TAYLOR Swift and Matty Healy’s secret romance was a twist no one saw coming.
That’s apart from the pop stars’ most loyal and eagle-eyed fans who have already been speculating the US singer is seeing 1975’s Matty.

It comes a month after it was revealed US singer-songwriter Taylor, 33, had split from actor Joe Alwyn, 32, after six years.
Her famous British exes include Joe, Harry Styles, Calvin Harris and Tom Hiddleston.
But Taylor first dated Matty, 34, ten years ago – and have rekindled their romance since her split from her rumoured fiancé Joe in February.
Here we take a look at the clues pointing to their secret romance.

Surprise gig appearance
In January — before they got together — Taylor made a surprise appearance on stage at London’s O2 on the first night of The 1975’s sell-out At Their Very Best tour.
She performed two tracks, The City and Anti-Hero, during which Matty referred to her as “the Queen”.
Meeting Matty’s mum
Taylor was pictured backstage with Matty’s mum, ex-Corrie actress Denise, 64.
The Loose Women star beamed as she cuddled up with the American superstar – which sent fans into social media meltdown.
One said: “Denise Welch becoming Taylor Swift’s mother in law is the plot twist 2023 was waiting for.”

Hints in interviews
Just as Taylor famously leaves “Easter eggs” — secret clues to her fans — in her content, so Matty, too, appears to have hinted at their blossoming relationship.
Last month the Sex singer appeared to reference Taylor’s own hugely successful tour, Eras, when discussing his decision to quit all social media.
Matty, whose dad is Benidorm actor Tim Healy, 71, explained:
“Everything happens in eras.
“The 1975 is a very eras band. The era of me being a f***ing a**hole is coming to an end.”
In 2014, when Taylor and Matty first briefly dated, the singer was spotted wearing a 1975 T-shirt during one of their gigs, and was seen singing along to The City.
Last November Matty, a four-time Brit winner, confirmed his band had collaborated with Taylor on her album Midnights. However, their work never made the final cut.
Split leaked on his birthday
Details of her split from her rumoured fiancé Joe were then conveniently leaked on April 8 — Matty’s 34th birthday — which fans believed was Taylor’s “gift” to her new boyfriend.
Matty split from singer-songwriter FKA Twigs, 35, after three years last June. In December he was linked to Canadian model Charlotte Briar d’Alessio, 24.
