Taylor Swift’s new love interest after her breakup with Joe Alwyn is actually someone from her past. In December 2014, Swift was romantically linked to Matty Healy, the lead singer of the band The 1975. Although neither Swift nor Healy confirmed the recent rumors about their relationship, they were spotted holding hands and kissing in New York City on May 11.
Their connection dates back to November 2014 when Healy and Swift met backstage at one of his concerts in Los Angeles. Swift attended the show with Ellie Goulding and Selena Gomez, and the host of an Australian radio program suggested that Healy and Swift would make a great celebrity couple. Healy jokingly replied that he wouldn’t say no to dating Taylor Swift.

Around the same time, Swift was also rumored to be involved with Harry Styles, with speculation arising from their friendly reunion at The 1975’s show. However, it was later clarified that Styles was not present at the concert. In December 2014, Swift attended another concert by The 1975 in New York City, accompanied by Karlie Kloss. Us Weekly reported that Swift and Healy were secretly dating, with Healy pursuing her and frequently texting her.
In January 2015, Healy denied the dating rumors, stating that their alleged two-month relationship was fake. He emphasized that they had exchanged numbers like many people in the entertainment industry but there was no actual relationship between them. Healy expressed his admiration for Swift and debunked the idea of dating her, stating that it would be “emasculating.”
Despite these denials, their paths crossed again in February 2015 at Universal Music’s Brits party, where they were photographed together alongside Nick Grimshaw and Ellie Goulding. Healy maintained that their dynamic was merely a flirtation and Swift had no significant impact on his life.
