If you’ve been hearing whispers about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce potentially tying the knot with a house purchase, well, you can thank Jenna Bush Hager for that. The charming Today show co-host casually dropped a rumor during a Monday, October 16 episode, suggesting the power couple might be house hunting in Kansas City, Missouri. Now, whether this is fact or fiction, it’s certainly sparked a lot of conversation.
During the episode, Jenna, 41, mentioned to her co-hosts, “A friend from Kansas City texted me, there might be news they’re buying a house.” Now, let’s pause for a second. Jenna wasn’t just throwing this out there without context. She went on to clarify that her source wasn’t exactly a real estate insider, but hey, she knows people who know people. It’s the kind of thing that makes a great watercooler moment, doesn’t it?
But here’s the kicker: Jenna was quick to point out that NBC News hasn’t confirmed anything. “It’s just a rumor,” she added with a laugh, clarifying that her source, while well-connected, wasn’t exactly in the real estate game. “But she knows realtors,” Jenna explained, giving us all a little chuckle.

By the next day, Jenna was doubling down on her Taylor Swift fandom, calling the singer and Travis a “royal couple” and “America’s couple.” It’s easy to see why everyone’s rooting for them. However, Entertainment Tonight later reported that the house-buying rumors were, in fact, unfounded. Still, it’s clear that Jenna, like millions of fans around the world, is fully invested in this relationship.
Taylor Swift's Biggest Fan: Jenna Bush Hager
Now, Jenna isn’t just casually throwing Taylor Swift’s name around. She’s a full-blown Swiftie, and she’s not afraid to show it. Back in May, Jenna attended Taylor’s Eras tour in Foxborough, Massachusetts, and she didn’t go alone. She brought along her entire family—husband Henry Hager and their daughters, Mila and Poppy—for the ultimate Swiftie experience.
Sharing her excitement on Instagram, Jenna captioned a carousel of photos from the concert, “So fun being a family of Swifties!” It’s not just about the music for Jenna—it’s about the connection, the shared memories, and the joy that Taylor brings to her life and her family.
In the days leading up to the concert, Jenna shared her preparation process with her Today co-host, Hoda Kotb. “We made the actual playlist from her set,” Jenna revealed, “although there are a few mystery songs somewhere in there.” She went on to explain that she was determined to avoid traffic by knowing exactly when to leave, but more importantly, she and her kids had been listening to Taylor’s music everywhere they went. “It’s been a great way to bond,” she added, smiling.

Reba McEntire Joins the Conversation
Jenna isn’t the only one chiming in on Taylor and Travis’ relationship. Country music legend Reba McEntire shared her own take on the couple during an interview with TODAY.com on October 11. Reba admitted she was “devastated” to learn about their romance, not because she disliked Taylor, but because she had a little crush of her own on Travis.
“Oh, my gosh, I am so mad at her because I had a crush on him,” Reba joked, adding a touch of humor to the situation. Despite her playful complaints, Reba is happily coupled with her boyfriend, Rex Linn, and they both enjoy watching Kansas City Chiefs games together. “We were watching him play because I love the Chiefs and I love Patrick [Mahomes], and I’d say, ‘Oh, he’s so cute. Oh, he’s so cute,’” Reba recalled, laughing at her own enthusiasm.

When Travis and Taylor started dating, Rex teased Reba about losing her “boyfriend.” Reba’s response? “Rub it in,” she quipped, showing that she can take a joke—and still root for Taylor and Travis’ happiness.
