Taylor Swift and beau Joe Alwyn are ‘renting a £5.5million home in London where they’ve spent most of lockdown together’

Taylor Swift and her beau of four years Joe Alwyn are reportedly renting a £5.5million home in London together.

The singer, 30, and English actor, 29, are thought to have decided to stay in the UK’s capital during lockdown as the Fearless hitmaker ‘doesn’t think jetting around is the right thing to be doing’ amid the pandemic.  

According to The Sun, the very private couple are renting the pad in north London from a famous British rock star.

A source told the publication: ‘They keep things extremely quiet together… but the fact they’ve decided to share a home for the first time is a pretty clear sign that they’re the real deal now.

‘They’ve been there for most of lockdown. Taylor doesn’t think jetting around the world is the right thing to be doing. 

‘She wants to stick to the rules, and doing that together just made sense for them.’

The source added that the couple’s London pad isn’t permanent as she’s still got homes in America, but that being in the UK ‘works for now’. 

MailOnline has contacted Joe and Taylor’s representatives for a comment.
