Harrison Butker expressed hope that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce would “start a family” months before controversial ‘housewife’ comments



Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker shared his hopes for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s future together before making controversial comments about the “housewife.”

“I hope they get married and start a family,” he said EWTN’s “Detailed News.” in a resumed March interview.

The 28-year-old then happily reunited with the “humble” and “gracious” hitmaker at a New Year’s Eve party following his team’s win over the Cincinnati Bengals.

He recalled a brief conversation with Swift, 34, about soccer when she told him she was impressed that he could “kick the ball so far into the posts.”

“I was nervous about meeting Taylor Swift, it’s Taylor Swift,” he admitted. “But it was a great experience and I can’t say enough great things about her.”

While Butker isn’t a Swiftie, he said her 2022 song “Bejeweled” is his favorite because he’s a fan of the lyric “familiarity breeds contempt.”

Coincidentally, the NFL star quoted the same phrase during his speech at Benedictine College’s May 11 graduation ceremony.

During his inaugural speech, Butker spoke out against abortion, women in the workforce, dangerous gender ideologies and Pride Month.

“It’s safe to say that over the years I’ve developed a reputation for speaking my mind,” the three-time Super Bowl winner said at the beginning of his rant.

“Things like abortion, in vitro fertilization, surrogacy, euthanasia, as well as the growing support for degenerate cultural values ​​and media – all of this is a result of the pervasiveness of disorder,” the athlete continued, adding that Pride Month is part of the “deadly sins.”

He then sent a message to the graduates saying that their “most important title” should be “housewife.”

“Some of you may have a successful global career, but I would venture to guess that most of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world,” Butker added.

“I can say that my beautiful wife Isabelle would be the first to say that her life truly began when she began to live her calling as a wife and mother.”

“But it was a great experience and I can’t say enough great things about her,” the three-time Super Bowl winner added. AP

He also called out to the men in the crowd, telling them to “fight.” […] cultural castration” and “don’t apologize for your masculinity.”

At one point, Butker gave a nod to Swift’s lead, saying, “As my teammate’s girlfriend says, ‘Familiarity breeds contempt.'”

Swifties and Chiefs fans have joined forces on social media to condemn the footballer for his misogynistic comments.

“Harrison Butker, a guy I’ve never heard of before, did a great job of becoming one of the most hated people in North America in one 20-minute speech full of bigotry and misogyny. Fuck this guy. This is crazy,” one person wrote on X.

“One of the worst parts of this NFL player’s terrible speech is that he quoted a Taylor Swift song before telling women that they should stay home and serve their man’s career” – another he said.

Following Butker’s remarks, NFL Senior Vice President and Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer Jonathan Beane released a statement condemning his speech.

“Harrison Butker gave a speech on his own behalf. His views do not align with those of the NFL as an organization. The NFL remains committed to integration, which only strengthens our league.

Butker has not yet commented on the reaction.
