Taylor Swift and NFL player Travis Kelce have been making headlines as their relationship continues to blossom. The couple went public with their romance in September, following Kelce's public pursuit of the singer through his podcast.
While fans of Swift are enjoying the openness of their relationship, some concerns have been raised about the football player's comments regarding their romance.
During a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal, Kelce openly discussed his relationship with Swift. He mentioned that someone had played the role of a matchmaker, bringing them together.
However, he also revealed that he became guarded with the media after their relationship became public, emphasizing the importance of not saying anything that might push Swift away.
On a recent episode of The View, co-host Sunni Hostin expressed her reservations about Kelce's comments. She mentioned that some of the things he said raised "red flags" for her, particularly his fear of offending Swift. Hostin questioned whether he was hiding something, as she believes in being open about the good, the bad, and the ugly in a relationship.
The View hosts call out Travis Kelce's "red flags":
Hostin's co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin came to Kelce's defense, acknowledging his efforts to pursue Swift. However, Hostin remained skeptical, wondering why he felt the need to be so cautious in his public statements about the relationship.
The discussion on The View also delved into the highly public nature of Swift and Kelce's romance. Some panelists speculated that this level of publicity could lead people to believe that Kelce might be using the relationship to set up his post-NFL career.
Sarah Haines, another co-host, pointed out a moment in the interview that raised concerns. Kelce admitted to thinking about retirement, with the quote, "He thinks about it nonstop, more than anyone could ever imagine."
Given Kelce's significant presence in the football world, the co-hosts discussed how transitioning to "Taylor Swift Land" could be seen as a strategic career move.
Expressing her concerns, Griffin added: "It is hard at [Taylor's] level of celebrity to find people with the right intentions. He seems like a very nice guy and I root for them but I do think she has to be careful of that."
As Swift and Kelce's romance continues to captivate the public, the co-hosts of The View are not alone in considering the potential complexities of high-profile relationships in the world of celebrities.
