Meanwhile, Swift's The Eras Tour is in full swing. 

"Taylor and Joe are in totally different places in their lives right now," a source recently told ET. "It was more of Taylor's decision to break up, but both of them realized that they weren't completely right for one another. They had been together for such a long time and were spending so much time together, but their personalities were just too different. Joe is more introverted, shy and quiet." 

The former couple was together for six years before calling it quits in March. ET was first to confirm the news on Saturday, with a source telling ET that the split was amicable. 

"She's very focused on touring and her career right now," a source said. "Taylor has nothing but respect for Joe and really loved and enjoyed all the time and memories she shared with him. They had a deep connection and she really appreciated that. She hopes they can be friendly in the future."
