NFL analyst Bill Simmons delighted fans on Sunday night when he let slip that Taylor Swift is ‘having a kid’ with her fiancé, Travis Kelce.
Bill was reflecting on Travis’ career with the Kansas City Chiefs following the team’s loss to the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, which dashed their Super Bowl hopes for 2026.

“And he’s just kind of running around this [expletive] Titans game, trying not to get hurt. Fake an injury. Just fake an injury and end the thing.” While it is unclear whether there is any truth to Bill’s comment, both Taylor and Travis have previously discussed the possibility of having kids.

The couple got engaged in August, and there is no word yet on when they will walk down the aisle. Travis’ NFL season will come to an abrupt end on January 4, when his team plays the Las Vegas Raiders.
The Chiefs suffered a devastating loss against the Los Angeles Chargers on December 14, after their star quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, tore his ACL during the game. The knee injury will likely take 12 months to fully heal, meaning that Patrick is out of the 2026 season.

“I think it’s a unique time in my life, and unfortunately, I got three games left, and I know when the season ends this year, typically we go into it, and we don’t know when it’s gonna end, and that’s the beauty of it.”

The “Cruel Summer” singer told Marie Claire in 2012 that she was looking forward to being a mom. “I want a bunch of [children] running around, minimum four. I want to wait a while, but the idea of pouring everything you are into another person when you become a parent has always been amazing to me,” she said.

It’s impossible not to picture certain scenarios and how you would try to convince them that they have a normal life when, inevitably, there will be strange men pointing giant cameras at them from the time they are babies.”
Travis is a doting uncle to his four nieces, Wyatt, Elliotte, Bennett and Finnley, whom his brother, Jason Kelce, shares with his podcaster wife, Kylie Kelce.
