Matty Healy Engaged to Gabbriette Bechtel One Year After Taylor Swift Split

The 1975 frontman proposed to his girlfriend after a whirlwind romance.

Although Matty has not publicly addressed their engagement, his mom, Denise Welch, confirmed the news on Wednesday, June 12, on Loose Women, per PEOPLE. Swifties have speculated that a few songs in Taylor’s new album, The Tortured Poets Department, were inspired by her and Matty’s relationship — particularly “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived.” “And you deserve prison but you won’t get time / You’ll slide into inboxes and slip through the bars / You crashed my party in your rental car / You said normal girls were boring / But you were gone by the morning / You kicked out the stage lights / But you’re still performing.”
