Matty Healy seems to be back to his old on-stage tricks amid his ‘split’ from Taylor Swift.
The 1975 frontman, 34, and the Love Story hitmaker, 33, have been romantically linked over the past month after they were spotted out and about together and according to some watchful fans, ‘kissing’.
Swifties of course went wild at the rumours, which circulated for a short time before sources recently reported the couple have now ‘split’, citing their ‘busy’ schedules and compatibility issues as the reason.
The musical pair never confirmed nor denied the rumours, but they looked pretty publicly cosy on multiple occasions hopping into cars together during Taylor’s ongoing Eras tour – which Matty has also been supporting.
Now, it appears the indie rocker is enjoying some good old fashioned hedonism as he took to the stage in Vienna with a hipflask last night.
The Chocolate hitmaker – who is known for his chaotic and unpredictable on-stage antics – swigged from the silver accessory during the gig and wore an eye patch for the occasion.

It appeared the singer wasn’t holding back as he wore a black suit and simple white T-shirt for the gig amid the rumoured break-up.
An insider told TMZ yesterday Taylor is ‘single’ again.
Shedding light on the reason behind their sudden break-up, a source told Entertainment Tonight: ‘They are both extremely busy and realized they’re not really compatible with each other.

‘Taylor’s friends want what’s best for her and aren’t shocked that their relationship fizzled out since she recently got out of a long-term relationship.’
The romance rumours began shortly after Taylor broke up from her boyfriend of six years, Joe Alwyn.
Matty’s hipflask appearance comes after he took – once again – to kissing people mid-gig.

Having once famously sucked a concert-goer’s thumb and another time kissing a fan in the crowd after asking for their ID, Matty gave a security guard a smacker during a recent 1975 performance.
The news of the rumoured ‘split’ will make some of Taylor’s vocally critical fandom breathe a heavy sigh of relief, including, randomly, Azealia Banks, who warned the star in a bizarre rant that Matty would give her ‘scabies.’
