged, then I’d have a lot of pound coins,” adding “I mean, the truth is, if the answer was yes, I wouldn’t say, and if the answer was no, I wouldn’t say.”
