LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The internet is buzzing with speculation after the alleged 'leak' of Taylor Swift’s latest album ‘The Tortured Poets Department.’

Is Taylor Swift's new album about Matty Healy?

Taylor Swift’s quick and intense relationship with the lead singer of 'The 1975' came right after her split from Joe Alwyn in February 2023.

Even though they got romantically involved in 2023, Swift reportedly met Healy on November 19, 2014, after she attended his concert with Selena Gomez and Ellie Goulding.

She then posted photos from the concert along with the caption, "Yeah you wanna find love, Then you know where the city is,” lyrics from one of 'The 1975’s songs, 'The City.'

On November 29, 2014, Matty said he “wouldn’t say no” to dating Taylor Swift after a radio DJ asked him about their relationship and Taylor’s appearance at his concert.

“Let’s just see what happens,” Matty said, as per E! News. “I mean bloody hell, what am I going to do? Go out with Taylor Swift? She’s a sensation,” he added.

The rumors first began to pour in when Swift attended another concert of Healy with Karlie Kloss on December 4, 2014, as reported by Life&Style. She, however, denied the rumors in 2015. 

This new romance surprised everyone in the entertainment industry. Despite the brevity of their romance, fans are shocked to hear Healy allegedly feature "so prominently" in the album.

While some fans have written off the leak as fabricated, others believe the songs provide an early glimpse into the official album.

An online zip file containing the same number of tracks as Swift's confirmed song list for her forthcoming album has intensified the speculation, Daily Mail noted.
