Denise Welch Breaks Down: Son Matty Healy's Hug Amid Taylor Swift Drama

SHOCKING FAMILY DRAMA: DENISE WELCH TEARS UP OVER TAYLOR SWIFT FEUD

In a shocking turn of events, Denise Welch, 67, was seen visibly upset and in tears while out with her rocker son Matty Healy, 36, in West Hollywood this week. The Loose Women star's emotional breakdown comes after she faced backlash from Taylor Swift's devoted fanbase over her comments about the singer-songwriter.

According to sources close to the family, Denise's distress was not related to the Taylor Swift feud, but rather a "family matter" that Matty was consoling his mother about. However, insiders claim that Denise's tears were also triggered by the intense scrutiny she faced from Taylor's fans after making a subtle dig at the singer's tendency to write songs about her famous exes.

Denise's comments, made during an appearance on Bravo's Watch What Happens Live with host Andy Cohen, sparked a heated debate among Swifties and non-Swifties alike. When asked about Taylor's latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, Denise infamously quipped: "Being her mother-in-law is a role that I am glad I lost." However, she quickly clarified her statement, insisting: "Not that I have anything against [Taylor] at all! It was just – it was tricky."

But what sparked the initial controversy? Sources close to Taylor claim that Denise's comments were a thinly veiled attack on the singer-songwriter. Insiders reveal that Denise was referring to Taylor's well-documented habit of writing songs about her high-profile exes, including Matty himself.

The drama between Denise and Taylor began brewing during an awkward interview exchange last month, where Denise seemed to take a sly swipe at Taylor's reputation for penning songs about her famous partners. However, it appears that the mother-daughter-in-law dynamic is still complicated, with sources suggesting that Denise's comments were not entirely innocent.

As the drama unfolds, insiders close to Taylor claim that she is taking the high road and ignoring Denise's snide remarks. "Taylor has no plans to issue a scathing response," reveals an insider. "Instead, she'll just shake it off – after all, as she always says: 'You need to calm down'!"

But what about Matty Healy? The 1975 frontman is caught in the middle of the controversy, with his fiancée Gabbriette Bechtel reportedly present during his mother's emotional breakdown. Insiders claim that Matty is trying to stay neutral, but it seems clear that his mother's actions have sparked tension within their family.

The drama between Denise and Taylor began brewing months ago, when the singer-songwriter's relationship with Matty came under scrutiny. The pair dated briefly in 2023 after Taylor split from her long-time boyfriend Joe Alwyn, but their romance was short-lived due to Matty's reputation for making off-color comments about women.

Sources close to Taylor reveal that she has been trying to distance herself from the drama surrounding Matty's antics, which included making a joke about rapper Ice Spice and sparking outrage among Swifties. Insiders claim that Taylor is focused on her music and her blossoming relationship with NFL star Travis Kelce, rather than engaging in petty squabbles with her ex's mother.

As for Denise Welch, it remains to be seen how she will navigate the aftermath of her comments. Will she continue to defend her stance, or try to patch things up with Taylor? One thing is certain – this family drama has all the ingredients of a juicy celebrity scandal!
