Ever wonder if fame and “normalcy” can actually coexist, or if they’re destined to tango awkwardly like Mercury in retrograde crashing a Venus party? Well, that’s the vibe swirling around Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn’s low-key romance kickoff back in 2016. Joe—let’s be honest—wasn’t exactly a household name then, more the quiet type who kept the drama outta sight while Taylor’s orbit expanded like a supernova. She’s openly admitted his down-to-earth groove reshaped how she grapples with the spotlight—privacy, peace, and that elusive “normal” life they both chased like it was an endangered species. But as with all cosmic nudges, their six-year chapter closed in April 2023, making way for Taylor’s spotlight to shine brighter (and noisier) alongside NFL’s Travis Kelce—and Joe, well, he’s stepped into his own greater fame too. So what’s the secret sauce—can you really balance being “normal” when your stars keep pulling you into the limelight? Let’s unravel that constellation of questions right here. LEARN MORE.
OK, this is more of a bonus mention, because whether or not Joe Alwyn was a normie when he and Taylor started dating in 2016 is up for debate. However, it’s certainly fair to say that he wasn’t that famous at the time. During the six-year relationship, Taylor talked (and sang) openly about how Joe’s “normal way of living” helped her change her viewpoint on fame. “The idea of privacy feels so strange to try to explain, but it’s really just trying to find bits of normalcy. That’s what that song ‘Peace’ is taking about. Like, would it be enough if I could never fully achieve the normalcy that we both crave?” she told Rolling Stone in 2020.
As we now know, Taylor and Joe’s “normal” way of life eventually stopped cutting it and the couple split in April 2023. Today, she’s in a comparatively far more public relationship with NFL star Travis Kelce, and Joe is certainly more famous than he was a decade ago.
