Travis Kelce seemed well-prepped by his PR team on how to address the Harrison Butker situation. While he skillfully navigated the topic without directly praising or condemning Butker, his response still sparked controversy, particularly with Jason Whitlock. The outspoken journalist took issue with Kelce’s diplomatic stance, considering it overly critical despite Kelce’s attempts to stay neutral.
In his latest YouTube video, Whitlock expressed his frustration with Kelce’s carefully worded comments. He labeled Kelce a “knucklehead” and accused him of lacking self-awareness. Whitlock harshly criticized the tight end, stating:
Travis Kelce disagrees with most of Harrison Butker’s controversial speech
“Travis Kelce said a whole lot of nothing there because he virtually has no self-awareness. He thinks that he’s here and he’s famous and he’s rich and he’s super successful because both of his parents worked outside the home or you know, he doesn’t recognize because Travis Kelce is a knucklehead.”
Whitlock argued that Kelce’s success was solely due to his physical attributes, suggesting that without his “genetic lottery” win, Kelce wouldn’t have achieved his current status. He dismissed Kelce as “dumb” and unremarkable, attributing his success to his height and build rather than his skills or intelligence.

The source of Whitlock’s anger was Kelce’s perceived attempt to appease everyone with his statement. Kelce distanced himself from Butker’s views, noting they were not his own but refrained from outright condemning Butker’s religious stance. This “distancing” particularly irked Whitlock, who felt Kelce was pandering to social media rather than expressing genuine beliefs.
Whitlock accused Kelce of taking Butker “out of context,”: “Now he gets to pretend like he has some sort of mature sophisticated perspective on the world [but] he does not… because of the social media pressure and he’s thinking about how these words will land on social media, [so] he has to take Harrison Butker out of context.”

Meanwhile, Jason Kelce had a more straightforward stance on Butker’s comments about motherhood. Butker’s assertion that a woman’s “most important title” should be “homemaker” sparked debate, especially given its context at a graduation ceremony.
However, Jason focused on the positive aspects of Butker’s message, particularly the importance of mothers in shaping families. He acknowledged not agreeing with everything Butker said but emphasized the value in discerning what resonates from any speech.

Body language expert Blanca Cobb shared her insights on the couple’s chemistry with The Sun.
These two want to be next to each other,” Cobb told the outlet, analysing photos of the couple strolling arm-in-arm around Lake Como.
“Their body language shows a clear physical and emotional bond,” Cobb noted, pointing out the natural inclination for closeness displayed by
the pair. “They’re comfortable with each other, and it’s evident in the way they interact,” she added, further fueling rumours of a blossoming relationship between the pop star and NFL player.
Highlighting a specific image, Cobb explained, “With couples, you want an emotional connectedness and a physical connectedness. Her left shoulder is right underneath his right armpit. They’re seamed at the side. That’s a really good sign.”
She said that this alignment signifies a high level of comfort and affection shared by both parties.
Further examining their posture, the expert described Kelce’s casual but intimate gesture: “He has his arm draped casually across her back,
with his right hand on her shoulder. And then she’s grasping his hand that’s lying on her shoulder. That’s good.” She pointed out that this continuous physical contact shows a mutual desire to stay connected. “When you love somebody and you’re feeling that love in the moment,
you find ways to touch,” Cobb continued.
“Their bodies are pretty much joined at the side as they’re walking.”
