Travis Kelce is under fire from a section of Taylor Swift’s fans who were outraged over his like on a post that featured Donald Trump.
The post was from ex-ESPN host Sage Steele attending a UFC match last month. One of the photos in the carousel showed her meeting with the former U.S. president.
"What. A. Night. After years of covering @ufc at ESPN, I FINALLY got to see it live & in person. Game changer,” she captioned.
“THANK YOU @danawhite ... for EVERYTHING! Great people, great event, great fights! (Check out the last video - it's the final minute of the main card fight .. so intense!!!) ????????#ufc299.”
Given the divisiveness around Donald, Sage concluded her post by writing, "(Cue the divisive, close-minded thoughts and unfollows in 3...2...1... ????) #diversityofthought."
However, the firestorm was kicked off when the NFL star’s engagement was observed by some netizens.
"Not travis kelce liking a post with trump in it???", one person commented.
Another added, "I wasn't expecting travis kelce to be a trump supporter but here we are."
"Travis kelce likes TRUMP?" someone else shared.
"I wouldve never guessed this in a million years this is shocking news!! whats next? grass is green? the sun is a star???"
A fourth shared, "Travis Kelce has liked a post on instagram praising Donald Trump. I always knew this man had MAGA energy but now we have proof."
