Joe Alwyn is back in the celebrity news cycle, and this time it’s not about a breakup song. The actor was photographed Thursday night in New York City with comedian Mary Beth Barone, and the two reportedly walked across the Williamsburg Bridge and stopped into some local bars. Alwyn kept it simple in a black tee and loose jeans, while Barone wore a black minidress with blue boots.
The timing has everyone talking. Alwyn dated Taylor Swift from 2017 to 2023, and Swift recently married Travis Kelce at Madison Square Garden. Alwyn was also linked to actress Sarah Pidgeon earlier this summer, so this outing is a bit of a curveball for anyone following his dating life.
Barone brings her own headline-worthy history to the mix. The comedian has been open about her bisexuality and her dating experiences, and she previously dismissed rumors of a romance with Lucas Bravo as a PR relationship arranged by Netflix. Whether this is a new romance or just a friendly hang, one thing is clear: the internet is already invested. What do you think, is this a real connection or just two friends on a bridge?
