2008 interview reveals that Taylor Swift's "But Daddy I Love Him" was inspired by a teenage date, not Matty Healy.

Taylor Swift's song "But Daddy I Love Him" from her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, was not inspired by a brief romance with The 1975's Matty Healy, as fans had speculated. A recently resurfaced 2008 interview reveals that the phrase "But daddy I love him" was used by a teenage Swift during an argument with her father about a teenage date, later inspiring her song Love Story.
