Travis Kelce handles "wife" comment about Taylor Swift with a playful response

During a recent episode of the New Heights podcast, Travis Kelce had a lighthearted moment when a guest referred to his fiancee, Taylor Swift, as his "wife." While discussing the possibility of returning to the University of Cincinnati for a final semester of basketball eligibility, head coach Jared Calhoun joked that Kelce would need to "ask his wife" for permission. The Kansas City Chiefs star smoothly played off the slip of the tongue, jokingly replying, "Sweetie, I’m going back to school."

The playful exchange comes amid reports that the high-profile couple may tie the knot before the NFL training camp begins in July. Although the pair is currently focused on their busy careers—with Kelce recently signing a one-year contract extension—they continue to show immense public support for one another. While specific wedding details remain private, the couple is reportedly leaning toward live music for their big day, which is expected to feature a star-studded guest list.
