Why Kylie Kelce Refused to Eat Taylor Swift’s Home-Cooked Meal—The Real Reason Will Surprise You!
OPINION: This article may contain commentary which reflects the author's opinion.
Kylie Kelce recently cleared the air about why she didn’t eat a home-cooked meal prepared by Taylor Swift, and the reason is far from what fans might expect! While some might have speculated drama or tension, the reality is much more relatable.
No Bad Blood Between Kylie Kelce and Taylor Swift
During a recent episode of Call Her Daddy, Kylie, 32, opened up about a double date with Taylor Swift, her husband Jason Kelce, and brother-in-law Travis Kelce. When host Alex Cooper, 30, asked if she had ever tried one of Swift’s famous home-cooked meals, Kylie admitted she barely ate it.
“This is going to sound terrible,” she prefaced before explaining, “I didn’t really eat the meal because I was eight weeks pregnant. It was one of those where like nothing would sit with me.”
Kylie and Jason, who married in 2018, are already parents to three daughters—Wyatt, 5, Elliotte, 3, and Bennett, 23 months—and are now expecting their fourth child. Any mom who has experienced early pregnancy symptoms can likely relate to Kylie’s struggle with nausea and food aversions.
Kylie Knew About Travis and Taylor’s Romance Before the Public
Aside from discussing the meal mishap, Kylie also reflected on when she first learned that Travis was dating Swift.
“I will say we knew before everyone else knew,” she shared, revealing that she and Jason were aware of the relationship before Swift made her iconic appearance at the Kansas City Chiefs game on September 24, 2023. However, she playfully noted that their budding romance “did not hit the group chat.”
“Jason and I found out together. But we knew before, like, they hard launched with her going to a game,” she said.
Kylie and Taylor’s Surprising Connection
When asked what she and Swift bond over, Kylie revealed an unexpected connection: they both spent time at the same beach destinations in New Jersey.
“We grew up going to the same shore points,” she shared. “Her family was like Sea Isle, Stone Harbor. And that’s, like, the exact areas that I grew up going to. I’ve gone to Sea Isle City my whole life.”
Kylie Addresses Rumors About Her First Meeting with Taylor
Another hot topic Kylie addressed was the rumors surrounding her first-ever meeting with Swift at the Chiefs’ game against the Buffalo Bills on January 21, 2024.
“People are deeply disturbed by this… There was all of this stuff leading up to it about, ‘Well, why haven’t they met?’ ‘They’re avoiding each other,’” she recounted, before shutting down the speculation.
“I’m not avoiding anyone. I’m more than happy to meet someone, especially someone that Travis is dating,” Kylie clarified.
She added that meeting Swift on that particular game day was no big deal, especially since it took her nearly a year to meet Travis when she and Jason first started dating.
“And she’s busy,” Kylie joked, referencing Swift’s rigorous Eras Tour schedule.
What’s Next for Taylor and Travis?
Swift and Travis first made headlines as a couple in September 2023, confirming their romance the following month when they stepped out hand in hand at a Saturday Night Live afterparty. Since then, the pop icon has been a staple at Chiefs games, even attending Super Bowl LIX, where Kansas City faced off against the Philadelphia Eagles.
As the dust settles from both the football season and Swift’s record-breaking tour, sources say the couple is looking forward to spending some well-deserved downtime together.
“Their lives have been a whirlwind since they first started dating,” a source told PEOPLE. “Things seem great between them, and they’re incredibly happy together.”
While Kylie may not have been able to enjoy Taylor Swift’s home cooking that night, there’s clearly nothing but love and support within the Kelce-Swift family circle. And who knows? Maybe there’s another dinner date in the future—this time without the morning sickness!
