Travis Kelce’s neighbor has dished on the tight end’s high-profile relationship with Taylor Swift.
Wes Bergmann, known for his appearances on reality shows like “The Traitors” and “The Challenge,” recently shared his thoughts on the romance during the Feb. 6 episode of “The Social Game” podcast.
Bergmann boldly predicted that the Kansas City Chiefs tight end is “going to have about 12 Taylor Swift songs written about him.” The MTV star, 41, also dished on the couple’s relationship timeline. He revealed that the NFL star and singer were dating for “months” before they hard launched their relationship.
According to Bergmann, he was the “first person” to find out about it.
“I beat the validating of her showing up to games and stuff by, like, six months,” the MTV alumni said.

When he first learned about the budding romance, Bergmann tried to tell “Survivor” alum Michele Fitzgerald about it, but she didn’t believe him at first.
“She’s like she only goes for artists,” Bergmann recalled Fitzgerald saying.
“I did say that,” Fitzgerald agreed, chiming in on the podcast. “Just based on her track record, she loves a budding artist… Usually, they’re a bit scrawnier… They’re kind of like womanizers,” Fitzgerald said.
“Yeah, he’s not scrawny,” Bergmann replied.
After Kelce and Swift’s relationship became public, Bergmann said the paparazzi mistakenly thought he was the Chiefs star while driving his oversized “monster truck.”
“We live inside a gated community, and I was exiting the gated community in my brand new beautiful truck recently,” Bergmann explained, adding, “I’ve got a sick truck, and they got a bad angle.”
“They’re like only Travis Kelce would drive this truck,” he added.
According to Bergmann, Kelce does have a truck, but “his is better.”
“He’s got the electric Hummer,” Bergmann noted.
The MTV reality star described Kelce as an “enigma” on the podcast. “On one hand, he’s, like, this big, tough football player.”
“To me, he’s the boy next door.”

Bergmann apologizes for commenting on Travis Kelce’s relationship
Following the podcast’s release, Bergmann apologized for discussing Kelce and Swift’s relationship.
In a statement posted on X on March 4, the MTV alum said, “Omg y’all I’m so sorry and confused.”
“Everything being reported on is none of my business. My contribution to this was taken out of context and said in what I thought was relative obscurity, but it obviously wasn’t,” Bergmann wrote.
The reality star added that Kecle “moved in November, that’s all I know.”
“That was the intention of the comment. Again it was taken out of context but I shouldn’t be talking about it anyway. So consider this the last time I do,” he added.
Omg y’all I’m so sorry and confused.
Everything being reported on is none of my business. My contribution to this was taken out of context and said in what I thought was relative obscurity, but it obviously wasn’t.
He moved in November, that’s all I know. I told Michele, who…

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s relationship timeline
While Bergmann claims Kelce and Swift were secretly dating for months before going public, the couple’s relationship didn’t go viral until Sept. 24, 2023, when Swift showed up at Arrowhead stadium to support the Chiefs tight end in his game against the Chicago Bears.
Earlier that year, Kelce attended one of Swift’s Eras Tour concerts at the same venue and tried to give her a friendship bracelet, which is a signature tradition among her Swiftie fans.
“If you’re up on Taylor Swift concerts, there are friendship bracelets. I received a bunch of them being there, but I wanted to give Taylor Swift one with my number on it,” Kelce said on a July 2023 episode of his New Heights podcast.
However, Kelce didn’t get a chance to talk to Swift before the concert. “She doesn’t meet anybody, or at least she didn’t want to meet me, so I took it personal,” he said.
That’s all in the past now, as the couple have been an item ever since.
