The 1975's Matty Healy: parents, age, and dating history

Here's everything you need to know about The 1975's frontman Matty Healy.

Matty Healy is rumoured to be dating pop star Taylor Swift, who recently broke-up with her long-term boyfriend Joe Alwyn. Taylor, who is notoriously secretive about her personal life and dating, had been romantically linked to Formula 1 driver Fernando Alonso last month, but hasn't confirmed anything herself about a romance with long-term friend Matty.

The pair have already performed together, as Taylor Swift shocked fans at a The 1975 gig at London's O2 back in January when she came on stage and performed her song Anti-Hero live for the first time. The 1975 are currently on their world tour, while Taylor Swift is travelling across the USA on her Eras Tour.
