Travis Kelce is not happy with speculation his and Taylor Swift’s fairytale romance might not be so special after all.

A contract posted on various forums online purported to show that the love story might actually have been a year-long production put on by the two lovers’ PR teams.

After it went viral, Kelce’s representatives were forced to deny that the tight end and Swift have a scheduled break-up coming later this month after a “contract” was leaked with his PR company’s header. Kelce’s management said the contract was fake.

The “contract” appears to be written by PR firm Full Scope, and details plans and an exact date for Kelce’s break-up with Swift: September 28.

Paperwork shows an alleged plan to release a statement three days after the supposed break-up to “allow the initial media frenzy to settle and ensure clarity.”

The announcement would allegedly be “gracious, respectful, and stress mutual respect.”

Below are some examples of the plans detailed in the leaked “contract”:

“Example: Travis and Taylor have decided to part ways after careful consideration,” the “contract” reads.

“They both value and respect each other’s personal lives and appreciate your respect for privacy during this time.

“They are both committed to their careers and personal growth. They remain friends and wish each other the best.”

The “contract” stated that the break-up announcement would focus on Kelce growing as a person, and the split being a “natural part of life.”

Other focuses included Kelce’s commitment to his NFL career and other sports ventures.

The press release would be sent to all major press outlets for “broad coverage.”

While the paperwork carried the name of Kelce’s PR firm, his representatives were quick to shut it down as a false document.

Full Scope released a statement saying they were “entirely false and fabricated and were not created, issued or authorised by this agency.”

Kelce’s team has lawyered up to combat the false documents.

“We have engaged our legal team to initiate proceedings against the individuals or entities responsible for the unlawful and injurious forgery of documents,” they told Daily Mail.

The “contract“ was first shared on Reddit, and users on the social media site weren’t completely convinced about its authenticity.

Many shared that the document didn’t look professional, with one saying it “reads like a high school assignment.”

Others claimed that AI could have easily been used to write a fake ”contract” for Kelce and Swift’s split.

It is worth pointing out that Kelce’s representative, Jack Ketosyan, has admitted to putting together “showmances” in the past.

He said that the fake celebrity relationships are constructed to pull attention away from a potential flop of a project or to promote something else.

“It’s to be able to sell the hype of it – whether a concert, album… or getting people to go to see the movie, it all about the hype at the moment,” he said on Mamamia’s The Quicky podcast back in 2019.

There is no reporting to suggest that Ketosyan has any connection to the fake ”contract”, though.

Seeing as both Kelce and Swift are both very successful and haven’t had any recent flops, as well as Kelce’s team denying the authenticity of the “contract”, it is likely safe to say that they won’t be breaking up anytime soon.

However, keep your eyes peeled on September 28 just in case Kelce has some big break-up news to share with the world.
