Kristin Cavallari Tells Travis Kelce 'I Was in Love with You' amid Taylor Swift Rumor

Nineteen years ago, Kristin Cavallari made her debut on our television as the villain in a love triangle with Stephen Colletti and Lauren Conrad on Laguna Beach.

It appears we might be headed for a new love triangle.

Well, OK, not really.

But Cavallari did reveal her "TV crush" on Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce as he's been rumored to be hanging out with pop star Taylor Swift.

"You've probably heard the term 'TV crush,' right?" Cavallari told Kelce on her podcast. "Like, you know what a TV crush is? It's when you see someone on TV, you probably haven't met them yet but you just have this like little crush on them? You were 100 percent my TV crush when this show was on.

"I was in love with you."

Cavallari said her crush on Kelce began during his Catching Kelce reality show in 2016. She was married to former NFL quarterback Jay Cutler at the time, with the pair later divorcing in 2022.

It's clear Cavallari's crush was more tongue-in-cheek than an actual romantic pursuit, with both parties having a good laugh on the podcast.

Kelce, who publicly admitted he wanted to pursue Swift on his own podcast in July, has been linked to the pop superstar through unconfirmed rumors in recent weeks. NFL commentators have even gotten in on the action by referencing her songs when discussing Kelce.

Neither Kelce nor Swift have confirmed rumors they're dating.
