What Matty Healy’s aunt said

Debbie Dedes said, “Nothing surprises him any more. He will not be surprised by the song. Him and her know what went on. As my nephew, we know a bit more about what went on than has been in the press. He’s very happy in his new relationship so I’m sure he will be focusing on that.”

Matty is currently dating model Gabbriette Bechtel. The two were first photographed together last year in September as they were seen holding hands and kissing each other. It marked Matty’s first relationship after his brief romance with Taylor. The two dated for less than two months in 2023, between May and June.
