Taylor Swift & Joe Alwyn Break Up After 6 Years Together

Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn have broken up, according to a new report from ET. The outlet says that the two called it quits several weeks ago at this point. The couple had been together for over six years.

ET also cites sources that say the split was amicable and “it was not dramatic.” They added that “the relationship had just run its course. It’s why [Alwyn] hasn’t been spotted at any shows.” As of last October, sources for the outlet reported that Swift and Alwyn were “doing great.”

Though the two mostly stayed quiet about their relationship, Swift recently discussed their dynamic in relation to her song, “Lavender Haze.” Speaking with ET, she confirmed she based the track on their romance. “I happened on the phrase ‘lavender haze’ when I was watching Mad Men, and I looked it up because I thought it sounded cool, and it turns out that it’s a common phrase used in the ’50s where they would just describe being in love,” she said at the time. “If you were in the lavender haze that meant you were in that all-encompassing love glow. I thought that was really beautiful.”

She further added: “I guess, theoretically, when you’re in the lavender haze you’ll do anything to stay there and not let people bring you down off of that cloud. I think a lot of people have to deal with this now, not just ‘public figures,’ because we live in the era of social media, and if the world finds out that you’re in love with somebody they’re going to weigh in on it. Like my relationship for six years, we’ve had to dodge weird rumors, tabloid stuff and we just ignore it. This song is sort of about the act of ignoring that stuff to protect the real stuff.” Swift is currently traveling the world on her The Eras tour. She will stop in Tampa, Florida, next week.

Mod will be performing tonight in Portland at The Hawthorne Theater,” they said. Lavigne has not commented on the rumors.

The couple’s relationship was recently the topic of a song on Mod’s latest album, God Save the Teen. The project released earlier this month. There’s a track titled “Avril’s Song” as well as a collaboration between the two on “Shelter.” Mod Sun recently spoke about his relationship with Avril Lavigne during an interview with E!

I’m with a real grown woman who has gone through it all 10 times over and she makes me a better person.”

Nia Long Speaks On Dating After Split From Ime Udoka

Moreover, this news comes after Udoka’s public cheating scandal, which exploded in September of 2022. The coach had a consensual but inappropriate relationship with a staffer for the Boston Celtics, and Long split with him months later. However, when she spoke to Barrymore, she shared that she’s got her “eye on one person.

“I’m not saying,” she joked. “I’m never telling.” Afterwards, the host shared that she enjoys the dating process. Then Nia admitted that she’s a bit anxious about the prospect. “You do? I’m so nervous,” she stated. “Are you on the dating apps? We gotta talk about this.”

Also, the 52-year-old said confirmed that she’s “so single” at the moment. Still, rumors recently spread of a potential romance between her and R&B singer Omarion. Moreover, The Shade Room shared a video of them on a red carpet where they took pictures together and Long grabbed his hand. “The smile on Omarion’s face says it all!” TSR captioned the post.

However, Nia Long even went to the lengths of commenting on that post to get her say in all the gossip. “Everybody simmer down…” she wrote. “I’m single AF.” With all these people breathing down her neck, she might relate to what she said about Will Smith carrying a burden.

“I will always love him,” she said to Yahoo. “He’s had an incredible career, and he’s carried a burden for many years to try — to represent what perfection looks like. Or what achievement looks like… I don’t think that — at least when we were growing up — there was room to be human. I think he’s now able to be human.

“We all have our moments in life where we need to reconcile things that we suppress,” she continued. “And I think — it’s hard growing up in this business and being front and center every day, all day. I’ve had some pretty devastating moments in my life over the last couple of months, and I’ve had to just say ‘It’s alright. You’ll pick yourself back up’ — oh, my God I’m about to cry. You pick yourself back up, and you keep it moving.”

Still, what do you think of Nia Long’s thoughts on dating after her split from Ime Udoka? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, check back in with HNHH for the latest pop culture gossip and relationship rumors.

Emily Ratajkowski Is Over Pete Davidson, Sources Say She’s “Single & Totally Happy”

Pete Davidson hasn’t been so lucky in love this year. After romancing two of the most lusted-after women on the planet, though, it’s likely he’ll have his pick of the litter once he starts planning his 2023 dates. As you’ll recall, he began 2022 in a relationship with Kim Kardashian. Once that came to an end, he and Emily Ratajkowski were making headlines together.

The model and comedian spent time together in New York last month. Aftward, gossip about their budding fling was in constant circulation. Eventually, the public even got a glimpse of them in real-time as they sat courtside at an NBA game.

Since then, however, things seem to have fallen apart as quickly as they came together. According to PEOPLE‘s source, “Em is single and totally happy.”

“She will always prioritize her son but enjoys dating when she has time. She enjoys her independence. [Emily] doesn’t have plans to see Pete again. She had fun with him, but she realized she didn’t want it to become anything else – she likes her life as it is,” they additionally explained.

While she has her little one to take care of, Davidson has wasted no time in attending sports games with a new woman.

Earlier in December, he and Bodies Bodies Bodies co-star Chase Sui Wonders were at a New York Rangers and Toronto Maple Leafs hockey game together. At the time, a source shut down dating rumours. They’re simply “great friends [who] hang out all the time,” though they’re “most definitely not an item.”

Ratajkowski was also spotted smooching another famous face recently. She and New York artist Jack Greer were caught kissing on their most recent outing.

Surprisingly, she discussed her dating life on her High Low podcast the next day, admitting to finally signing up for dating apps and experimenting with finding love in the digital world.

Listen to the full episode below, and let us know who you think Pete Davidson will date next in the comments.
