NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Rumors of Taylor Swift, 33, and Matty Healy, 34, dating in recent months have led to skepticism about their relationship. In light of the similarities between Swift and Healy's alleged relationship, and one she had seven years ago with Tom Hiddleston, the 'Love Story' singer fans have now developed a new theory that contends their relationship may be doomed to fail.
On May 11, Swift and Healy were seen "kissing" at Casa Cipriani in New York City. Apparently, the couple "sat next to each other at a banquette in the lounge," an eyewitness said. The eyewitness also stated that neither of them had ordered food while they were "cuddling and kissing," as reported by Page Six.

What is the conspiracy theory about?
Swift made news in 2016 when it was revealed she had broken up with Scottish DJ Calvin Harris and began dating British actor Tom Hiddleston. After three months of dating, Swift and Hiddleston called it quits on their brief relationship in September 2016. Fans are already comparing Hiddleson to Healy on Twitter, the man she allegedly started seeing after splitting from British actor Joe Alwyn after six years of dating, as per Daily Express.
The brief relationship, which began when the two danced on "Getaway Car" at the Met Gala, flourished during the summer before the couple split up in September 2016. According to a source who spoke exclusively to Us Weekly, "[Taylor] was the one to put the brakes on the relationship. Tom wanted the relationship to be more public than she was comfortable with."
'This is getaway 2'
As soon as the 'Anti-Hero' singer "confirmed" her romance with the 1975's frontman, Swift's fans swiftly took to Twitter to decode their "conspiracy theory." One Twitter user suggested that Swift wore a yellow dress while she was dating Hiddleston and wore it again recently, which they took as an indication. They said, "Historically, a yellow dress has been a cry for help," while another user chimed in, "Im sorry but yellow dress literally is her symbol for rebounds."
Another typed, "Maybe it’s just another getaway car moment." Someone else typed, "That’s what I’ve been saying, this is getaway 2." Another follower quipped, "Taylor Swift isn't dating Matty Healy just like she never dated Harry Styles, Jake Gyllenhaal, John Mayer, Joe Jonas or Tom Hiddleston. The last person Taylor Swift dated publicly was Dianna Agron and before that? Karlie Kloss. Stop your Bull$hit Swifties!"
The theory that Swift's relationship with Healy is a "PR stunt" to promote the release of new music was another that social media users seemed to support. One of them wrote, "Taylor Swift dating Matty Healy so that she can drop drop Reputation re-records. Let her cook." Another one tweeted, "I honestly think Taylor is dating Matty so that she can release Reputation tv." Someone else snarked, "My conspiracy theory ass is currently thinking… what if now she’s announced Speak Now TV, Taylor is “allegedly dating” Matty Healy cause she wants to get everyone talking but all this is a PR stunt and really after Speak Now she’ll release Reputation TV."
Rumored couple 'madly in love'
Meanwhile, insiders told The Sun on May 3 that Swift and Healy were "madly in love." The insider said, "It's super-early days, but it feels right," to the media outlet. According to sources, "They first dated, very briefly, almost 10 years ago, but the timings just didn't work out."
The insider clarified that since Alwyn and Swift had broken up in February, there was no overlap. According to Page Six, Swift has been more open about having Healy by herself than she had been with the actor ever since the 1975 singer attended many of her 'Eras' tour dates.
