Matty Healy appeared on Halsey's 2015 album 'Badlands'
The singer of 'Robbers' was linked with Halsey in 2015 when the latter appeared at one of The 1975's performances and collaborated with them on the song 'Ghosts'. One of Halsey's most well-known tracks, 'Colors', from her 2015 album 'Badlands', sparked fan speculation that it was also about Healy. Halsey didn't say directly to whom she was referring, but she did hint that it was a love partner, as per Page Six. Healy and Halsey have never openly acknowledged their relationship.
"My song ‘Colors’ is about being in a relationship with someone and kind of watching the vibrancy slowly start to leak out of them, watch the colors start to fade, whether they’re falling victim to drugs or falling victim to work or any sort of negative behavior that’s kind of taking them away from the bright and lively person that they used to be," she explained on SiriusXM's show 'HitBound' in 2016.
Aliana Lohan 'always thought he was super hot and was really into music'
There were speculations that Healy was romantically involved with Lindsay Lohan's younger sister, Ali Lohan, at the same time he first started relationship rumors with Swift in 2014. The two met through Ali's well-known sister and were reportedly "hooking up" in December of that year, per Radar Online at the time.
A source earlier told the magazine that Ali "always thought he was super hot and was really into his music." She thereafter began attending all of his performances, and they began dating intermittently. Both parties have remained silent about the rumors since then and never confirmed their relationship.
Gabriella Brooks 'grew tired of his constant partying'
Healy's longest relationship lasted from 2015 to 2019 with Gabriella Brooks. The model dumped the artist in August 2019, per a source in The Sun, because she "grew tired of his constant partying." The 'Happiness' singer appeared to confirm the cause of the separation, in a 2020 interview with The Guardian. Following her breakup with Healy, Brooks started dating Liam Hemsworth, with whom she is currently involved.
FKA Twigs and Matty Healy called it quits post-pandemic
Healy and FKA Twigs (real name is Tahliah Barnett) were first seen together in January 2020 at RuPaul's DragCon UK. Just one month later, the duo officially announced their relationship and joined Instagram when Healy posted a photo of them together at the NME Awards. Healy and Twigs ended their relationship in June 2022 after supposedly having trouble making it work after the pandemic.
Matty Healy was allegedly seeing Charlotte Briar D’Alessio
In December 2022, Healy was allegedly seeing Canadian model and influencer Charlotte Briar D'Alessio, shortly before romance rumors about Healy and Swift began to surface. At the time, a source claimed to The Sun that the two had "been quietly dating for a number of weeks and are head over heels for each other." The insider sounded certain that they would go public together in "a matter of time," but it doesn't look like they ever made their alleged relationship Instagram official. It is unknown whether or why Healy and D'Alessio broke up because neither has commented on the alleged relationship.
Rumored to be dating Taylor Swift
When they were both seen publicly supporting one another in the fall of 2014, the British crooner and the 'Blank Space' songstress at first ignited romance rumors. Healy admitted that they had been hanging around at the time, taunting Australia's 'Shazam Top 20'. "We exchanged numbers. Let’s see what happens," she said. Later, the rock star called the reports of their relationship "fake" in January 2015, around the same time that he was linked to Halsey.
Healy and Swift are apparently again in touch more than eight years later. Despite being in the "super-early" phases of dating, an insider boasted that they are already "madly in love." Since splitting from Alwyn after six years of dating, Healy would be Swift's first relationship in the public eye.
