Swifties convinced these two songs from Taylor Swift's 'TTPD' are about ex Matty Healy
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Taylor Swift’s fans are convinced that her ‘Fortnight’ song from her latest album — ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ — is about her ex, Matty Healy.
The pop sensation and the English singer-songwriter were reportedly first linked with each other in 2014 before they reconnected in 2023 for some time.
Fan shares details about the similarities
One of the very evident resemblances between ‘Fortnight’ and Healy’s indie art pop band 1975 is the black and white setup, E! News reported.
Swift has collaborated with Post Malone on the song and its music video shows them donning long black coats with pants and loafers, which is very similar to Healy’s band's style for their 2022 song ‘Part of the Band.’

The song also features Malone with actors Ethan Hawke and Josh Charles wearing lab coats and glasses, seemingly mirroring The 1975's uniform for ‘At Their Very Best Tour’.
The publication citing a fan of Kelsie Carlos’ TikTok video stated, “They actually had most of the stage crew wearing the lab coats during the entire show. When the second leg of the tour started up, Matty started wearing these lab coats with the glasses.”
Not only that but Swift was also seen wearing a headpiece in the song that appeared like the record producer’s crown Healy donned in ‘Part of the Band’.
Meanwhile, the song’s lyrics go like, “And I love you, it's ruining my life. I touched you, for only a fortnight.”
“At dinner, you take my ring off my middle finger and put it on the one people put wedding rings on. And that’s the closest I’ve come to my heart exploding,” it added.
‘But Daddy I Love Him’ apparently refers to Taylor Swift’s romance with Matty Healy
Swift’s ‘But Daddy I Love Him’ is also being connected to Healy as despite being criticized for being with the singer, who received backlash for his controversial statements, she chose him.
In the song, she said, “No I'm not coming to my senses. I know it's crazy but he's the one I want.”

This comes after the ‘Lover’ singer earlier spoke about ‘Fortnight’ with iHeartRadio and called it “fatalistic”.
‘I personally think that Fortnight is for Matty Healy’
