Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Find Wedding Guest Drama and ‘Trash-Talking’ ‘Pretty Disheartening’

Wedded blitz! Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are having a rough time dealing with all the drama that followed their dream nuptials, a source tells Star.

“They are typically very good at blocking out the noise, but to have all these nasty stories coming out about his teammates being jealous and trash-talking them is pretty disheartening,” admits the source. “He’s got to go back to that locker room any day now and that’s bound to be uncomfortable because clearly there’s a lot of jealousy towards him.”

The Daily Mail reported that some of Kelce’s NFL ‘circle’ was upset over being invited to the star-studded Madison Garden wedding in New York City on Friday, July 3, but not the intimate rehearsal dinner on Thursday. Meanwhile, retired NFL player turned podcaster Will Compton said on Wake Up Barstool that he was “kind of flabbergasted” over being left off the guest list altogether before walking back his comments on X.

“They’re finding it quite exhausting keeping up with all the rumors and all the mischief that people are making,” the source says of the newlyweds, both 36. “Wasting time on that sort of nonsense isn’t pleasant at any time, but especially when they are trying to enjoy their first days as husband and wife.”

Shortly after tying the knot, Swift and Kelce jetted off to Southern California for his former teammate JuJu Smith-Schuster‘s wedding to Laura Kruk on Saturday, July 11.

“They did have a wonderful time,” shares the source. “That really helped to lift their spirits. It was a great reset, and so fun to be able to relive the whole wedding experience without all the pressure of being the bride and groom.”
