The thing about rumors is that they don't signify anything until they're officially confirmed or denied. Taylor Swift is well aware of this; she is the Queen of musical teases, and it appears that some of her evasiveness has rubbed off on her boyfriend, Mr. Joe Alwyn.

Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn, a British actor, have apparently been dating since 2016. Hello, and welcome to Earth. Joe, Swift's 31-year-old admirer, told the Wall Street Journal that he would "have a lot of pound coins" if he had a pound for every time he thinks he's been informed he's engaged. "I mean, the reality is, I wouldn't tell if the answer was yes, and I wouldn't say if the answer was no," Alwyn continues.
