There are rumors swirling around that Taylor Swift is dating The 1975 frontman Matty Healy, and in the past he's talked about the prospect of dating her.

If the rumors are true then Fernando Alonso must be in an absolute state right about now, with Swift and Healy said to have fallen 'madly in love' with one another.

These claims are coming following her reported breakup with long time partner Joe Alwyn, with the iconic singer seemingly finding herself single and ready to mingle.

It's not the first time that Swift and Healy have been romantically linked as there were rumors flying around that they were dating all the way back in 2014.

Healy denied the rumors back then, saying they'd met but that there was 'no like, relationship or anything happening'.

He also said he found it 'funny how people really, really buy into that'.

Later on he told Q that he found the idea of dating Swift 'emasculating' as he commented on the rumors that they had got together.

He said: "It’s not really anything to talk about, because if she wasn’t Taylor Swift we wouldn’t be talking about her. She wasn’t a big impact on my life. It’s just interesting to me how interested the world is about Taylor Swift.

"And the reason I mention that is because if I had gone out with Taylor Swift I would’ve been, 'F**king hell! I am NOT being Taylor Swift’s boyfriend.' You know, 'F**K. THAT.

"That’s also a man thing, a de-masculinating, emasculating thing."

That interview attracted a bit of backlash, leading Healy to take to social media to further explain what he had meant with his words.

"Now I may admit to being an idiot on occasion, but I am not a misogynist. This suggestion makes me really sad," he wrote.

"I was for a very short time immersed in a celebrity world that I found confusing and scary. At that time, I had fears of being 'somebody's boyfriend' (remember this is all speculation as we never dated!) before even being recognised for my music or presence as a person in my own right.

"Now I don't pride myself on being more intelligent, or worldly, or wise, or progressive, or even regressive than the next man but I DO pride self on being honest.

"I was being HONEST about all the thoughts, feelings, and situations that come along when people ASSUME you are dating the most famous woman on the planet. I am telling you from experience it's an all-consuming whirlwind and something that for me elicited a lot of self-exploration."
