Taylor Swift & Joe Alwyn Took a Romantic Stroll Through Paris & You Can’t Spell Romance Without ‘ME!’

Romance is in the air!

Taylor Swift and British actor boyfriend Joe Alwyn were spotted in Paris, France on Friday, as the couple held hands while taking a romantic stroll and enjoying the sunny spring weather.

Onlookers spotted the celebrity couple enjoying breakfast at the iconic Café de Flore and strolling the romantic Parisian streets on Friday morning. Swift and Alwyn kept their romantic outing casual in baseball caps, sunglasses and sneakers.

“On Friday morning they had a leisurely breakfast at Café de Flore. They sat inside and sipped on coffees. They seemed very comfortable together, just talking and people watching,” a source told E! News.

After coffee, the pair “walked around the streets of Beaubourg [and] held hands and stopped to have some water,” the insider added.

While enjoying Paris and the sites, the insider shared that Swift and Alwyn “enjoyed a nice walk on a crowded street where they could mix-in with the locals and not be bothered. They were then picked up by a car and taken back to their hotel.”

The couple’s time in the City of Love comes at a very busy time for Swift, who has had several work commitments across the Atlantic ocean as well.

In addition to spending the weekend in Paris with her beau, Swift appeared on Friday’s episode of The Graham Norton Show, where she performed her latest single, ME!, and joined in on the interview with the cast of Dark Phoenix, PEOPLE reports.

“Feeling pretty lucky that I got to be a guest on the same night as @sophiet, Michael Fassbender, @Jessicachastainand @Jamesmcavoyrealdeal- They were all so sweet, now I want to just walk around yelling GO SEE DARK PHOENIX,” the pop singer shared in an Instagram post.

Swift was also scheduled to perform on France’s version of The Voice.

Swift and Alwyn, who went public with their relationship in May 2017, have mainly kept their romance private, with few public appearances.

Alwyn, who starred in last year’s Oscar-nominated The Favourite, told Total Film last September, “I understand people’s curiosity in the world we live in, about people’s private lives. Well, I don’t understand it, but I know it exists. For me, I just don’t feel it’s something I want to offer up to be picked apart by people who don’t know about it, and it’s just not theirs to have.”

But keeping their relationship private seems to really be working for the couple, and we hope they enjoy their romantic weekend together!
