'Biased jerk': Tony Romo slammed as he reveals why he addressed Taylor Swift as Travis Kelce's 'wife'
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Tony Romo, a sports commentator and analyst, faced backlash recently when he clarified that his reference to Taylor Swift as Travis Kelce's 'wife' was meant as a joke.
As the romance between Swift and Kelce continues to flourish, rumors of an impending engagement have escalated. Romo unintentionally added fuel to the speculation when, during his commentary on Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce's games, he referred to Swift as Kelce's 'wife.'
Adding to the buzz, the 'Lover' singer and Kelce have captured the hearts of Swifties, earning the coveted title of 'America's IT couple.' This accolade comes after a memorable moment between the two following the Chiefs' win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, securing their spot in the Super Bowl.
In a moment captured by microphones, Kelce openly professed his love to Swift, marking the first time he has made such a declaration in public since the power couple started dating several months ago.
