Joe Alwyn References Taylor Swift’s Obsession With Cats To Promote New Movie
Joe Alwyn has been silent on his April 2023 break-up from Taylor Swift, despite the speculation over what happened to end their six-year relationship, which has only been exacerbated by the release of Taylor’s latest album The Tortured Poets Society.
However, the actor seemed to make a subtle reference to his ex-girlfriend while promoting his new movie, as he shared an image of a cat, which some fans think is a nod to Taylor’s known affinity for felines.

Last week, Joe took to Instagram to offer a sneak peek into their forthcoming film, Kinds of Kindness, sharing a still from the production. In the movie, Alwyn stars with Taylor’s long-time friend, Emma Stone. Following this official reveal, Alwyn injected some humor into the mix by posting a parody photo featuring himself and Stone depicted as cats.
While the post seemed innocent enough, some fans wondered if it was his attempt at throwing shade towards Taylor, given that she’s known for loving cats.
There’s been speculation over how Taylor and Emma’s friendship has been impacted by her new project with Joe, if at all. Emma made it clear she has no ill will towards her co-star when she recently gushed over working with him, despite rumors that Joe cheated on Taylor, leading to their break up.
“I love Joe,” Emma said while promoting their film earlier this month. “We had to do some pretty dark stuff on this one, so it was extremely comforting to be with him because he’s one of the sweetest people you’ll ever meet.”
Emma and Joe have acted together before, having worked together on the film in 2018. Considering their shared industry, it’s not surprising that Stone and Alwyn would intersect professionally, and Swift may not feel any particular way about it. While Taylor hasn’t expressed any sentiments on the matter, Stone even made what appeared to be a nod to her on her new album, indicating that their friendship remains solid, despite the peculiar circumstance of Emma working with Taylor’s ex.
Why Joe Hasn’t Released A Statement About Their Break-Up
Though Joe may not be above throwing subtle digs at Taylor over social media, reports say the British native has no plans to formally comment on their past relationship, even though Taylor has left fans clues in her new music.
“Joe has not said one word about Taylor or their breakup and has been completely respectful of her,” a source told . “It’s undeniable that the name of her upcoming album is in reference to Joe’s WhatsApp group chat.”
“Regardless of what she does, he will still not respond because he has removed himself from her narrative and is very glad he did,” they went on.
For now, it appears Swifties will have to keep guessing over what really happened between Taylor and Joe.
