Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston split after three month romance

Tom Hiddleston and Taylor Swift have split after a whirlwind three-month romance.

The break-up comes amid reports that Taylor was "uncomfortable" with Tom's desire to be "so public" with their romance.

“She was the one to put the brakes on the relationship,” a source close to the couple told US Weekly.

On Monday, the Daily Mail reported that Taylor was not happy at Tom's wish to walk the red carpet together at the Emmy Awards on 18 September as she wants to protect her privacy.

Tom and Taylor met at the 2016 Met Gala in New York in May this year where they were filmed dancing together.

They were first spotted together as a couple in June when they were pictured kissing on a beach on Rhode Island.
