Calvin Harris might have been humiliated when Taylor Swift moved on from their romance so quickly, but the DJ has had the last laugh.
The 32-year-old looked dapper as he picked up the Patron Solo Artist Of The Year Award at the GQ Men of the Year Awards 2016 in London last night, as it was confirmed his ex had broken-up with Tom Hiddleston.
Calvin appeared to reference the split in his acceptance speech where he conceded to going through "a lot" this year.
"I'd like to dedicate this to my manager Mark Gillespie for being a fantastic man. We've been through a lot and discovered a lot this year," he told the star-studded audience at the Tate Modern where the ceremony was held.
Remembering where he started, he continued: "I feel at 32 I'm nearing the end. Just kidding.
"This week ten years ago was when I left Marks and Spencer Simply food in Clapham South where I carried out such tasks as date-rotating sandwiches and moving the salmon."
The DJ later shared his British GQ cover on Twitter and thanked the publication for the honour.
It was confirmed last night that Taylor had split from boyfriend of three months Tom Hiddleston, who she went public with just two weeks after her break-up with Calvin.
While sources told People magazine that "it was an amicable split" others claimed the singer was uncomfortable with their public romance.
It has been claimed that Taylor and Tom split over her refusal to join him on the red carpet at the Emmy TV awards.
The British hunk is currently in the running for Best Actor for his critically-acclaimed performance as Jonathan Pine in the BBC drama.
The ceremony is set to take place on September 18th in Los Angeles, three months after the pair were first spotted locking lips.
It has been claimed that Tom felt “humiliated” that Taylor wouldn't support him publicly at the bash by his side.
“He’s done his duty so he thought it was only fair she repays the favour herself and is by his side at the Emmys,” an insider told The Sun.
“He’s humiliated that she’s so against it and won’t put her tradition of avoiding red carpet events with boyfriends to one side for him on his big night.”
The singer and actor are said to have called it quits after a whirlwind romance as Taylor wasn't happy with Tom's desire to make their relationship so public.
A source told Us Weekly: "She was the one to put the brakes on the relationship. Tom wanted the relationship to be more public than she was comfortable with.
"Taylor knew the backlash that comes with public displays of affection but Tom didn't listen to her concerns when she brought them up."
The source added Tom was feeling "embarrassed" by the breakup.
Reports have been circulating for some time that all was not well between the pair, who haven't been pictured together since late July.
"Tom wants their relationship to be public, even asking Taylor to go to the Emmys with him, but Taylor wants to keep her private life private," a source toldDailymail.com.
They added: "Tom's need for their relationship to be so public so quickly makes her uncomfortable. She tried to be OK with it in the beginning but fears he is in love with the idea of her and not falling in love with her for the right reasons."
After spending weeks travelling the globe together, rumours first started that Hiddleswift had called it quits a few weeks ago.
While it's been said that Taylor didn't want their romance to be so public, it's also been claimed that Tom was the one left questioning their relationship.
“Tom can’t deal with being a laughing stock and has told Taylor he’s done unless there’s a 360-degree change on her part,” another source told Radar Online.
“It’s become a total charade and Tom is sick of being treated like a glorified escort.”
Tom, 35, literally wore his heart on his sleeve in a 'I heart T.S.' shirt during her Fourth of July celebrations.
“Tom is just done with it,” the insider told the website.
A source told People magazine: "It was an amicable split."
Taylor split from Scottish DJ Calvin Harris just weeks before striking up a romance with The Night Manager actor Tom.
