Taylor Swift may be head over heels in love with Travis Kelce. However, that didn’t stop her from being taken aback when it was announced that her ex-boyfriend Matty Healy is engaged. The singer is said to be very surprised that The 1975 lead singer has taken a huge step in his relationship with his girlfriend, Gabbriette Bechtel. Swift is said to be reeling a bit after the big engagement announcement, and it could be because she and Kelce have yet to make things official.
Sources told Life and Style that Taylor Swift was shocked to learn of Matty Healy’s engagement to Gabbriette Bechtel. It reportedly didn’t surprise her that he moved on to date someone else, much like she did with Travis Kelce. However, marriage is something that she wasn’t prepared to see her ex do at this stage.

“Taylor wasn’t surprised to hear that Matty was seriously dating someone, I mean, so was she, but she was shocked to learn that he was already engaged,” an insider told the outlet. “She’s happily moved on to Travis and couldn’t be happier, but a little part of her questions if Matty was ever really into her.”
Meanwhile, Taylor Swift is said to be amazed that Matty Healy was able to change his ways for his new fiancé. However, despite it all, she wants to see him happy.
“[Taylor] wonders why he was able to change for [Gabriette]. That part stings a little. I guess it’s a girl thing, always analyzing exes and why past relationships didn’t work out, which is something Taylor is famous for doing,” the source added. “But don’t get me wrong, she wouldn’t go back in time for all the money in the world. She’s in love with Travis and hopes Matty has found happiness too.”
In addition, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are going through some marriage drama of their own. The couple are said to be bombarded with engagement questions from their loved ones and they’re sick of it. Swift even allegedly asked her friends and family to quit talking about, per The Dirt Factory. Especially since it’s causing the Kansas City Chiefs tight end to pull away from the singer.
“The constant questioning from friends and family is starting to really get them down. Not a day goes by they don’t get hit with gentle hints and questions,” Life and Style previously reported. “The social media and fan chatter about an engagement is bad enough, but he also gets questions from friends, and the more he’s pressured, the more he withdraws.”
It seems that Taylor Swift has a lot to process at the moment. Not only does she need to come to terms with Matty Healy’s engagement, but also her own relationship with Travis Kelce.
