Taylor Swift has officially shut down rumors that she secretly tied the knot with NFL star Travis Kelce. And she didn’t need a press release to do it. Just two words: “My boyfriend.”
The 14-time Grammy winner made the statement during a surprise visit to a children’s hospital in Hollywood, Florida, over the weekend. While chatting with one of the young patients, Swift casually mentioned her reason for being in town.
“My boyfriend is training here, so I just thought I’d come and see how you’re doing,” she said in a sweet moment captured on video and shared to X (formerly Twitter).

And just like that, the marriage rumors vanished into thin air.
Table 13, a Wedding Invite, and a Swiftie Frenzy
Speculation about a secret wedding had reached a fever pitch earlier this month after fans spotted Taylor and Travis Kelce on the guest list for NFL star Cole Kmet’s wedding. One photo, showing a letter addressed to the couple and a seating chart placing them at Table 13, Swift’s favorite number, was all it took to ignite a firestorm online.
Some fans even theorized the pair had already gotten married, quietly taking each other’s last names ahead of their second anniversary this summer.
But Swift’s casual, off-the-cuff remark in Florida appears to clear it all up. She’s still calling him her boyfriend.

Engaged? Married? Not Yet — But It’s Getting Serious
While they may not be husband and wife, Swift and Kelce’s relationship is clearly going strong. The couple began dating in summer 2023, and insiders have suggested they’re already thinking about the future.
Back in February, a source told Us Weekly that the couple is “on the same page about taking the next step [and getting engaged].” Another source in December said Swift “does feel like Travis is The One,” but emphasized that “jumping in is not her style.”

“Marriage is a big deal, and she wants [it to be] forever,” the insider added.
Swift Keeps It Simple — and That Speaks Volumes
For a star who’s spent her entire career fielding headlines about her love life, Taylor Swift knows the power of saying just enough. Her two-word confirmation, “my boyfriend”, may have been spontaneous, but it couldn’t have been more on-brand: graceful, grounded, and crystal clear.
No publicist. No Instagram statement. Just Taylor, doing what she does best, letting the words speak for themselves.
