NFL star Travis Kelce appears to have hit “unfollow” on someone pretty famous in Taylor Swift’s inner circle—and fans are all over it.
Internet sleuths noticed that the 35-year-old Kansas City Chiefs tight end no longer follows Ryan Reynolds on Instagram. That small click is raising big eyebrows, especially as rumors swirl around Taylor Swift’s friendship with Blake Lively, Ryan’s wife.
There’s some added context to this unfollowing. Taylor’s name surfaced in legal drama tied to Blake’s lawsuit with actor Justin Baldoni, where alleged texts referenced the pop star. Fans have speculated that the once-tight bond between Taylor and Blake might have cooled off, and now they’re wondering whether Travis’s move reflects a deeper rift.
Evidence of the unfollow? On Travis’s follower list, Ryan doesn’t appear—even though fans say Travis did follow him recently. He’d even liked a Ryan post earlier this year, in 2024.
Meanwhile, Ryan is still following Travis as of the time of writing.
It’s unclear whether there’s actual tension behind the scenes or if this was just an innocent bit of digital housekeeping. Still, the unfollow hasn’t gone unnoticed in the Swiftie universe.
