“Travis felt so bad”: Taylor Swift shares hilarious story of Travis Kelce’s big mix-up at her ‘Eras’ Tour

Taylor Swift shared a funny story about Travis Kelce during her Eras Tour in London last year. Speaking on Late Night with Seth Meyers on October 8, 2025, Taylor said Travis accidentally confused Hugh Grant’s wife, Anna Eberstein, for his favorite movie director, Greta Gerwig. The mix-up happened at one of her London shows in June 2024, when Travis joined her on the road and spent time in the VIP section with many Hollywood stars. The Kansas City Chiefs star thought he had finally met the woman behind Barbie.

Later that night, Travis told Taylor that he had spoken to Greta and even joked, “I’m just Ken, too.” According to Taylor, he said she smiled politely but didn’t respond much. After the show, Travis told her, “Greta was chatting with Hugh Grant all night. They kind of seem like soulmates.”

Taylor said she found it sweet but also strange because she didn’t remember Greta being there. After doing a bit of online checking, she discovered that the woman Travis met was actually Anna Eberstein, the wife of actor Hugh Grant. Taylor said when she told Travis, he laughed and admitted, “Oh no, that’s not Greta!”
