Kylie Kelce is speaking out after being called out by Swifties for not publicly congratulating Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce on their engagement.
Two weeks ago, Taylor and Travis nearly broke the Internet when they announced they were getting married and released their engagement pictures on social media.
Kylie did not congratulate Taylor and Travis on several episodes of her podcast, and Swifties wanted to know why.

On Thursday, Kylie explained why she’s been hesitant to congratulate Taylor and Travis on her podcast publicly.
“I do not discuss Taylor and Travis on this podcast because news outlets, tabloids and AI, quite frankly, like to post only the quotes that they grab from whatever I say in reference to them,” Kylie said. “And here’s where I think there’s a disconnect. People do not realize that you at home, you have your family, and in your family you might have a brother-in-law … you might have a soon-to-be sister-in-law, but you have a relationship personally with them that no one else is involved in.
“And so I don’t need to come out here and make statements when I already talked to them, you know what I’m saying? I don’t need you to clickbait my s—, I don’t need you to take my comments and try and dissect it, I think it goes without being said. … I’m so grateful we get to welcome Taylor into our family in a more official capacity, but it’s our private relationship.”

Kylie was applauded for her response on social media.
People need to stop getting involved in Taylor’s relationship with the Kelce’s. Not your family, not your business. https://t.co/LZXBh8QLYV
