Teddy Swims Sings Breakup in Reverse
10 Jul
Summary
- Teddy Swims released a new song about his recent breakup.
- The song is inspired by his split from Raiche Wright.
- Swims and Wright are coparenting their young son.

Teddy Swims, a two-time Grammy nominee, has released his new single, "Break Up in Reverse," on July 10, 2026. The song is a deeply personal reflection on the end of his relationship with Raiche Wright, with whom he shares a 12-month-old son. Swims confirmed that the track is autobiographical and draws inspiration from the concept of a song playing backward.
He explained that the chorus, "Say goodbye to me in the beginning and love me in the end," captures the essence of wishing to undo a failed relationship. Swims first spoke about his breakup with Wright, who is from Massachusetts, in April 2026 at Stagecoach.
Wright has also publicly shared her feelings about the separation, most recently on July 7, 2026. She described the difficulty of adjusting to coparenting and splitting time with their child, calling it the hardest reality she has faced.
