News about Matty Healy

Taylor Swift is opening up about the lyrics to some of the more esoteric lyrics in her song My Boy Breaks All His Favorite Toys. The song - which is track three on The Tortured Poet's Department - has fans wondering whether it is about Joe Alwyn , Matty Healy or some other person who has wronged the Shake It Off singer, 34, in the past. The chorus states: 'My boy only breaks his favorite toys, toys, oh / I'm queen of sand castles he destroys, oh, oh / 'Cause it fit too right, puzzle pieces in the dead of night / I should've known it was a matter of time, oh, oh.' In an interview with Amazon Music, the Eras Tour mastermind explained that the theme is a metaphor from the perspective of a child's favorite toy. 'Being somebody's favorite toy until they break you and then don't want to play with you anymore,' she began.

Taylor Swift fans were thrown for a loop by The Tortured Poets Department being way more about Matty Healy than Joe Alwyn.

How does it make sense she finally ends a six-year relationship, and it warrants fewer songs than her one-month rebound guy? One possible explanation we’ve seen over the past week is how Taylor and Matty had more than just that month — after all, they did briefly date back in 2014. Was this a decade-long situationship? Off and on when they weren’t seeing other people? In each other’s minds the whole time?
