    • ] Getty Images (2) Matty Healy and Gabbriette Bechtel’s romance has been years in the making. According to Bechtel’s 2024 profile in HommeGirls magazine, she and Healy tried to meet for four years before they actually did. “He came to L.A., and we’ve been in love ever since,” Bechtel gushed to the magazine in their spring/summer 2024 issue, adding that they love to play Fortnite in bed and order takeout. The 1975 frontman started dating Bechtel, a model and singer, in September 2023. Three months earlier, Healy and Taylor Swift had ended their brief rekindled fling. Healy and Swift, who were first linked in 2014, dated in spring 2023 after her split from Joe Alwyn. Swift seemingly chronicled the breakup on her 2024 album, The Tortured Poets Department. “He loves the attention it’s brought to him, [but] he also thinks it’s hilarious because at no time [were they] ever serious,” a source close to Healy exclusively told Us Weekly after TTPD’s release, claiming Healy was “completely blindsided” that Swift wrote about the pair discussing a future together. “For her to be saying things about baby carriages … and living together — he says it had never even come up. He’s taking it in stride.” Healy has since remained focused on his relationship with Bechtel, popping the question in June 2024.
