Taylor Swift’s Father is Concerned About Her Dating Life, Doubts Her Boyfriend is Using Her For Fame
Over the weekend, Matty Healy, the guitarist of the band The 1975 and rumored romantic interest of Taylor Swift, was seen jamming alongside none other than Swift’s father, Scott Swift, at her Saturday night concert. Following her breakup with her longtime boyfriend, actor Joe Alwyn, rumors circulated that she was now dating Matty Healy. He made appearances at Taylor Swift’s Nashville concerts during her Eras Tour earlier this month, where he enthusiastically sang along to her songs from the VIP section and even joined opening act Phoebe Bridgers on stage on the second night in Nashville. However, the pop star’s father, Scott Kingsley Swift, harbors doubts about Matty Healy’s intentions as their relationship continues to develop.
Who is Matty Healy?
Matty Healy, the multi-talented artist, serves as both the singer and guitarist in the English band, The 1975. Alongside Healy, the band consists of Adam Hann on guitar, Ross MacDonald on bass, and George Daniel on drums. Healy’s lineage stems from British actors Tim Healy and Denise Welch, while his younger brother, Louis Healy, also pursues an acting career. The formation of The 1975 took place during their time at Wilmslow High School in 2002, and since then, they have remained a steadfast unit, maturing together since their teenage years. Initially, Healy showcased his musical abilities through drumming, later expanding to lead vocals and guitar.
Occasionally, he also demonstrates his piano skills during live performances. Notably, both The 1975 and Taylor Swift share the expertise of music producer Jack Antonoff, who has previously collaborated on their respective albums. Reports from Entertainment Tonight suggest that Antonoff played a role in reuniting Healy and Swift, further strengthening their connection last month.
Matty Healy’s Controversies Make Scott Swift Wary About Taylor Swift’s and His Romance
According to a report from Radar Online, Scott Swift, the 71-year-old father of Taylor Swift, is raising questions about the intentions of The 1975 frontman in his relationship with their globally renowned daughter. The publication alleges that Scott Swift is concerned that Healy may be dating his popstar daughter solely due to her fame and has been closely monitoring him. An insider stated,
“Scott is wary of any man Taylor dates and questions if Matty has an agenda or is using her for fame. He’s definitely keeping a close eye on Healy – mainly because of his wild past.”

Swift has faced criticism for her association with Healy, with concerns stemming from his controversial history. Matty Healy has struggled with addiction to heroin and prescription drugs, and his past remarks have stirred controversy and garnered negative attention. The publication also highlights instances where he behaved inappropriately towards fans during concerts, including kissing them and fellow performers, as well as engaging in provocative gestures on stage.
These incidents, such as consuming raw meat and appearing to make a Nazi salute during a recent performance this year, have added to the unease surrounding Healy’s reputation
