Taylor Swift and The 1975's frontman Matty Healy are rumoured to be dating, according to reports, with one particular TikTok clip of the two sending fans into meltdown. Speculation about the pair's 'romance' comes several weeks after 33-year-old Taylor revealed she had broken up with boyfriend Joe Alwyn, after six years of being together.
But on Friday (May 5), Matty was snapped at one of Taylor's sold-out Eras Tour concerts at Nashville’s Nissan Stadium, watching from the crowd in the VIP section next to Taylor's friend Gigi Hadid. This already left fans going wild, but it was the moment Taylor mouthed a certain string of words out to the audience while on stage that really stirred up fan speculation.
On Wednesday (May 3), just two days before Taylor's gig, Matty was performing at his own concert in Manila. Before singing his song About You, Matty was filmed saying the words: "This is about you. You know who you are. You know. I love you."
And then during Taylor's show, while performing her hit single Cardigan, she was seen mouthing the same words: "This one is about you. You know who you are. I love you," she said.
Unsurprisingly, clips of the two reciting the same sentences went viral. On TikTok, one user called 1776z, uploaded a video of the two clips, with the words: "Matty Healy: During show on 5/3. Taylor Swift: During show on 5/5. With him in attendance. Great bit 10/10."
The TikTok video has already racked up a whopping 6.8 million views, with thousands of likes and comments. Klaasie typed: "She looks SO happy!!!!!!" Louis12208 penned: "Omg cutest thing ever."
Bex Boardman, who seems to have been at the concert, added: "Seeing Taylor do this in real time after seeing the Matty video a couple days before… I was shaking." Katietufts replied: "THIS HAS TO BE A SOCIAL EXPERIMENT."
But some were sceptical. A user also called Taylor admitted: "I’m just so confused as to how they love each other already. Didn’t her and Joe just break up?" H.tailore exclaimed: "There is no actual way in hell."
Meanwhile, others suggested that the similar statements may just be a nod to a future collaboration between the two artists. Lucy said: "Maybe it’s a new song that they have together and that’s a lyric ahahaha."
Lilibeth Amelie argued: "What if this is just a lyrics of a song from vault track that they're gonna collab????" Maureen put: "I think they know the rumors benefit both of them so why not." Lacey said: "I’m trying to convince myself this is a PR stunt."
