Matty Healy's mom Denise Welch opens up on his romance with Taylor Swift: ‘It was tricky'
Matty Healy's mother, British TV icon Denise Welch, is not hiding her feelings about her son's whirlwind 2023 romance with Taylor Swift or her Grammy-winning breakup album which seemingly followed. During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on July 24, Welch addressed Swift's album The Tortured Poets Department, which fans widely believed was inspired in part by her brief relationship with The 1975 frontman, said an E!Online report. When asked how she felt about the album, Welch replied with a pointed jab saying that she was glad she 'lost the role of being her mother-in-law'. Her comment, according to the report, drew gasps from the studio audience and she swiftly offered clarification, 'Not that I have anything against her at all; it was just tricky.' Welch, according to a People report, expressed frustration over the one-sided nature of the public celebrity breakups.

She said that Matty was very happy with 'his amazing fiancée Gabriella' who is gorgeous and added, 'We have moved on.' Meanwhile, Swift, 35, is in a high-profile relationship with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. Their romance which began in late 2023 has become the internet's favorite love story.

Cleo Laine, British jazz singer who performed with Ray Charles and Frank Sinatra, dies at 97
By William Schomberg Cleo Laine, British jazz singer who performed with Ray Charles and Frank Sinatra, dies at 97 LONDON, , 2025 - British jazz singer Cleo Laine, who performed with musical greats including Frank Sinatra and starred as an actor in London's West End and on Broadway, has died aged 97, the Guardian newspaper reported on Friday, citing a statement from her children Jacqui and Alec. Born to an English mother and a Jamaican father in a suburb of London in 1927, she initially worked as a hair-dresser, a hat-trimmer and a librarian. She married in 1946 and had a son while still a teenager. Driven on by her dream of becoming a singer, she divorced and got her big break in 1951, when she joined the band of English saxophonist and clarinettist John Dankworth at 24. Dankworth's band decided her name was too long - at the time she thought she had been born Clementine Campbell, though a passport application later revealed her mother had used her own surname Hitching on the birth certificate. The men of the Dankworth Seven band thought her name was too cumbersome for a poster, and that her nickname Clem was too cowboy-like. They settled on a new stage persona for her by drawing "Cleo" and "Laine" from hats. In 1958, she and Dankworth married. Their home became a magnet for London's jazz set: friends included stars from across the Atlantic such as Oscar Peterson and Ella Fitzgerald, Lester Young and Dizzy Gillespie. After acting as well as singing in Britain through the 1960s, Laine toured Australia in 1972 and performed at New York's Lincoln Centre. The recording of a further show, at Carnegie Hall, won her a Grammy. Recordings included "Porgy and Bess" with Ray Charles. In 1992 she appeared with Frank Sinatra for a series of shows at the Royal Albert Hall in London, but she was best known for her work with Dankworth's bands. He later became her musical director. The couple built their own auditorium in the grounds of their home near London and were friends with the late Princess Margaret, the sister of the late Queen Elizabeth II. Their two children went on to become musicians. Dankworth - who Laine described as being "joined at the hip" with her - died in 2010. Hours after his death, Laine performed a scheduled show in their auditorium, announcing the news about her husband only at the end of the concert.
