Joe Alwyn’s Reaction to ‘The Tortured Poets Department,’ You Ask?

The Tortured Poets Department has arrived, and as expected, “So Long London” appears to very much be about Taylor Swift’s relationship with Joe Alwyn ending. (Although, for what it’s worth, most of the album is very Matty Healy–centric...surprise!)

So what does Joe think of the album? His reaction to “So Long London” is TBD at this point, but a source previously told the Daily Mail that he’s less than thrilled.

Anonymous sources, tortured man clubs, cheating rumors—it's all just a lot.

“Joe has not said one word about Taylor or their breakup and has been completely respectful of her,” the insider said. “It’s undeniable that the name of her upcoming album is in reference to Joe’s WhatsApp group chat. Taylor knocked him for the name of this when they were together. She didn’t want people to think that it had anything to do with her, so when he spoke out about it, she was, of course, bothered. Joe has no reason to believe yet that she is going to dis him or their relationship. She writes about her past using code and points of reference. It may just be that she is reflecting on their time together and he is hoping it is nothing more.”

The source also added, “If it is a dis album, that is shady. He helped her with songwriting on her past album so it will really come as a shock to him if she talks about their breakup, as it is something he has not spoken of at all. Regardless of what she does, he will still not respond because he has removed himself from her narrative and is very glad he did.”

Tortured Poets didn’t turn out to be a diss album (at least not about Joe 😅), so gonna assume he won’t be giving a statement. But...stay tuned?
