Travis Kelce has become a dad just two months after marrying Taylor Swift but the Kansas City Chiefs star is not welcoming a human baby.
The NFL star has officially introduced the newest member of his family, a fluffy white Samoyed he shares with his wife, Taylor Swift.
Kelce showed off the dog in Tommy Hilfiger's Fall 2026 campaign, giving fans their first proper look at the couple's furry family members.
The dog, reportedly named Wendy, has been the subject of intense speculation among Swifties for months.
Fans first began wondering whether Swift and Kelce had secretly become dog parents after a photo from their July wedding appeared to show the couple holding a white puppy.
The mystery dog was later spotted traveling with Kelce and was photographed getting off Swift's private jet in Florida shortly after the couple's wedding.
Reports at the time suggested that Swift and Kelce had actually welcomed the dog months before getting married, meaning she was already part of their lives when they walked down the aisle.
Now Kelce has made it clear just how much he loves the new addition.
Speaking to Vogue about his Tommy Hilfiger campaign, the NFL star said his dog “lights up my day” and revealed that he was the one who suggested bringing her into the fashion shoot.
“She crushed it,” Kelce said of Samoyed after working with her on the campaign.
Wendy is also joining a household already filled with pets.
Swift is famously known for her three cats: Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson and Benjamin Button, meaning the couple now has four pets between them.
The dog's name was reportedly revealed after months of speculation, with fans suggesting that “Wendy” could have connections to both Kelce's favorite movie The Sandlot and Swift's own music.
