Who is Taylor Swift’s ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn?
FROM Harry Styles to Tom Hiddleston, Taylor Swift's love life has always been a hot topic of conversation.
But Swift and actor Joe Alwyn split after six years together, and she's since been spotted with a new man.
Who is Joe Alwyn?
Alwyn, 32, is a British actor who starred in the Oscar-winning film The Favourite, as well as the critically acclaimed The Sense of an Ending.
He was born in Crouch End, London on February 21, 1991, and graduated from the National Youth Theatre before studying at the University of Bristol and London's Royal Central School of Speech and Drama.
His big breakthrough came when he played the lead role in Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk in 2016.
Prior to his audition for the much-coveted part, the then-25-year-old had never even stepped in front of a camera.
Directed by double Oscar-winning director Ang Lee, the war film saw him star alongside Hollywood heavyweights Kristen Stewart, Vin Diesel, and Steve Martin.
The Sense of an Ending - released in 2017 - again saw the up-and-coming star rub shoulders with acting royalty, appearing opposite Jim Broadbent and Charlotte Rampling.
In 2018, the actor starred in The Favourite, featuring Oscar winners Emma Stone, Rachel Weisz, and Olivia Colman.
He also starred in Operation Finale, Boy Erased, Mary Queen of Scots, and Harriet.
Joe landed a lead role in the steamy Hulu series Conversations With Friends, which premiered in May 2022.
