It would seem that Alwyn's career is on the rise especially now that he has been linked to the darling of the music industry, Taylor Swift. The two have been reportedly dating for eight months now but it was only recently that their relationship was revealed. It appears that T-Swift has learned a lot from her previous relationships, having decided to keep her Alwyn to herself.
Just recently, Swift was spotted looking for potential houses in London, where Alwyn happens to live. If the "Shake It Off" singer will indeed move to London, this wouldn't be the first time that she will buy a house just to be closer to a boyfriend. Swift had previously bought a $4.9 million house near her ex-boyfriend Conor Kennedy's home in Cape Cod.
It would indeed be more convenient for Swift to purchase a house near her boyfriend since she was previously reported to have been renting a property during her many visits to London. It also looks like the couple is indeed serious about each other and Swift's house hunting is a sign that the couple is ready to take the next step.
