In a lively appearance on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," sports broadcasters Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson staked their claim as matchmakers for the high-profile relationship between pop superstar Taylor Swift and NFL player Travis Kelce. The duo recounted their role in bringing the couple together, following Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes' recent assertion that he also played a part.



Andrews, alongside her "Calm Down" podcast co-host Thompson, shared the story of how they encouraged Swift to date Kelce after he mentioned on his own podcast his desire to meet her following one of her concerts. “We just started talking about it on our podcast, saying, ‘Taylor, do this for America! Date him!’” Andrews said.


Thompson added that their early advocacy on their podcast was acknowledged by Kelce himself. He posted on social media, “I owe you guys big time,” after Swift and Kelce made their relationship public last fall.


However, Mahomes, not wanting to be left out of the matchmaking credit, recently claimed on the "Pat McAfee Show" that he played a crucial role as well. Mahomes said he invited Kelce to Swift’s Eras Tour concert in Kansas City in July 2023, where Kelce famously attempted to give Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number. Despite failing to meet her then, Mahomes encouraged Kelce to pursue Swift


The whirlwind romance between Kelce and Swift has been a topic of much public interest. Swift acknowledged the role of these influences in her December interview with Time, explaining how Kelce's public overtures led to them spending time together away from the public eye, allowing their relationship to blossom.



The couple has been seen supporting each other’s careers and recently enjoyed a romantic getaway to Lake Como, Italy. As the love story continues, both Andrews and Mahomes seem content to share in the credit for what has become one of the most talked-about celebrity relati onships.
