It Was Taylor Swift Who Left — Matty Healy Was Hurt, Not the Heartbreaker, Says Source

Taylor Swift and Matty Healy’s brief romance in 2023 made waves, sparked fan frenzies, and left the internet buzzing. But what really went down between the two remained a mystery for most. While the world moved on, whispers about their split never truly faded, and now a fresh claim has surfaced that dares to change everything the public thought about who walked away and who was left reeling. New revelations suggest the Taylor Swift–Matty Healy split was not as simple as it seemed.

One insider, in particular, hints that the ‘Lover’ hitmaker left the The 1975 frontman heartbroken, not the other way around.

A source unpacks a twist on the Taylor Swift and Matty Healy split saga

Matty Healy, according to a US Weekly source, was the one left heartbroken after his brief romance with Taylor Swift two summers ago, and “not the other way around,” despite the larger public perception. The revelation from the insider comes in light of Healy’s mother, Denise Welch, recently shading the Eras Tour performer on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, saying she does not regret losing the role of Swift’s potential mother-in-law. Commenting on Welch’s remark, the source said it was unfair for her “to have the most famous person in the world say your son broke her heart” when the case was the opposite.

The source further divulged that Denise Welch’s “mother-in-law” comment is because that is where Matty Healy thought his relationship with Taylor Swift was headed, hence making her “entitled to her opinion.” Notably, the British pop star is now engaged to be married, and his mother had extensive sweet things to say about her future daughter-in-law, Gabbriette Bechtel, on the same show where she criticized Swift. What does the world know about Bechtel, though?

Who is Matty Healy’s fiancée, Gabbriette Bechtel? Reports suggest she and the ‘About You’ crooner are more compatible than what meets the eye at first.

Everything to know about Gabbriette Bechtel

Denise Welch, on Andy Cohen Live, said Matty Healy has “moved on” from Taylor Swift as he is happily engaged to Gabbriette Bechtel, “who is gorgeous.” Healy’s lady, for those out of the loop, is a multihyphenate known for being not just a model but also an internet personality and a singer, with the latter trait tying her closely to Healy. Bechtel strikingly fronted Charli XCX’s punk pop band, Nasty Cherry.

Born in California with Mexican and Swiss-German heritage, Gabbriette Bechtel initially trained as a ballerina before transitioning into music, art, and high fashion, collaborating with brands like Diesel and Marc Jacobs along the way. Between Matty Healy’s deepening romance with Bechtel and a fresh insider account casting new light on his brief link-up with Taylor Swift, that earlier chapter of his life now seems firmly in the rearview — as long as the spotlight does not pull their names back together.
