Following Taylor Swift’s breakup with long-term boyfriend Joe Alwyn was confirmed, it took just a matter of days for new dating rumours to begin – the latest being the 1975 frontman, Matty Healy.
Last month, it was confirmed that Swift and her actor boyfriend Alwyn had parted ways after six years together.
Since then, rumours about her dating Formula One driver Fernando Alonso began to swirl, only to now be replaced by rumours that she and fellow singer Matty Healy are together.

The pair are known to have been friends for years, but reports claim the couple are very much in love and “ready to go public with their romance”, despite both currently touring on different continents.
Fans, on the other hand, seem entirely unconvinced by the rumours and took to social media to share their thoughts via some hilarious memes.
