Congratulations to Matt Healy and Gabbriette Bechtel, who are officially engaged! The lovely news comes a year after Matt Healy and Taylor Swift ended their romance. On Tuesday evening, Bechtel jumped on her Instagram story with two pictures, announcing her engagement to the 1975 frontman. The first slide featured a photo of the model’s left hand with a ring. The ring featured a black gem surrounded by pavรฉ diamonds around the stone and the band. “MARRYING THE 1975 IS VERY BRAT,” Bechtel captioned the snap, also tagging Healy’s Instagram account.
The 26-year-old performer also flaunted the gorgeous jewelry in a mirror selfie, showing her rocking a black dress. While it was initially unclear if the posts were indeed an engagement announcement, Healy‘s mother, Denise Welch, confirmed it during an appearance on Loose Women on Wednesday. “I have known for a few months that Matty got engagedโฆThey went over to see their friends, Charli and Goerge in New York and I woke up this morning to the fact that they’ve put it on Instagram,” she said per The Sun. Welch went on to express her happiness about Bechtel becoming a part of the family soon. She revealed she couldn’t be more thrilled, adding that the model was everything she would want in a daughter-in-law.
Matt Healy and Gabbriette Bechtel were first linked in September 2023. This was after cameras caught them kissing, hugging, and holding hands in New York City. Days later, pictures showed them together at an event in Brooklyn. Before long, Healy confirmed he was in a relationship. The news shocked many, considering Matt Healy and Taylor Swift had broken up a few months prior. The pair reportedly dated for only one month before parting ways. At the time, a source revealed Swift and Healy were extremely busy and realized they were incompatible. So far, the pair seem to maintain a cordial relationship while focusing on their different partners.
