While a few songs are believed to be about Taylor Swift’s ex Joe Alwyn, who she dated for 6 years, many fans are convinced the bulk of the songs written by Swift on her newest album, The Tortured Poets Department, are about her seemingly short-lived romance with The 1975’s frontman Matty Healy.

Though Swift never mentions Healy by name, paparazzi caught up with Matty himself. One of the paparazzo who spotted Matty asked him how he would “rate” his alleged “Taylor diss track.”

At first Matty appeared to not know what the paparazzo was talking about until it eventually clicked. “My diss track? Oh,” he said with a quick laugh, “I haven’t really listened to that much of it, but I’m sure it’s good,” he added.

Healy’s aunt, Debbie Dedes, also spoke with the Daily Mail in the day following the release of the album.

She was asked about how her nephew will handle Swift’s new music many people is written about him. “Nothing surprises him anymore,” Dedes admitted.

“He will not be surprised by the song. Him and her know what went on. She writes about all her relationships, doesn’t she,” she contined. “I don’t think it will come as a shock to him at all.”

And there you have it. 

Dedes then said Healy has since moved on from his controversial fling with Swift. He is now dating model Gabbriette Bechtel.

“He’s very happy in his new relationship,” she told the Daily Mail, “so I’m sure he will be focusing on that.”

In addition to Healy’s aunt, Patti Smith, who Swift name dropped in one of the songs presumed to be about Healy, The Tortured Poets Department, spoke out as well.

In the song, Swift writes, “I laughed in your face and said, ‘You’re not Dylan Thomas, I’m not Patti Smith. This aint the Chelsea Hotel. We’re modern idiots.'”

On Instagram Patti Smith shared two photos of herself reading one of Thomas’ poetry books:

“This is
saying I was
moved to be
mentioned in
the company
of the great
Welsh poet
Dylan Thomas.
Thank you Taylor.”

Swift name checked several other well known people in her industry throughout her album as well, including fellow song writer and producer Charlie Puth. He has not yet responded.
