BREAKING NEW: Denise Welch criticiᴢeꜱ Tayloʀ Swift after Μatty Healy’s diss sᴏng
Denise Welch appeared to throw shade at her son Matty Healy‘s ex girlfriend Taylor Swift on Thursday.
1975 singer Matty, 35, was surprisingly the focus of the 34-year-old’s heartbreak album which was released last week to rave reviews.
Matty and Taylor dated briefly after her split from her long-term boyfriend Joe Alwyn last year and despite the short relationship plenty of songs on the record appear to be about him.
Fortnight (feat. Post Malone) and in particular The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived seem to reference the star and the heartbreak Taylor felt when things ended.
Now, his mother Denise has had her say, telling her Loose Women co-stars: ‘I wasn’t aware she had an album out at all… Anyway I wish her all the best.’

Matty’s mother Denise has had her say, telling her Loose Women co-stars: ‘I wasn’t aware she had an album out at all… Anyway I wish her all the best.’
It comes as Healy broke his silence on Wednesday on the music which documents their failed romance.
Asked by a reporter from Entertainment Tonight on Wednesday what he thought of the ‘diss track’ he politely replied: ‘I haven’t really listened to that much of it but I’m sure it’s good.’
Swift’s eleventh album was released on April 19 as speculation the diss song was about Healy hit fever pitch around the world.
Choice lyrics refer to a man in a ‘Jehovah’s Witness suit’ responsible for ‘rusting my sparkling summer’.
Healy is known for wearing distinctive black suits during live performances and the pair are believed to have broken up in June 2023.
According to Us Weekly , his reaction has been positive, and the people close to him ‘couldn’t be happier’ with how the record turned out.

A source said on Saturday: ‘Matty still thinks very highly of Taylor but we were all nervous about what she might have said on the album.
‘Matty’s family were worried that Taylor was going to rip him apart. Matty has struggled with life in the public eye, and he’s been doing really well, but the last thing that he needs is for every Swiftie in the world to think he’s a villain.’
Another insider told the publication: ‘He was worried that their story would be shed in a negative light’ but was ‘really appreciative of the heads up’ he got from Swift.
DailyMail.com exclusively revealed that Taylor’s unparalleled starpower played a role in the end of her relationship with Joe amid claims by fans that he was unfaithful.
A source close to the singer said at the time: ‘The bottom line for the difficulties in their relationship was that Taylor’s career took priority over Joe’s – which can be awkward for a couple when it’s not balanced.
‘This drove them apart and ultimately, they both realized they were not on the same page anymore.’

The insider explained that ‘it’s been hard for Joe trying to make it in Hollywood and not quite becoming leading man material while dating one of the most famous women in the world over the last six years.
‘It was easier during the pandemic when it was just the two of them, but once things returned to normal, Taylor Swift the superstar emerged, and their differences were even more apparent.
‘They really made a go of it and tried everything they could but ultimately were unable to save the relationship,’ the source concluded.
MailOnline has contacted Healy and Swift’s representatives for further comment.
