What We Know About Sarah Pidgeon & Joe Alwyn's Relationship

It appears there may be a new love story quietly unfolding in Brooklyn.

Fresh from the acclaim surrounding Ryan Murphy’s Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette, actress Sarah Pidgeon has been photographed engaging in some PDA with British actor Joe Alwyn, sparking speculation that the pair are dating. Photographs published by People show the actors together in Brooklyn on Saturday, appearing relaxed and affectionate during an afternoon stroll.

According to the publication, the sighting was not a one-off. Pidgeon and Alwyn were reportedly seen together multiple times in the borough throughout the previous week, suggesting that their connection may extend beyond a casual outing.

For their latest appearance, both sported denim and basics. Pidgeon, 29, paired some low-waisted bootcut jeans with a simple white tank top, while Alwyn, 35, opted for a black t-shirt and faded baggy jeans. At one point, Pidgeon was photographed with her arm around the actor and then kissing him in a restaurant.

If the rumours prove true, the relationship would mark Alwyn’s first publicly reported romance since his split from Taylor Swift in April 2023. The actor and pop superstar dated for more than six years, keeping much of their relationship out of the public eye despite intense interest.

Since their breakup, Alwyn has remained characteristically guarded when discussing his personal life. In a 2024 interview with The Times, he reflected on the challenges of navigating a highly scrutinised separation, describing the experience as having something “very real suddenly thrown into a very unreal space”.

He also reaffirmed his commitment to privacy, explaining that he and Swift, who is set to marry Travi Kelce this July, had mutually chosen to keep the details of their relationship private and that he saw no reason to change that approach.

Neither Alwyn nor Pidgeon has publicly commented on the dating speculation, but we’re expecting to see some future sightings.
