Who is Matty Healy dating now? He's been linked to model Gabbriette Bechtel

• Matty Healy and Gabbriette Bechtel were first linked in September 2023.

• Bechtel is a model, dancer, and musician who previously worked with Charli XCX.

• The pair haven't confirmed their relationship, but have appeared together in a photo posted by Healy's mom.

If you listened to Taylor Swift's latest album "The Tortured Poets Department," you might have thought about Matty Healy.

As Business Insider's senior music reporter Callie Ahlgrim wrote, Swift seemed to reference her weeks-long relationship with Healy throughout the album. The pair dated briefly in 2023 after Swift split from Joe Alwyn, her partner of six years. Reports circulated that Healy and Swift broke up in June 2023.

Like Swift, who is now dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, Healy has also moved on from their relationship. He was first linked to Gabbriette Bechtel, a model, in September 2023.

Here's everything you need to know about Healy and Bechtel's apparent relationship.

Bechtel is a model and musician

Highsnobiety reported that Bechtel (whose given name is Gabriella) was born in Orange County, California, in July 1997, to parents of Mexican and German ancestry. Bechtel told Vogue that as a child, she wanted to become a professional ballerina, but ended up dancing in music videos when she moved to Los Angeles. From there, she launched a career as a model.

According to Vogue, Bechtel has appeared in a variety of campaigns for brands including Heaven By Marc Jacobs and Skims. She also walked the runway for Diesel's autumn/winter 2023 fashion show.

Outside modeling, Bechtel also makes cooking content that she posts on Instagram. She told Vogue that her parents influenced her love of cooking.

"Family meals were a big part of our life, we'd sit down together after school without our phones and talk about our day, and the cooking process was always a big part of that," Bechtel told Vogue.

Bechtel is also the lead vocalist of the band Nasty Cherry, which was formed by Charli XCX and was the subject of a Netflix original series titled "I'm With The Band." Nasty Cherry hasn't released music since 2021, and Bechtel confirmed that the band had broken up due to challenges posed by the pandemic.

"We couldn't do anything together, we couldn't tour our second EP, and we weren't able to make music together because we were all in different places in the world. So we just decided that it wasn't going to work out anymore," she told Highsnobiety. "I miss it all the time. It ended too abruptly."

Healy and Bechtel were first linked in New York in 2023

In September 2023, People published photos of Healy and Bechtel kissing in SoHo in New York City. At the time, the publication reported that their connection was unclear — but that they both had a mutual friend in Charli XCX.

The pair have been quiet about their speculated relationship, and haven't explicitly confirmed it. However, Healy's mother once interacted with Bechtel on Instagram after Bechtel posted a photo of herself in a thong and a leather apron from her collaboration with R&M Leathers.

"That's exactly how I hope to look in mine when it arrives!!" Healy's mother, Denise Welch, replied, accompanied by three thumbs up and heart emoji.

Bechtel also made a cameo on Welch's Instagram account, appearing in a photo with Welch, Healy, and his younger brother Louis. The three saw Welch's play, "The Gap," and she wrote in the caption of the post that it was "lovely to have the family in to see mum at work."

Bechtel alluded to her relationship with Healy in the March interview with Highsnobiety, saying that she wasn't bothered by the attention.

"I don't give a shit. I think it's hilarious. Go for it. Have fun. People have a lot to say," she told the publication. "You don't know me at all."
