Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has expressed his excitement for President Trump's attendance at Super Bowl LIX, despite the president's past public criticism of Kelce's girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
On Wednesday, January 5, the 35-year-old athlete shared his enthusiasm at a press conference, stating, "That's awesome. It's a great honor, I think you know, no matter who the president is, I know I'm excited because it's the biggest game of my life, you know, and having the president there -- it's the best country in the world -- and that's pretty cool."
This comes after President Trump made multiple comments criticizing Swift in the past. Kelce's reaction has sparked conversation about the potential for a reconciliation between the two, or if the athlete is simply prioritizing the excitement of the Super Bowl.
