The countdown to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding was supposed to feel celebratory.
Instead, a different clock has started ticking.
Behind the scenes, according to sources familiar with the situation, Kelce is increasingly uneasy that a legal battle he has no control over could upend what was meant to be one of the most joyful moments of his life.
The issue isn’t logistics. It isn’t football. It’s the growing possibility that Swift could be pulled into Blake Lively’s explosive lawsuit as a witness.
And that possibility, insiders say, is weighing heavily on him.
The lawsuit itself is already messy. Blake Lively has accused It Ends With Us director Justin Baldoni of sexual harassment and of orchestrating a smear campaign against her.
Recently unsealed court documents revealed private text messages between Swift and Lively from 2024 — messages that were never meant to see daylight. In them, Swift reportedly used harsh language about Baldoni while supporting her then-close friend.
Those texts now live inside a legal record.
According to multiple reports, Swift could be called as a hostile witness for the defense if the case proceeds to trial, which is currently expected to begin in May — just weeks before the rumored June wedding date in Rhode Island.
That timing is what has reportedly shaken Kelce.
Sources describe him as “extremely stressed,” not because he doubts his relationship, but because he fears something deeply unfair: that Swift could be forced into a courtroom spotlight she never sought, at the exact moment their private life was supposed to take center stage.
The stress reportedly goes beyond nerves. Kelce is already navigating the emotional weight of what could be his final NFL chapter, a season that didn’t end the way he hoped. Adding the possibility of legal testimony — and all the media frenzy that would follow — has made the pressure feel relentless.
What complicates things further is the personal fallout.
Swift and Lively, once inseparable for nearly a decade, have not been seen together publicly since late 2024. Their friendship, which included Swift becoming godmother to Lively’s children, appears fractured.
Insiders say Swift was deeply uncomfortable being framed — even metaphorically — as a “protector” or “dragon” in a legal war she never agreed to fight.
That discomfort is central to Kelce’s concern.
According to sources, he has urged Swift to set firm boundaries and distance herself from the case where possible. Not to abandon anyone — but to protect herself. To protect them.
While those close to the couple emphasize that no decisions have been made and that cancellation is not inevitable, the mere possibility has introduced tension. Wedding plans, once joyful, now exist alongside legal calendars and contingency discussions.
Jason Kelce and Travis’ parents have reportedly tried to steady him, encouraging patience and reminding him to focus on what he can control. But the anxiety lingers.
This isn’t tabloid drama playing out loudly. It’s something quieter — a fear that external chaos could intrude on something deeply personal.
And that’s what makes the situation feel fragile.
Taylor Swift has spent years reclaiming control over her narrative, her work, and her boundaries. Being forced into a courtroom — not as a plaintiff, not as a defendant, but as collateral — would represent the opposite of that control.
For Travis Kelce, watching that possibility hover over their future has reportedly been exhausting.
Nothing has been canceled. Nothing has been confirmed. But the silence between those two dates — May’s trial and June’s wedding — feels louder by the day.
And the question hanging in the air isn’t about guilt or innocence.
It’s whether love can stay untouched when the outside world refuses to stay out of it.
