‘Doomed from the start’: Rumoured Swift-Kelce wedding is a ‘perfect recipe’ for heartbreak
Writer and Comedian Michael Loftus breaks down the rumours surrounding Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's multi-million-dollar Madison Square Garden wedding. “I think this is the perfect recipe to doom your relationship. Like Taylor Swift, I feel bad for Kelce over here; he’s going to have his heart broken,” Mr Loftus told Sky News host James Morrow. “She has to break his heart; that’s how she writes records. She finds guys, she breaks their heart, and then she acts like she’s the one who got dumped. “This is a horrible affair, like, she’s going to make the entire city of New York not happy with her … this thing is doomed.”
