A new report reveals how Travis Kelce felt about Donald Trump’s attack on Taylor Swift following the Kansas City Chiefs loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl 59.
Trump was at Super Bowl 59 in New Orleans, Louisiana, making him the first sitting President of the United States to attend a Super Bowl game. The Eagles soundly defeated Travis Kelce’s Chiefs 40-22, denying the defending champions of a three-peat.
The crowd largely booed Swift (Eagles supporters vastly outnumbered Kansas City fans) when her face showed up on the Caesars Superdome jumbotron. As Trump is known to have issues with any celebrity who publicly criticizes him, he unsurprisingly took a shot at Swift on his Truth Social account after the game:

According to a report from the Daily Mail, Travis Kelce was upset about the crowd’s treatment of Swift at the game, as well as Trump’s “unnecessary” shot. Here’s what a source close to the future Hall of Famer told the outlet:
“He always protects her and it broke his heart. He was already having a tough night and the fact that the stadium was predominantly Eagles fans didn’t help. Travis knows that this hurt her and anyone can see this.
It’s clear to many that the Eagles fans feel she is a traitor of sorts – being from Pennsylvania and even wearing Eagles gear prior to dating him. 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.
After Taylor being shut out for a Grammy and Travis losing the biggest game of the year it just hasn’t been a good week for them. But he knows that even though this is not a happy ending to the season having her love gives him so much joy.”
Swift went after Trump on Twitter (now X) back in 2020 and vowed that he’d be voted out, which he was. The Grammy Award-winning singer endorsed Kamala Harris for the 2024 election, and though he won the presidential seat anyway, it’s obvious that Trump can’t and won’t let go of his grudge against Swift.
