Travis Kelce might have hinted that he would change his last name after marrying Taylor Swift. The couple who announced their engagement in August 2025 is expected to tie the knot this year. Recently, podcasters discussed the couple’s relationship and whether the football star would take the pop icon’s last name. Subsequently, Kelce appears to have given his answer.
Travis Kelce shows his support for taking Taylor Swift’s last name in new post
At the Bussin’ With The Boys podcast, the hosts were talking about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce taking each other’s names after marriage. However, many believed the Kansas City Chiefs star might change their name, since Swift is more globally famous than he is. As such, one felt that if Kelce indeed picks the “Bad Blood” hitmaker’s last name, there won’t be Kelce brothers anymore.
Another individual suggested that the singer might go for Kelce-Swift. In the end, the group believed that Kelce would take up Travis Swift Kelce. Kelce seems to agree with the boys as he ended up liking the Instagram post. Recently, it was also reported that Swift wasn’t embarrassed by her fiancé chugging a beer at an NBA game. This is reportedly because the Grammy Award-winning singer loves Kelce for who he is, not his celebrity status.
“Taylor knows exactly who Travis is,” one source said with a laugh to Rob Shuter. They continued, “He’s loud, playful, emotional, sports-obsessed — and she adores every bit of it. There’s zero pretending in this relationship.” Another insider told the outlet, “People compare Travis to the polished, artistic men Taylor dated before, but that’s missing the point.” The individual further explained, “After years of complicated, image-conscious relationships, Travis feels refreshingly real. He’s confident, grounded, and completely comfortable in his own skin.”
Sources shared that authenticity has become a strong foundation for Swift and Kelce’s romance. “Taylor doesn’t have to manage Travis or shrink herself around him,” the insider stated. They added, “There’s no power struggle. They genuinely respect each other, and that balance is what makes this work.”
