Matty Healy and Taylor Swift spotted smooching on double date, as fans say romance is 'confirmed'

Matty Healy was spotted 'kissing' rumoured love interest Taylor Swift during a romantic double date night in New York City last night, according to fans who shared images on social media.

The son of Denise Welch and Tim Healy was snapped enjoying a meal with the Bad Blood singer, as well as collaborator Jack Antonoff and his fiancee Margaret Qualley at the Big Apple's Casa Cipriani on the Financial District.

Matty, who is the lead vocalist for The 1975, was said to be snuggled up to Taylor by fans who shared the snaps online. One said that the two were sat next to each other, surrounded by security.

An eyewitness told Page Six that the rumoured couple were 'kissing and cuddling' while enjoying one another's company. Images captured show Matty and Taylor entering the bar while holding hands, Taylor sporting a yellow and green dress.

Matty on the other hand opted for a signature suit on the alleged date, complimented by a smart white shirt. It's also said that the pair of singers were covered by an umbrella to maintain privacy.

And as the photos emerged, a number of Swifties were quick to comment on the appearance - taking to social media with various reactions spanning shock, surprise, and elation. One wrote: "It’s official now and anyone that says otherwise is in denial," while a second, added: "I DIDNT EVEN REALIZE THEY WERE HOLDING HANDS… DELETE! DELETE! DELETE!"

A third, went on: "She could do so much better but if she likes him so be it," while a fourth, continued: "If shes happy im …happy."

A fifth, simply put it: "Cool."

Rumours that the two had began dating started circulating following Taylor's split from ex Joe Alwyn, earlier this year. The Blank Space singer had been dating the actor since 2016, reportedly walking away after six years through 'differences in their personalities', according to Glamour.

Just last week, rumours started circulating that the pair of musicians were dating, after a source close to Taylor told The Sun: "She and Matty are madly in love. It’s super-early days, but it feels right. They first dated, very briefly, almost ten years ago but timings just didn’t work out."
