Taylor Swift and The 1975's Matty Healy are 'madly in love': report
Taylor Swift’s new lover is reportedly The 1975 frontman Matty Healy.
Swift, 33, and Healy, 34, are allegedly “madly in love” with each other — so much so that they’re ready to go public at Swift’s upcoming Nashville tour stop, a source claiming to be close to the singer told The Sun on Wednesday.
The Post has contacted reps for Swift and Healy for comment.
“It’s super-early days, but it feels right. They first dated, very briefly, almost 10 years ago but timings just didn’t work out,” the source claimed.

In fact, Page Six once reported that The 1975’s 2016 song “A Change of Heart” may be about Swift.
This rumored new romance comes weeks after news of Swift and her boyfriend of six years, actor Joe Alwyn, 32, breaking up.
“Taylor and Joe actually split up back in February, so there was absolutely no crossover,” The Sun quoted its unidentified source.

The “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” songstress is traveling the US on her “Eras Tour” while The 1975 are in between legs of the “At Their Very Best” tour.
“Both Matty and Taylor have been touring over the past few weeks, so it’s been a lot of FaceTiming and texting but she cannot wait to see him again,” the source told The Sun.
“But as two international megastars, they understand the pressures of one another’s jobs better than anyone, and are incredibly supportive of their respective careers.”

Unlike Swift and Alwyn’s top-secret union — fans even thought they were married at one point — The Sun is reporting this relationship may unfold in the public eye.
The Sun’s source explained: “They are both massively proud and excited about this relationship and, unlike Taylor’s last one — which was very much kept out of the spotlight, deliberately — she wants to ‘own’ this romance, and not hide it away.”
“Taylor just wants to live her life and be happy. She’s told pals Matty is flying to Nashville over the weekend to support her on the next leg of her tour,” the source added.

Swift will perform in Nashville at Nissan Stadium from May 5-7.
Interestingly enough, Swift performed her song “Anti-Hero” live for the first time — as well as a cover of The 1975’s song “The City” — at the band’s London concert in January.
The “I’m in Love With You” singer, who has a tradition of kissing fans during the show, told the audience that he would not be smooching anyone in Swift’s presence.
“I’m not kissing anybody in front of Taylor Swift, have some respect,” Healy firmly stated. “In front of the Queen, it’s not happening.”
Swift even posed for a picture backstage with Healy’s mom, actress and “Loose Woman” panelist Denise Welch, 64.
Healy also claimed that The 1975 worked on Swift’s latest album “Midnights” — “but then [that] version of it never came out.”
The “Shake It Off” singer is no stranger to dating famous men, including Jake Gyllenhaal, Harry Styles, John Mayer, Calvin Harris, and Tom Hiddleston.

Healy dated pop star Halsey, now 28, in 2015. Fans believe the pair wrote several songs about each other, including Halsey’s “Colors” and The 1975’s “She’s American.”
He’s also been linked to FKA Twigs, as well as models Gemma Janes, and Gabriella Brooks.
