Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce is reportedly very upset over recent remarks made by Donald Trump about his girlfriend, Taylor Swift. According to the Daily Mail, Kelce is privately “livid” after Trump made a post on Truth Social mocking Swift’s appearance and popularity, saying she is no longer “hot” since he claimed to dislike her.
Trump’s comments follow years of tension between him and Swift, especially after she publicly supported Joe Biden during the 2020 election. A source close to Kelce shared that the tight end is frustrated but is choosing to stay silent publicly to avoid creating more controversy.
“Travis wants to defend Taylor, but he knows speaking out would only make things worse,” the source said. Instead, Kelce is reportedly using his anger as motivation while preparing for the upcoming NFL season.
There’s also some concern that Kelce’s reaction could create friction in the Chiefs’ locker room, especially since quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany have reportedly shown support for Trump. However, the insider emphasized that there’s no tension between Kelce and his teammates because they avoid discussing politics.
Kelce is said to be most frustrated that Swift, who is not involved in politics at the moment, is being dragged into political conversations by someone who once held the highest office in the country. Meanwhile, Swift is also dealing with unrelated legal issues, having recently been subpoenaed in a lawsuit involving her former friend Blake Lively and actor Justin Baldoni.
