Brutal twist after Taylor Swift's celebrity romance
Bad blood indeed.
Matty Healy's mum, Denise Welch, isn't over the 'heartbreak' her son endured after his short-lived romance with Taylor Swift ended — that's why she couldn't stay quiet on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Thursday.
'It's a horrible thing to have the most famous person in the world saying that your son broke her heart when it was the other way around, and then you can't even defend yourself,' a source told Us Weekly on Saturday.
They added, 'She's saying the mother-in-law stuff because that's where Matty thought it was headed. She's entitled to her opinion.'
Reps for Welch and Healy did not immediately return Page Six's request for comment.
When asked by Andy Cohen what she thought of Swift's Tortured Poet's Department album — purported to be about The 1957 frontman and his romance with the singer that lasted only about a month in May 2023 — Welch declared that 'not being her mother-in-law is a role that I am glad that I lost.'

As the audience gasped, the Celebrity Big Brother UK star, 67, quickly added that she doesn't 'have anything against [Swift] at all,' and called the situation 'tricky.'
'She — listen, you're not allowed to say anything, and then she writes a whole album about it,' Welch said of the Love Story hitmaker.
Us Weekly's insider said it's been difficult for Welch to keep quiet when it comes to her son's former romance.
'Any mum can imagine what it would feel like — but then you have to multiply it by a million because of how famous [Taylor] is,' they told the outlet.
'I wish I could say she's used to it, but she's not.'

The source also said that the reality star 'is still Matty's mum at the end of the day, and it was bloody hard for her to stay quiet during the whole ordeal.'
'Now that time has gone by, she's saying what she can because she knows that her son got hurt.'
The insider asserted that 'you can't blame a mum for standing up for her child,' and called their split 'terrible' for Healy.
Swift, 35, has since gone on to a widely publicised relationship with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, while Healy, 36, is engaged to model and actress Gabbriette Bechtel.
On Watch What Happens Live, Welch insisted the family has 'moved on' from the alleged drama.
'He is very happy with his amazing fiancee Gabriella, who is gorgeous,' she said.

Don't miss out on the headlines from Celebrity Life. Followed categories will be added to My News. Christina Applegate recorded the latest episode of her MeSsy podcast from a Los Angeles hospital bed where she revealed she's been hospitalised with 'so much pain' that she's 'screaming'. On the show's Tuesday episode, the Married … With Children star told her listeners that she decided to go straight to the hospital while on a flight back from Europe, where she visited family, Page Six reports. 'I'm staying here because I want answers. I want every test that you can possibly think of or ones that you haven't even thought of, and I want them done,' she told her co-host Jamie-Lynn Sigler. Christina Applegate revealed she had been hospitalised and is suffering from 'so much pain' in the latest episode of her MeSsy podcast. Picture:for Critics Choice Association The next day, she recalled waking up and feeling like 'my appendix is bursting' after she felt excruciating pain on her side. 'So much pain. I'm screaming, and they ordered me an emergency CT at two in the morning,' Applegate continued. The tests concluded that she had a kidney infection that has since spread to her other kidney. 'I'm just gonna be here,' she said of her hospital stay. 'Because of this kidney infection, I have to have intravenous antibiotics right now. And that's where we're at.' The actor with Anthony Anderson at the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards on January 15, 2024. Picture:/AFP Doctors questioned if the 53-year-old – who announced she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in August 2021 – had acquired a urinary tract infection and if her wiping technique was the reason behind it.

The 53-year-old said she was 'holding in a bag o' tears right now'. Picture: Jean-Baptiste Lacroix/AFP 'I sometimes fall into the nurse's arms like a freako, just like, crying.'

Kris Jenner called out for having ‘six toes' in alleged Photoshop fail
Don't miss out on the headlines from Entertainment. Followed categories will be added to My News. Kris Jenner was called out after seemingly sprouting a sixth toe. The reality star's feet raised eyebrows as she shared photos from her mum MJ's 91st birthday lunch at The Ivy in Beverly Hills, as reported by Page Six. The 69-year-old rocked a chic Oscar de la Renta gown and accessorised with a matching cardigan, gold purse and open-toed sandals in the pictures – which revealed an alleged Photoshop fail, prompting eagle-eyed fans to sound off in the comments on Instagram. Kris Jenner was called out after fans spotted an apparent sixth toe in her Instagram photos. Picture: Instagram/@krisjenner 'You have 6 toes??' one user wrote, while another quipped, '6 toe steppa.' 'Does she have 6 toes or am I trippin?' a third asked, to which a fourth responded, 'you are NOT trippin.' Others were more preoccupied with Jenner's dramatically youthful appearance. 'What in the Benjamin Button?' one person marvelled, with another adding, 'is it just me or did she get younger?' A representative for Jenner did not immediately return Page Six's request for comment. Jenner wore a chic Oscar de la Renta dress with a matching cardigan and gold bag in the photos. Picture: Instagram/@krisjenner '6 toe steppa,' one follower quipped. Picture: Instagram/@krisjenner This is nowhere near the first time the family has been roasted for a suspected Photoshop fail, having been called out on multiple occasions for various photo-related reasons. In a 2019 ad for their perfume collaboration, Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner were both ridiculed for seemingly having six toes on their feet. In the KKW Fragrance campaign, the sisters wore co-ordinating asymmetric pastel bodysuits and translucent open-toed heels. At the time, a representative for Kim told Page Six that the six-toe illusion was not a Photoshop faux pas, but instead the result of the sideways angle of the Skims founder's foot. In 2019, sisters Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner were called out for the same reason. Picture: Instagram/@kimkardashian Other infamous Kardashian-Jenner Photoshop gaffes include the 2021 cousin swap when Kim admitted she pasted niece True Thompson's face onto her other niece Stormi Webster's body in a photo from Disneyland alongside her own daughter Chicago West. 'The original (Disneyland) pics were Stormi!' she wrote via Instagram Stories after a TikTok user called out the switch. 'However I asked @kyliejenner if I could post them and she said (crying emoji) she wasn't really feeling posting at the moment and so I respect that! But I wasn't going to mess up my IG feed. Chi was wearing pink and it matched perfectly.' A year later, in 2022, Kim was accused of Photoshopping her own leg in a photo promoting a Skims bikini – and she hastily deleted the photo. Khloe Kardashian was called out for a similar apparent leg edit in 2023, and Kourtney Kardashian once faced criticism after her backside appeared unnaturally large in an animal-print robe.
