The 1975’s Matty Healy was at Taylor Swift’s recent Eras Tour stop. The singer was spotted on stage performing during Taylor’s opening in Nashville and then again when the pop star was on stage.

And it appears they weren't alone for the evening. Swift and Healy were joined by pal Jack Antonoff, who was also pictured in the now-viral snapshot, and his fiancée Margaret Qualley for a double date at New York City's Casa Cipriani, according to TMZ.
The outing comes six days after Healy, 34, was photographed supporting Swift, 33, at her Nashville concert. On May 5, the "Somebody Else" singer was seen watching the concert from a VIP tent in the crowd.

The next day, he joined Phoebe Bridgers, Swift's opening act, onstage to perform on the guitar.
The romance rumors between Swift and Healy aren't exactly new, as their history goes way back—nearly a decade, to be exact. In 2014, Healy sparked dating speculation when he shared that the two had swapped phone numbers after meeting at his band's concert. "I mean bloody hell, what am I going to do?" he quipped at the time. "Go out with Taylor Swift? She's a sensation, I wouldn't say no."

However, he later clarified that the two had traded contact info for purely platonic reasons. "We met each other, we exchanged numbers in the same way that a lot of people in this kind of world do, and we spoke occasionally," he told Australia's 2DayFM in January 2015. "She's the biggest pop star in the world and I'm in Australia. There's no relationship or anything happening."
Since then, Healy has been romantically connected to Gabriella Brooks, Halsey and FKA twigs. Meanwhile, Swift dated Calvin Harris, Tom Hiddleston and Joe Alwyn, with whom she was with for six years before news of their breakup surfaced this spring.
