Are Matty Healy and Taylor Swift Dating? The Truth Revealed at Big Weekend!
Matty Healy, the frontman of The 1975, has sparked rumors about his reported relationship with pop star Taylor Swift while performing on stage over the weekend. During his headlining set at BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Dundee, Healy, 34, addressed the speculation around his and Swift’s rumored relationship, hinting at whether it is genuine or just for show.
Healy, who has been seen at several of Swift’s concerts recently, including spending time with her father in Philadelphia, has fueled the speculation even further by appearing on stage with Phoebe Bridgers, who is opening for Swift on tour. Photos of the two spending time together in New York City have also surfaced, following Swift’s reported breakup with her long-term boyfriend, Joe Alwyn.
However, Healy’s controversial past remarks have caused a divide among Swift’s fans regarding the rumored relationship. In particular, fans have criticized Healy for his comments on a podcast where he mocked Japanese, Hawaiian, and Scottish people, as well as making derogatory comments about women.
Healy addressed the controversy during a concert in New Zealand, apologizing to Ice Spice, a US rapper he collaborated with Swift on a new version of her song “Karma.” He expressed regret over his past comments and clarified that he did not want Ice Spice to think poorly of him.
In a previous interview, Healy had also made disparaging comments about Swift, stating that the idea of being in a relationship with her was “emasculating.” The ongoing speculation about their relationship has left fans and the media curious, with neither Healy nor Swift publicly addressing the rumors.
The Independent has reached out to representatives for both Healy and Swift for comment on the matter, but as of now, the nature of their relationship remains uncertain. Stay tuned for more updates on this intriguing story unfolding in the world of music and celebrity gossip.
