Taylor Swift and Matty Healy's split isn't 'complicated' as real reason revealed

Taylor Swift and Matty Healy 's short-lived romance has set the rumour mill into overdrive.

But now The Mirror can exclusively reveal that there's nothing "complicated" behind the break up.

Sadly life has just got in the way for the musicians who looked like love's young dream just weeks ago.

It had been reported the English frontman of The 1975 and the American musician had even planned to move in together as their romance flourished despite their busy schedules.

Taylor is currently in the middle of her five-month Eras Tour around the world while Matty will be touring with The 1975 until September.

Now a source tells The Mirror that Matty and Taylor "still care" for eachother but they are both "incredibly busy" in the middle of world tours.

"They have been friends for years and are still friends," the source added.

"Nothing complicated happened. It’s just life."

TMZ were the first to report that Taylor and Matt had called it quits on their short-lived romance, while a source told Entertainment Tonight that the duo are "extremely busy" and ultimately "realised they're not really compatible".

The couple were reportedly an item after they were spotted together on multiple occasions following Taylor's split from former long-term boyfriend, Joe Alwyn.

"Taylor's friends want what's best for her and aren't shocked that their relationship fizzled out since she recently got out of a long-term relationship," the source added.

PR expert Kieran Elsby told us that their split was merely a "matter of when" as he claims the Blank Space singer is planning to "move away from Matt's controversy."

News of Matty and Taylor's relationship first started just weeks after her split from Joe Alwyn, who she was with for six years.

Kieran said: "I don't think that Matty was just a rebound, I am sure the relationship started with the best intentions, but I do wonder how long it would take anyone to really get over a serious six-year relationship.

"It would be hard for anyone in this situation, and even more so in a global spotlight."
