After weeks of being the toast of the NFL (and pop culture), Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is now having to deal with the dark side of fame.
As is always the case, internet sleuths have gone back and taken a look at Travis Kelce’s history online and discovered that he did something many Taylor Swift fans don’t like.
The focus now is on some old comments Kelce made on his and his brother Jason’s New Heights podcast in February.
“I gotta start breeding. I gotta start breeding,” Travis joked with his brother and mom, Donna Kelce, during the Feb. 6 episode.
“Alright mom, answer the question, who are you saving?” Jason asked his mom, wanting her to choose between him and Travis.
Jason then reminded her that if she didn’t choose him, his kids would grow up without a father.
“I gotta start breeding. I gotta start breeding,” Travis then interjected with a big laugh. “All the breeders out there…
“I’m going to find a breeder and I’m going to get kids so that mom can love me again.”
That was all it took to ruffle the feathers of numerous Taylor Swift fans. Especially since in a recent report by Life & Style a source said, “They’re already making plans for the future. He and Taylor have even talked about kids. Travis wants them in the next year or so, and Taylor, of course, is all in. He’s exactly the guy she’s been waiting for!”
Forever grateful that Joe Alwyn kept to himself and is private. It's what makes Travis Kelce's statements from earlier this year about "finding a breeder" cringe. You are free to say what you want but are not free from the consequences of doing so. Women are not objects.

“Women are not baby making machines, women are more than the man they are dating, we are more than marriage,” read another comment on X (formerly Twitter).
“And he seems to be a swell but but not for nothing I would definitely be a little concerned if my friend’s new significant other joked about needing to find a breeder and apparently wants them to have kids while they’re at the top of the their career,”someone else wrote.
