Nick Wright recently found himself at the center of a media whirlwind following his remarks about his friendship with Travis Kelce and his relationship with Taylor Swift. Wright’s candid comments sparked headlines suggesting a rift, prompting him to address these narratives head-on.
Nick Wright on His Relationship With Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift
The controversy began when Wright mentioned on his podcast, “What’s Wright? with Nick Wright,” that he and Kelce hadn’t “talked talked” since the NFL star’s relationship with Swift became serious. This offhand remark was quickly picked up by various media outlets, leading to sensational headlines implying that Swift had driven a wedge between the two friends. Wright was quick to refute these claims, labeling them as “total horses***.”
In an effort to set the record straight, Wright elaborated on the nature of his friendship with Kelce. He explained, “I said we don’t really talk during the seasons. We have a kind of annual event of being able to get together at the Chiefs’ Super Bowl parade. But two years ago, the parade was cut short by a tragic shooting. And this year, the parade was canceled by the Philadelphia Eagles. So those two times, we didn’t talk.”
Wright emphasized that there was no underlying tension between him and Kelce and they share a “great relationship.” He further expressed his frustration over the media’s portrayal: “I am so incredibly, oddly frustrated by this because I think it is so recklessly unfair to Travis Kelce.”

As of now, Kelce has not publicly commented on the matter. However, amid all the media chatter, Swift and Kelce are cherishing their time together away from the spotlight.
Kelce, Swift Embrace Normalcy Away From Spotlight
Since the conclusion of Swift’s record-breaking “The Eras Tour” in December 2024 and Kelce’s NFL season in February 2025, the couple has prioritized privacy and simplicity.
They’ve been spending quality time at home, engaging in everyday activities that many couples enjoy. “They like to cuddle on the couch and watch movies, play board games, spend time with family, cook dinner together, and just hang out,” an insider shared with Page Six.
This quiet time together has been a welcome change for Swift, especially after the nonstop spotlight of her global tour. Both she and Kelce know their careers will soon pull them in different directions, so they’re really making the most of this chance just to be with each other.
Even with all the attention that follows them, they’ve been intentional about carving out space for their relationship, keeping things grounded and personal. With training camp just around the corner for Kelce, they’re soaking in these low-key moments while they last. It’s clear that, no matter how hectic their lives get, they’re prioritizing what matters most: each other.
