So it’s odd that, since Taylor Swift’s reported split with British actor Joe Alwyn hit the headlines early on Sunday morning, I’ve found it hard to go about my business as normal. Showering this morning, I was momentarily winded as Swift’s recent album track, “Paris” – an unabashedly romantic number about the freedom and intimacy of life with Alwyn – shuffled onto Spotify. She was spotted three blocks away from Cornelia Street, the road she once vowed she’d “never walk again” if she ever lost Alwyn, in a track of the same name. From the first flickers of lust in the Reputation era, to the assured commitment of 2019’s “Lover” and the reflections of Folklore Swift’s past three albums seemed bursting with gratitude and optimism about the resilience and future of her relationship.
