Taylor Swift was nominated for best pop vocal album at the 2019 Grammys but skipped the award show to support her boyfriend Joe Alwyn instead.

Alwyn’s film, “The Favourite,” was nominated for 12 awards at the British Academy Film Awards, also known as the BAFTAs, in the UK. The period film — which stars Olivia Colman, Rachel Weisz and Emma Stone — took home seven wins Sunday night.

Swift celebrated the victories on Instagram, writing, “AHHHHH @thefavouritemovie just won 7 @bafta awards !!! Bout to go give some high fives – thanks @stellamccartney for this dressss 😆.”

Meanwhile — in the US — Swift’s “Reputation” lost to Ariana Grande’s “Sweetener,” but the loss did not seem to faze Swift.

After the BAFTAs, the 29-year-old singer and Alwyn, 27, made a rare appearance at a British Vogue and Tiffany & Co. afterparty. They were seen holding hands as they walked out of Annabel’s Member’s Club in Mayfair.

Earlier that night, Alwyn walked the BAFTAs red carpet alone, which is customary for the couple. The pair has been notoriously private about their relationship since they began dating in 2016.

In September 2018, Alwyn told British Vogue, “I think we have been successfully very private, and that has now sunk in for people … but I really prefer to talk about work.”
