Once more, the celebrity romance grapevine is abuzz, this time focusing on Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and pop sensation Taylor Swift.
However, rather than their passionate affair taking center stage, attention has turned to a dubious document suggesting an end date for their relationship—specifically September 28.
This purported leaked contract from Full Scope PR, a Los Angeles-based firm, outlines a planned breakup and even includes a strategy for managing media repercussions.
This story was reported by Fox News.
The document first surfaced on Reddit, of all places, and quickly spread like wildfire across social media.
It claims to outline three key messaging points: “Respect and Privacy,” “Professional Focus,” and “Personal Growth.”
Oh, and just in case the breakup doesn’t go smoothly, the PR firm supposedly already has a statement ready for major outlets: “Travis and Taylor have decided to part ways after careful consideration. They both value and respect each other’s personal lives and appreciate your respect for privacy during this time.”
Of course, this “statement” would be shared with all the usual suspects in the media to ensure the story reaches far and wide.

Kelce’s representatives are quickly refuting the entire claim, dismissing the document as completely fabricated and untrue.
“We have engaged our legal team to initiate proceedings against the individuals or entities responsible for the unlawful and injurious forgery of documents,” Full Scope added, probably hoping this would shut down the gossip mill. The Daily Mail reports that a spokesperson for Full Scope PR vehemently denied any involvement in creating or disseminating such a document.
As of now, there has been no response from Kelce’s agents or his management team to requests for comment. Similarly, Swift’s camp has chosen to remain conspicuously silent.
Let’s face it—this wouldn’t be the first instance where a celebrity couple’s relationship appears more about business than genuine affection. In fact, Kelce’s own publicist, Jack Ketosyan, openly acknowledged during a 2019 podcast that orchestrating relationships for publicity is a common practice in Hollywood.
Whether it’s to promote an album, divert attention from negative publicity, or create buzz for a lackluster movie, these “showmances” are straight out of the PR playbook. And let’s not pretend that Taylor Swift, a master at manipulating media, is above such tactics—if you believe otherwise, I have some prime beachfront property in Kansas to sell you.
Ketosyan even shared tips on identifying fake relationships: when a lesser-known star suddenly catapults to fame simply by associating with a bigger name, it’s time to be skeptical.
Hollywood has long treated relationships as casting decisions. Ketosyan even disclosed an example involving a minor female star who signed a one-year contract to date a male actor whose film was failing. After a whirlwind “romance,” she became widely recognized and conveniently “broke up” right after the press tour concluded.
This isn’t an isolated case. Brody Jenner admitted that his relationship with Lauren Conrad on The Hills was entirely staged for the cameras.
Kim Kardashian experienced significant career advancement after being linked to Nick Lachey, who later suggested that the whole affair was contrived to put her in the spotlight.
And let’s not overlook Jackass star Steve-O, who candidly admitted that his fling with Nicole Richie was nothing more than a publicity stunt.
Even YouTube sensation Jake Paul partook in this trend by orchestrating not just one but two fake weddings for views.
Now, Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are facing accusations of following this worn-out script. The timing raises suspicion: Swift is headlining her extensive “Eras Tour,” and Kelce is gearing up for the 2024 NFL season kickoff.
Suddenly, the pop icon and the football standout are dominating headlines as the most talked-about couple globally. It all seems too convenient, doesn’t it? Whether this romance is genuine or just another PR maneuver, it’s difficult to ignore the whiff of manufactured drama.
