Last month, fans had been urging Swift to ditch Healy after his controversial podcast comments from earlier in the year resurfaced.
Healy has been accused of racism for making comments about rapper Ice Spice – real name Isis Naija Gaston – during an appearance on The Adam Friedland Show podcast in February.

The podcast episode was later removed from both Spotify and Apple Music due to its objectionable content.
