Reports are swarming at the exciting news, that Taylor Swift and long time boyfriend Joe Alwyn, have finally become engaged!
It was claimed the actor popped the question months ago, but the two have “only told” their inner circle.
“Basically immediate family, and trusted, very old friends,” the source said. “Everyone has been sworn to secrecy, too.”
The informant further alleged that Swift only wears her “beautiful ring” in private.
“Again, only a handful of people know details about the wedding and Taylor hasn’t even told some of her team about the engagement,” the source continued.
“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 just like them.”
Back in April, Alwyn decided to talk about rumors circling around, that he had already proposed to Swift in an interview with WSJ Magazine.
“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,” he said at the time.
“I mean, the truth is, if the answer was yes, I wouldn’t say, and if the answer was no, I wouldn’t say.”
While Swift, 32, and Alwyn, 31, have remained notoriously private as a couple since they were first linked in 2017, this certainly isn’t the first time there have been reports of an engagement.
In January 2020, Swift herself added fuel to the rumor mill with what looked like a large diamond ring on her left ring finger in her Netflix documentary, “Miss Americana.”
“I’m aware people want to know about that side of things,” Alwyn told Vogue back in 2018. “I think we have been successfully very private and that has now sunk in for people … but I really prefer to talk about work.”
However, even though they remain private, Swift did bring Alwn into her work world. He helped co-write two tracks on her 2020 album “Folklore”, “Exile” and “Betty”, under the pseudonym William Bowery, and also contributed to the tunes “evermore” and “Champagne Problems” on “Folklore’s” sister album, “Evermore.”
In her acceptance speech at the 2021 Grammy Awards, Swift thanked Alwyn, saying, “Joe, who is the first person that I play every single song that I write,” before continuing, “And I had the best time writing songs with you in quarantine.”
In November 2020, Swift told no less an authority on the pressures of maintaining a life in the public eye than Paul McCartney that “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.”
Previously in the interview, she said, “I can’t control if there’s going to be a fake weird headline about us in the news tomorrow.”
