Joe Alwyn was photographed kissing and hugging Sarah Pidgeon during a Saturday outing in Brooklyn, a set of exclusive images showing the pair together from daylight into the evening. Pidgeon wore a white tank top, jeans and black ballet flats; Alwyn kept it casual in a black T‑shirt, jeans and black sneakers.
The photos show a date that lasted several hours and, by the sequence of images, moved from day into night. The outing is reported as the couple’s second public sighting; they were allegedly seen in Fort Greene on Wednesday night before reappearing across Brooklyn on Saturday.
For Alwyn, the Brooklyn pictures land against the backdrop of a very public chapter. He dated Taylor Swift for nearly seven years, beginning in the fall of 2016 and ending in the spring of 2023. In a June 2024 interview with the London Times he spoke plainly about that breakup, saying, "I would hope that anyone and everyone can empathize and understand the difficulties that come with the end of a long, loving, fully committed relationship of over six and a half years," and adding that the end of the relationship had been "dissected, speculated on, pulled out of shape beyond recognition."
Those comments matter here because they underline how Alwyn has described long-term relationships being exposed to intense public scrutiny — and because the new pictures are the clearest public evidence to date of his being seen with another well-known actor. The Brooklyn images are the strongest, dateable development so far: a daytime-to-night sequence, multiple hours together and visible affection in public.
Still, the photographs leave an obvious gap. Sarah Pidgeon has never confirmed any romantic relationship, and nothing in the images constitutes an official statement from either person about their status. The pictures document a warm, public interaction — kissing and hugging over several hours — but do not include comment, caption or a verbal confirmation that would change the interaction into a declared relationship.
That gap is the story’s friction: Alwyn has publicly described how ordinary moments between people can be reframed by tabloids, social media and press until they feel "unusual and abnormal," and the new Brooklyn photos fit that pattern. They present a simple, observable outing; how it will be interpreted rests on choices the two actors make next: to speak, to appear together again, or to remain private.
There is no official confirmation at this stage. The Saturday Brooklyn pictures are the most concrete, dateable evidence that the two have been spending time together, and they follow an earlier alleged sighting in Fort Greene on Wednesday. If either party issues a statement or they are photographed together again in public, that would materially change what can be reported; until then, the relationship remains unconfirmed and the photos stand as the clearest public record of their reported second outing.
