Nonetheless, others felt this was Swift's subtle response to Alwyn's current interview with The Sunday Times, which was printed on the identical day as her ultimate Liverpool efficiency. “And suddenly the murder mashup makes sense now,” one fan wrote, including, “Good for her.” One other mentioned the timing of her efficiency is “funny” no matter Swift's intention.
In the course of the interview, Alwyn described their former relationship as “loving” and “fully committed,” which could possibly be interpreted as a refined response to these aforementioned infidelity theories. In any other case, Alwyn didn't reveal any private particulars concerning the break up and declined to reply if he is listed to The Tortured Poets Department.
“I would hope that anyone and everyone can empathize and understand the difficulties that come with the end of a long, loving, fully committed relationship of over six and a half years," he said. "That is a hard thing to navigate. What is unusual and abnormal in this situation is that, one week later, it’s suddenly in the public domain and the outside world is able to weigh in.”
He continued, "So you've gotten one thing very actual out of the blue thrown into a really unreal area: tabloids, social media, press, the place it's then dissected, speculated on, pulled out of form past recognition. And the reality is, to that final level, there may be at all times going to be a spot between what is thought and what's mentioned. I've made my peace with that.”
Nevertheless, Alwyn did take a chance to deny visiting the London pub referenced in Swift's Tortured Poets observe “The Black Dog.” Now, if she selected to play that tune final night time, Swifties actually would have had one thing to speak about. Alas, this “murder mashup” connection appears like one other fairly huge stretch.
