Fans wonder if Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn have been engaged in the 6 years they were dating. Here is everything we know. 

Joe Alwyn addressed the engagement rumors

Last year in an interview, Joe finally spoke out on the topic of his and Taylor’s engagement saying, “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. I mean, the truth is, if the answer was yes, I wouldn’t say, and if the answer was no, I wouldn’t say.” Taylor and Joe’s relationship has been very private over the years and the fans have gotten a glimpse inside it only through a few of Taylor’s songs. 

In another interview, Joe said,  “I’m aware people want to know about that side of things. I think we have been successfully very private and that has now sunk in for people … but I really prefer to talk about work.”
