Taylor Swift has a conspicuously open date on her Eras Tour: May 1 aka Met Gala day.
It could be a good opportunity for her to find her next boyfriend.
After all, the singer reportedly met her last two — British actor Tom Hiddleston, who she dated in the summer of 2016; and British actor Joe Alwyn, from whom she’s split after six years — at the 2016 Met Gala.
Fresh off the weekend news that she and Alwyn have broken up, a Swift source told Page Six: “I’m sure her friends will set her up with her next love.
“Taylor loves a London boy.”
Swift and Alywn kept their relationship private while living together in a sprawling $8.7 million house in a celebrity enclave in London.
Despite reports that the married while living there, sources have denied the rumor to Page Six.
The pair managed to keep out of the spotlight and were rarely photographed. But in 2021, they rented a four-story, six-bedroom house in Primrose Hill, only minutes away from Swift’s ex, Harry Styles.
They were last spotted in public in July, enjoying a sunny day in London, where they spent the pandemic together.
During lockdown, they were seen walking with actor Alwyn’s family — psychotherapist mom Elizabeth, documentary maker father Richard and the actor’s two older brothers, Patrick and Thomas — close to their large home overlooking Hampstead Heath.
“The family is very close and loved Taylor,” one family source told Page Six. “She was often at their family gatherings, but it did take a while for them to get used to her visits. She has round-the-clock security and every exit had to be checked due to her stalkers.”
A second source in the know added: “Taylor liked to keep everything low-key and normal and liked that they accepted her as one of their own.”
Swift and Alywyn reportedly met at the 2016 Met Gala, which she co-hosted.
The singer initially shared Alwyn’s apartment in Crouch End in North London, but they then moved on to Primrose Hill. The area, which surrounds Regents Park, was once the setting for the notorious Britpop-era “Primrose Hill set” — including Kate Moss, Sadie Frost, Jude Law and Oasis star Noel Gallagher — who were famous for their partying and bed-hopping.
But Swift was low-key and a regular at pubs including The Spaniard’s Inn in Hampstead, also a favorite of Styles.
She hosted friends including Zoe Kravitz during lockdown, when the actress was shooting “The Batman” in London.
“She was my [pandemic] pod,” Kravitz has said of Swift. “She was a very important part of being in London, just having a friend that I could see and that would make me home-cooked meals and dinner on my birthday.”
Swift is also close friends with “Girls” creator Lena Dunham and was a bridesmaid at her secret wedding to musician Luis Felber in London in September 2021.
In 2019, Swift invited fans to a different flat in London ahead of the release of her album, “Lover,” which includes the hit “London Boy”.
One fan reported at the time that Swift had Le Labo’s popular Santal 26 candles “everywhere” in her home, along with Jo Malone Pomegranate Noir soap in her bathroom, and a closet full of 40 board games and bowls full of custom M&M’s all around the house.
Swift also accompanied Alwyn on some of his film sets, making friends with the creatives around him.
When he was filming his TV show, “Conversations with Friends”, she travelled to Croatia with him and the rest of the crew. Alison Oliver, who played Joe’s on-screen lover, told London’s The Times newspaper the pop star was “totally cool” and understanding that sex scenes are “part of Joe’s job, all part of the story.”
The singer also joined the cast and crew on their wrap party in a cocktail bar called The Tipsy Bird in Belfast with staff later writing on Facebook: “We can confirm she is just as lovely as you would expect and was kind enough to take a picture with the team.”
Although the couple has now split, Swift — who’s currently on a huge tour — Page Six is told that the singer is looking for a home in North London to make her European base and add to her $80 million property portfolio,.
Aside from Styles, her past loves include Brit actor Hiddleston, DJ Calvin Harris, Conor Kennedy — the son of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. — Joe Jonas and Jake Gyllenhaal.
