Travis Kelce Reportedly Snubs ESPY Awards, Misses Chance to Meet Prince Harry
Travis Kelce’s decision to skip the ESPY Awards, where he could have met Prince Harry, has left fans buzzing with speculation. Kelce, a star player for the Kansas City Chiefs, was reportedly invited to the event but chose not to attend, missing out on a potential encounter with the royal couple, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
While Kelce’s teammate Patrick Mahomes also opted out of the awards show, he still managed to scoop the Best Athlete in Men’s Sports accolade. The absence of both players left head coach Andy Reid to accept any awards on behalf of the team.
Kelce’s decision not to attend the ESPYs comes after a recent encounter with Prince William at a Taylor Swift concert in London. Kelce described the prince as “the coolest mother ——” on his podcast, recounting their interaction with fondness.
Despite missing out on meeting Prince Harry at the ESPY Awards, Kelce received a shout-out during the ceremony. Host Serena Williams quipped about the year’s sports highlights, mentioning Kelce in the mix with Taylor Swift’s boyfriend and Mahomes’ Super Bowl win.
While fans speculated about a potential meet-up between Kelce and Prince Harry, it seems the two stars never crossed paths at the event. Nevertheless, Kelce’s decision to skip the awards show has sparked curiosity and headlines, leaving fans wondering about the potential royal encounter that could have been.
