The whole Fernando Alonso-Taylor Swift saga has finally met its end. A relief? Maybe. With hilarious puns during commentary and even Alonso playing around, it’s safe to say that the whole situation got a little out of hand.
However, the recent, more believable story is that the 1975 frontman Matt Healy is seeing the American pop star. In fact, he was spotted in the audience during the Nashville leg of her Eras Tour.

While the Alonso rumors were far from plausible in the first place, it was a fun time in F1. From TV presenters making jokes about the situation, Alonso making TikToks to her song, refusing to deny the rumors- everyone was talking about it. A small fan joke turned into a large fire of Taylor Swift references, and bizarre conspiracy theories.
The double champion had stated, “I usually keep my personal life apart from my professional life. I prefer not to comment on that.” A cheeky response from the driver, he later admitted he was playing along with his confusing social media activity. “I think I’ve always been funny and ironic on social media with my followers. “
Now, it all comes to an end as Healy takes over, and Alonso can continue to focus on his career-turning 2023 season. All good things come to an end.
Fans continue to live in Fernando Alonso-Taylor Swift fantasy
The Matt Healy rumors did pop the bubble most fans were living in. The entire conundrum was truly entertaining as absolutely no one could fathom a reality where Alonso was linked with Swift. Thus, fans held on to it as much as they could. As this fan describes it: “a comedown worse than any drugs could offer.”
taylor going from ‘dating’ fernando alonso to ‘dating’ matty healy in the span of a week is a comedown worse than any drugs could offer

The mantra? Deny, deny, deny. The F1 fanbase couldn’t afford to lose the best thing that has happened to them in years.

Other fans refused to put the rockstar in the same league as F1’s champion. A fan was even willing to pool some money to see the two battle it out old school.

However, there were some who let out a sigh of relief. The drama is now over and everything can now go back to normal.
I'm guessing the tabloid rumour that Taylor Swift has started going out with 1975 lead singer Matty Healy ends the rumour that she's dating Fernando Alonso and with it F1 journalists coming up with pun after pun in their commentary

As the Internet’s favorite rumor finally meets its end, the world moves on. Surely there will be a lot more where this came from, but hopefully, not something as conspicuously false.
