Adam Sander left Travis Kelce in stitches after telling the Kansas City Chiefs star how crazy his family went when he first started dating Taylor Swift.

Sandler appeared as a special guest on Kelce’s New Heights podcast this week after recently confirming they are set to work together on Happy Gilmore 2.

The NFL legend is poised to enjoy a cameo role in the sequel to the hit 1996 movie, having previously thrown his name in the hat to play any part possible in it.

With filming due to commence in the coming weeks, Kelce invited Sandler on to New Heights to discuss Happy Gilmore along with a range of other topics.

And one of them, of course, was Swift.

Sander told a hilarious story about how much the pop sensation means to his family on the podcast, which drew huge laughter from Travis and his brother Jason.

The acting icon told Kelce about his romance with Swift: ‘You guys being together, I mean… when you guys first started dating, my god was my family like, “Yes! Look how good they are together, he’s a gentleman! And she’s having so much fun with him!”

‘Like any time Taylor is laughing with you, my whole f***ing family is like high-fiving.’

Despite being one of the most famous actors on the planet, Sandler has previously admitted that he gets nervous around Swift after naming her as one of the only celebrities he’s truly star-struck by.

That revelation was brought up during his appearance on New Heights, and he explained: ‘I do get nervous around Taylor Swift because I don’t want to f***ing blow it for my kids and say something stupid,’ he said.

‘So, I’m just like, “S*** she means so much to my f***ing house I better say the right thing!”‘

Swift’s legion of diehard fans have not tired of speculating about Kelce getting down on one knee and popping the question to their beloved songstress.

On the eve of the new season, NFL insider Adam Schefter dropped a major hint that Travis may well have purchased an engagement ring just over a year since his romance with Taylor began.

Schefter – one of the most reputable reporters in the sport – jokingly interrogated ESPN host Laura Rutledge when she reacted to news about Kelce buying a racehorse with a Swift-themed name by quipping that he is yet to buy a ring.

‘Wait, I have a question,’ he said. ‘Laura, how do you know that Travis Kelce didn’t buy an engagement ring?’

Rutledge replied: ‘I don’t know. Do you know? Are you gonna break some big news here?’

Scheftler paused while looking very coy before adding: ‘I’m just saying that you said he didn’t buy an engagement ring, and I’m wondering how you have that information.’

Two-time NFL champion Booger McFarland then said: ‘Whoah, whoah, whoah… the awkward silence right there speaks volumes. Schefty do you know something?

‘America wants to know.’

But Schefter responded: ‘All I did was ask a question about how Laura knew he hasn’t bought an engagement ring. That’s all I was doing.’
