Joe Alwyn recently addressed his connection to The Black Dog pub in London, after Taylor Swift referenced it in her song “TTPD.” Alwyn denied ever visiting Vauxhall, where the pub is located, during an interview with the Sunday Times. Despite this, he mentioned enjoying activities such as seeing friends, traveling, and going to the pub in his downtime.
In “The Black Dog,” Swift sings about seeing an ex at the pub and the impact it had on her. The song has made The Black Dog a landmark for Swifties and the pub now sells merchandise inspired by the track. Alwyn, however, distanced himself from the pub, although reports suggest there may be more to his connection to the venue. The owner of The Black Dog, Lily Bottomley, hinted that a certain blonde frequents the establishment.
Alwyn and Swift dated from late 2016 to early 2023 and maintained a strong sense of privacy throughout their relationship. Alwyn broke his silence about their split during his interview with the Times and expressed the challenges of dealing with the end of a long, loving relationship in the public eye. He emphasized the difficulty of navigating such a situation, particularly with the added pressure of public scrutiny.
Despite their breakup, Alwyn did not reveal whether he and Swift are still in contact. Sources confirmed that their split was not dramatic and simply came to a natural conclusion. Alwyn chose not to comment on the specifics of their current relationship status, indicating his desire to keep those details private. The couple’s breakup was described as a matter of two people growing apart rather than any dramatic event leading to the split.
The relationship between Alwyn and Swift had been highly private, with both individuals opting not to share details about their personal lives with the public. Alwyn’s comments following the breakup echoed this sentiment, as he expressed a desire to maintain his privacy and not divulge information about his past relationship with Swift. Despite the public interest in their personal lives, Alwyn remained focused on protecting his privacy and keeping the details of their relationship to himself.
