LOS ANGELES, CALIFRONIA: Although Taylor Swift is "mourning the end" of her six-year relationship with actor Joe Alwyn, reports have uncovered that the hopeless romantic still has faith in the power of love to bring people together. She had already been associated with British musician Matty Healy, in fact. Following the breakup, an insider said, "Taylor will never give up on love." They added, "That is something that will never change."

Fans of Swift were shocked by the breakup because she and Alwyn had primarily kept their relationship private, but engagement rumors and claims that they had secretly wed had recently gained momentum. But according to the source, "Taylor and Joe would butt heads," noting that the couple often fought over where to put down roots (they split their time between his native London and her Nashville mansion," as reported by Radar Online.

'Joe is very shy and never liked all of the attention'

According to reports, Alwyn struggled to adjust to Swift's enormous success. "Joe is very shy and never liked all of the attention that came with dating one of the most popular singers in the world. It wasn't Taylor's fault; he never blamed her," a source said last month. He simply disliked having to be "on" constantly. According to our source, the couple "couldn't see eye to eye on the big things, and they eventually grew apart," as per reports. Even though she has already moved on with The 1975 frontman Healy, it has only been a few weeks since she broke her romance with Alwyn, and there is "no bad blood" between the two.

'Taylor hasn't given up on finding the right person'

According to rumors, the couple will make their covert relationship public this weekend in Nashville. The source said, "Taylor hasn't given up on finding the right person," adding, "it's a little early to be jumping back into the dating scene" — but that's not unusual for Swift.

Swift "tries not to think too far ahead," according to the insider. They added, "But it's fair to say that in five years, she'd love to be married and a mom." We've heard Healy might be the one for Swift to go past her heartbreak following Alwyn. A third insider stated, "Taylor truly believes that whatever is meant to be will be. And she knows everything happens for a reason," a third source shared, with another pal revealing, "Taylor is excited for the future and feeling very optimistic about what's ahead," as per reports.
