Matty Healy wasted no time proposing to model Gabbriette Bechtel less than a year after his whirlwind romance with Taylor Swift, which sparked an entire album of emotional songs.
Upon learning that her former flame had finally decided to settle down with someone new, it came as a sharp sting to Swift, who had already embarked on a new journey with NFL tight end Travis Kelce.
According to a source who spoke to Radar Online, "[Healy's] engagement shocked her. He certainly wasn't the settling down type when [Swift] was dating him."
From April through June 2023, a passionate relationship unfolded between the 34-year-old pop star and the 35-year-old frontman of The 1975.
Despite doubts arising from the Healy's history of drug addiction and allegations of inappropriate behavior, the two were deeply involved during that period.
The former couple's fling all started in 2014 and their re-emerged connection became headline news in the spring of 2023.
The "Fortnight" singer encountered criticism following Healy's controversial remarks on adult content and reportedly insensitive jokes directed towards her friend Ice Spice during podcasts that circulated once again.
Without warning, he vanished from Swift's life, only for paparazzi to capture him locking lips with Bechtel three months later.
The insider said, "Part of [Swift] wonders why [Healy] couldn't change sooner. But she really is in love with [Kelce] and hopes [Healy] has found true happiness as well."

Within the songs of Swift's recently released album, The Tortured Poets Department, the award-winning singer once again showcased her talent for embedding hidden messages referencing her past romantic entanglements.
Diving into the lyrical content, insights into Swift's enduring six-year romance with Joe Alwyn are interwoven with subtle hints at her fleeting involvement with Healy.
After its release, fans with insider knowledge of the "Chocolate" singer are shedding light on his response.
According to a source from Us Weekly, he is embracing the newfound spotlight with enthusiasm while finding amusement in the fact that the band's work was never intended to be taken seriously.
Surprisingly, specific unexpected themes in Swift's album's lyrics caught him off guard.
Days after the TTPD album release, Healy shared his thoughts about it and when asked to compare his Swift's diss track to others, he admitted, "I haven't really listened to that much of it but I'm sure it's good."
