Outlander’s Sam Heughan has declared that Taylor Swift should ‘forget’ her Kansas City Chiefs boyfriend Travis Kelce.
The American football team suffered a heavy Super Bowl defeat last night with Swift also receiving a chorus of boos from the crowds when her face appeared on the big screen as she supported Travis during the game.
However, Sam could not feel any more different towards the American popstar, compared to the ruthless crowds at Caesars Superdome last night, as he has publicly confessed his desire for her to leave Kelce behind and ‘fall’ for him instead.
The 44-year-old appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last month to discuss the upcoming Outlander season 8 finale, in which he stars as Jamie Fraser.
However, a certain concert he attended in Edinburgh last year also came up in conversation between the actor and the chat show host.
Sam went to see Taylor on her Eras Tour at Murrayfield Stadium last year when she made a three-night stop in Edinburgh last year.
Jimmy showed the audience an Instagram video that Sam had shared before Taylor’s show, which showed him dressed as his Outlander character.
In the amusing clip, Sam expressed his beliefs that Taylor would “fall” for him once she saw him in the crowd in Edinburgh.
He said: “She obviously doesn’t know this, but when she comes to Scotland, and she sees me in the audience she’s going to forget all about… him and fall for a man in a ginger wig.”
As the camera turned back to Sam and Jimmy in the studio, the Scots actor couldn’t hide his smile as he cheekily added: “I still have the wig, Taylor, if you’re watching.”
However, Sam may be waiting a while because it seems Taylor is still very loved up with her NFL beau Travis Kelce whose Kansas City Chiefs team suffered a mighty defeat at the Super Bowl last night.
Their loss comes just days after Swift was snubbed at the 2025 Grammy Awards last weekend after being nominated for six different categories and not winning any of them to go beside her extensive 14 Grammy Award collection.
A source told the Daily Mail: “After Taylor being snubbed for a Grammy and Travis losing the biggest game of the year, it’s been a tough week for them.”
