Travis Kelce has heartbreaking response to Donald Trump taking ‘dig’ at Taylor Swift
“It just hasn’t been a good week” for the pair, according to an insider source who explained the situation.
Following a tough 40-22 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, February 9, Kansas City Chiefs’ star tight end Travis Kelce has been facing a rough patch. With the defeat still fresh, the latest controversy involving Donald Trump’s dig at Taylor Swift has only added to the challenges he’s dealing with.
Not only did Travis Kelce endure the sting of a crushing championship loss, but he also had to watch his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, face an onslaught of boos from the crowd. When the jumbotron flashed her image, what should have been a simple moment of recognition erupted into jeers, leaving Swift visibly upset.
To make matters worse, President Donald Trump seized the moment to mock the situation, adding fuel to an already painful night. Swift’s frustration was clear, and for Kelce, it was an even tougher pill to swallow.
A source close to the Chiefs’ tight end told MailOnline, “Travis was aware of Taylor being booed, and he felt helpless. Seeing the look on her face really hit him hard.”
Despite battling his own heartbreaking defeat, Travis Kelce’s biggest concern was still Taylor Swift. He never stops looking out for her, and witnessing her get booed in a stadium packed with Eagles fans only made the night more painful.
An insider revealed, “It devastated him. He could see how much it hurt her, and that hit him hard. Even though he was already struggling with the loss, knowing Taylor was upset made everything worse.”
The source continued, “It’s clear that many Eagles fans see her as a traitor—she’s a Pennsylvania native and even wore Eagles gear before dating Travis. Now, they’re letting her know where their loyalty lies.”
Adding insult to injury, President Donald Trump took to his platform, Truth Social, to mock Taylor Swift’s rough night.
In a boastful post, the 78-year-old Republican leader wrote, “Trump receives massive cheers at the Super Bowl while Taylor Swift receives boos. The world is healing!”
He didn’t stop there. Doubling down, he added, “The only person who had a more difficult night than the Kansas City Chiefs was Taylor Swift. As she was leaving the stadium, she was booed.”
For Travis Kelce, already reeling from a crushing loss, the added jab at his girlfriend only made things worse.
“MAGA is very unforgiving!”
According to the MailOnline source, Travis Kelce was deeply disappointed by Trump’s remarks. “Travis believes that it was unnecessary for Trump to take a dig at her, especially after he voiced that he was honored for a president to be there.”
Coming off a tough week—with Taylor missing out on a Grammy win and Travis falling short in the biggest game of the year—the couple has certainly endured their fair share of setbacks.
However, despite the losses, one thing remains certain: Travis finds immense happiness in the love they share, knowing that at the end of the day, they have each other.
Before Trump’s controversial remarks, Travis Kelce had expressed his enthusiasm about the president’s presence at the game. When asked what he thought of the president’s participation, Kelce responded, “I think, you know, regardless of who the president is, I know that I am excited because it is the biggest game of my life, you know, and having the president there, you know, it’s the best country in the world.” He went on to add, “I know that I am excited. That would be really cool, wouldn’t it?”
Though Kelce’s response was positive, Trump’s “dig” at Taylor Swift during the event seemed to sour the atmosphere. Tyla has since attempted to get a comment from Kelce’s representatives, but as of now, there’s no word on the matter.
