As his question garners laughs, comedianNicole Byerjokes that it’s because she only has “six friends.”

However,Vanderpump RulesalumLala Kentseems to think the audience is laughing for a different reason.

“Travis, do you know anyone who likes friendship bracelets and things like that?” the reality star, 34, asks as her competitors jot down their answers.

The NFL star slyly replied: “I know a few. Might have converted them into a Chiefs fan. I don’t know. We’ll see.”

Kelce and the pop star, also 35, have been dating for more than a year since going public with their relationship in October 2023.

However, the three-time Super Bowl champion previously confessed that meeting the “Love Story” singer almost didn’t happen.

During a July 2023 episode of theNew Heights with Jason and Travis Kelcepodcast he co-hosts with his older brotherJason Kelce, Travis admitted he was “disappointed” after his plan to slip Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number on it didn’t work out.

“I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,” Travis told his brother, adding that he was “a little butt hurt.”

“I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her,” he continued.

Friendship bracelets had become a staple accessory during her Eras Tour — so much so that the New Orleans Superdome welcomed the Grammy winner witha giant friendship braceletduring a three-night concert run in October.

“If you’re up on Taylor Swift concerts, there are friendship bracelets, and I received a bunch of them being there, but I wanted to give Taylor Swift one with my number on it,” Travis said during the podcast.
