Taylor Swift may soon be 'Mrs. Taylor Swift-Kelce' if her fiance Travis Kelce's reaction to a new social media post is anything to go by.

The Chiefs tight end, 36, dropped a strong hint that he and Taylor will be changing their last names once they tie the knot this summer.

Travis "liked" a video shared on Instagram by the Bussin With the Boys podcast, in which the hosts discussed the possibility of either Travis or Taylor changing their surname after their wedding.

Among the ideas were "Travis Swift," because Taylor is "way more globally famous" than the NFL star, but one guest noted that "Taylor Kelce" also had a nice ring to it.

It was then agreed that Taylor and Travis should hyphenate their last names to "Swift-Kelce." "No, you gotta go Swift-Kelce — Travis Swift-Kelce," they said.

Travis appeared to agree, and his liking of the post didn't go unnoticed by fans, who loved his reaction.

Travis hinted he and Taylor will change their last names

Last month, it was claimed that Taylor is set to walk down the aisle on July 3. The venue is yet to be disclosed, although it is thought that Taylor and Travis will marry in an arena or museum-like space to accommodate a large guest list. 

According to the Daily Mail, the couple's save-the-date missives were sent with a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), which had to be signed when guests sent back their RSVPs.   

The news came after many fans believed Taylor and Travis would marry in Rhode Island on June 13, either at her $17 million mansion or nearby at the Ocean House resort in Watch Hill.

Tara Guérard, the venue's wedding planner, refuted this rumor in an Instagram comment. "I am the wedding planner for June 13th at the Ocean House in Rhode Island! Sorry to let you all know, Taylor is not my bride this weekend! Boo! Kindest, @taraguerard," she wrote. 

The lovebirds got engaged in August 2025, with Travis popping the question in his backyard in Kansas City with a dazzling, brilliant-cut old mine diamond ring. Taylor shared insight into her wedding plans on The Graham Norton Show in 2025, revealing that she wanted a large guest list to accommodate all of their friends and family.

"It's going to be fun to plan, because I think the only stressful weddings are the ones where you have a small amount of people and people are on the bubble – and you have to evaluate or assess your relationship with them to see if they should be there," she explained. 

"I'm not gonna do that. Anyone I've ever talked to [is getting an invitation]," she quipped.
