Travis Kelce Dodges Marriage Question with Taylor Swift at Charity Event
Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce found himself in the spotlight at the annual Big Slick Celebrity Weekend charity event in Kansas City, Missouri, where comedian Jason Sudeikis playfully prodded him about his relationship status with pop sensation Taylor Swift.
In a quirky reenactment of the famous SNL skit Bill Swerski’s Super Fans, Sudeikis cheekily asked Kelce, ‘When are you going to make an honest woman out of her?’ alluding to the ongoing speculation surrounding Kelce and Swift.
The crowd erupted with cheers at the question, as Kelce chuckled awkwardly, opting to keep mum on the topic, leaving the audience hanging.
Sudeikis humorously quipped, ‘Taylor doesn’t need to be working anymore,’ in jest referencing a recent controversy involving Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker‘s comments on marriage and ambitions during a commencement speech at Benedictine College.
Kelce, known for his prowess on the football field, deftly side-stepped the persistent questioning, responding with a jovial, ‘Guys, you’re really pushing it,’ amidst the playful banter on stage.
Adding to the lighthearted banter, the comedians suggested that perhaps Swift could foot the bill for a new stadium, playfully teasing Kelce about the potential financial support from his high-profile girlfriend.
Amidst the comedic exchanges, Kelce maintained his composure, indicating that such grand gestures were not on the cards, with the football star firmly asserting, ‘That ain’t happening.’
Rumors of Kelce’s relationship with Taylor Swift first surfaced during the summer of 2023, with the couple later making their public debut in September last year at a Kansas City Chiefs game against the Chicago Bears, solidifying their status as one of Hollywood’s favorite power couples.
