Joe Alwyn revealed that he tries to ignore the noise surrounding his past relationship with pop singer Taylor Swift.

Joe Alwyn just shared about his 6-year relationship with singer Lover. The actor admitted he was never worried that his relationship with Taylor Swift would overshadow his career.

“I try to just focus on controlling what I can control,” he told The Guardian in an interview published on January 5.

Alwyn (33 years old) added: “From the beginning, I tried to focus on things that were meaningful to me: friends, family, work. So, as for outside noise, I think I did what many people do when they are in the public spotlight, which is try to ignore it. If you don’t and let all the other things in, it will start to affect you and your behavior. And then, you will be in trouble big”.
