Things took a turn for the worse when Swift announced a collaboration with Ice Spice amid her relationship with Healy. Many fans saw the move as calculating and an attempt to help absolve her boyfriend of his sins.

Besides his racist jabs at Ice Spice, Healy was also accused of being an anti-semite after a video clip of him throwing the Nazi salute at a performance surfaced amid his relationship with Swift.

Speaking on his Nazi hand sign, Healy claimed at the time that it was satire and his way of calling out people for being Nazis.

The singer recently commented on the backlash he has received from fans, calling them "deluded" and "a bit mental" as his actions are all a joke meant to bait people.

Healy said of his critics to The New Yorker, "But it doesn't actually matter. Nobody is sitting there at night slumped at their computer, and their boyfriend comes over and goes, 'What's wrong, darling?' and they go, 'It's just this thing with Matty Healy.' That doesn't happen."

He continued, "If it does, you're either deluded or you are, sorry, a liar. You're either lying that you are hurt, or you're a bit mental for being hurt. It's just people going, 'Oh, there's a bad thing over there, let me get as close to it as possible so you can see how good I am.'"

Healy added, "And I kind of want them to do that, because they're demonstrating something so base level."
