Joe Alwyn failed to raise a smile as he was seen for the first time since his split from Taylor Swift was revealed.
The actor, 32, looked forlorn as he stepped out in London on Wednesday, keeping a low-profile as he navigated his way through the busy streets of the capital.
He has yet to speak out on the news that he and girlfriend of six years Joe had parted ways but was seen having an animated conversation on the phone.
Wrapped up against the chill, Joe donned a navy fleece jacket layered over a polo shirt and teamed with baggy jeans.
Joe completed the look with a pair of brown suede boots and clutched onto brown printed cardigan.

While Joe has been keeping a low-profile, Taylor has been performing on her Eras tour.
The singer, 33, took to the stage just days after it emerged they split, with many fans questioning how she was doing over recent weeks.
And during the concert, one attendee in the crowd held up a sign which read ‘Are you OK?’, which got into the Grammy Winner’s eyeline whilst she sang Delicate.
In the moment, which was captured on camera and shared by many guests, Taylor appeared to respond to the sign by holding a thumbs up in it’s direction.
Fans were overjoyed with the moment, as they sweetly shared that it was ‘what they needed’ to know she was doing alright.
Sharing the moment to social media, one attendee wrote over the clip: ‘I don’t I’ll ever get over the fact someone held up the sign “you ok” and Taylor responding with a 👍’.
Fans then united to share their joy that Taylor had confirmed how she was doing with the subtle moment.
‘This is so cute bc be honest we’re all a little worried. Our girl has a lot going on at the moment,’ one TikTok user commented.

Another wrote: ‘*Collective sigh from all swifties* we needed this! Thank you!’
‘Aw Taylor Swift saw the “you ok?” sign and she responded with a thumbs up. That’s kinda heartwarming given how painful that break up must’ve been’.
As she returned to the stage for the three shows in Tampa, Taylor also alluded to her split from Joe while on stage.
She took to the stage for nearly 70,000 fans, and didn’t hold back from referencing recent headlines surrounding her break-up, telling the crowd: ‘Is it just me or do we have a lot of things to catch up on?’
During her show, Taylor also cheekily played down the significance of her 2019 song Lover, which was said to be about Joe.
Preparing to perform the track, she told the crowd: ‘The song we are going to play next, it’s just a love song, you know?’
Taylor had previously made the same comment about the song at all of her tour shows, but this proved all the more significant after she and Joe ended their six-year romance.
It came days after DailyMail.com exclusively revealed that Taylor’s unparalleled starpower played a role in the end of her relationship with Joe.
A source close to the singer said: ‘The bottom line for the difficulties in their relationship was that Taylor’s career took priority over Joe’s – which can be awkward for a couple when it’s not balanced.
‘This drove them apart and ultimately, they both realized they were not on the same page anymore.’
The insider explained that ‘it’s been hard for Joe trying to make it in Hollywood and not quite becoming leading man material while dating one of the most famous women in the world over the last six years.
‘It was easier during the pandemic when it was just the two of them, but once things returned to normal, Taylor Swift the superstar emerged, and their differences were even more apparent.
‘They really made a go of it and tried everything they could but ultimately were unable to save the relationship,’ the source concluded.
News of the pair’s split broke over the weekend but a source told ET that Alwyn and Swift amicably parted ways ‘a few weeks ago.’
‘The relationship had just run its course,’ the insider added. ‘It’s why [Alwyn] hasn’t been spotted at any shows.’
