Taylor Swift’s ex-boyfriend of six and a half years was spotted stepping out with “Love Story” star Sarah Pidgeon in New York City.
Pidgeon — who played style icon Carolyn Bessette Kennedy in the recent hit FX series — was “allegedly spotted in Fort Greene [Brooklyn] last night [Wednesday]” with the “Hamnet” actor, according to Deuxmoi.
However, the gossip blog’s post noted, “When Sarah was spotted with Jake Gyllenhaal it was later learned they were about to film a project together 👀.”
Reps for Alwyn and Pidgeon did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment Friday evening.
Fans couldn’t help but sound off in the comments section, where one person quipped, “We about to get an album from Taylor.”
Another wrote that Alwyn and Pidgeon would “be gorgeous together 😍,” while a third chimed in, “Obsessed with Taylor. But this works. Good for them.”
The report comes as anticipation builds for the “Opalite” hitmaker’s wedding to Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce — which sources recently dished to Page Six will be held at Madison Square Garden over the July 3 weekend.
Alwyn, 35, and Swift, 36, dated from the fall of 2016 until their split in the spring of 2023, amid the launch of the pop star’s epic Eras Tour. An insider told Page Six at the time the breakup “wasn’t dramatic” and said the romance “just ran its course.”
Following the split, Swifties speculated that some of her “Tortured Poets Department” hits — specifically “Loml,” “So Long, London” and “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” — contained references to the defunct romance.
Alwyn, meanwhile, addressed the breakup in a June 2024 interview with the London Times.
“I would hope that anyone and everyone can empathise and understand the difficulties that come with the end of a long, loving, fully committed relationship of over six and a half years. That is a hard thing to navigate,” he explained to the outlet.
The actor shared that the split was “unusual and abnormal” because it landed “suddenly in the public domain and the outside world is able to weigh in.”
“So you have something very real suddenly thrown into a very unreal space: tabloids, social media, press, where it is then dissected, speculated on, pulled out of shape beyond recognition,” he shared.
He added: “And the truth is, to that last point, there is always going to be a gap between what is known and what is said. I have made my peace with that.”
Pidgeon, 29, has never confirmed a relationship and fiercely protects her private life, though she was previously linked to Spacey Jane frontman Caleb Harper after starring alongside Harper in the band’s “It’s Been a Long Day” music video in 2022.
Her onscreen and red carpet chemistry with “Love Story” co-star Paul Anthony Kelly also raised dating speculation among fans, but he’s been married to wife Syd Widziszewski since 2023.
Though she sparked rumors of a potential romance with Jake Gyllenhaal, 45, after being spotted grabbing coffee in New York earlier this year, it turned out the pair are co-starring in upcoming dramedy film “Honeymoon with Harry” together.
