When Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce confirmed they were dating, the singer’s fans were convinced she had found The One.
In fact, it’s a love story that could actually be a Hollywood movie – the pop star and the sports man who fell in love as the world watched.
But Mr Kelce’s representatives were forced to deny that they have plans to split later this month after a document written on the headed paper of his US PR company was spread online.
WHAT THE PAPERWORK SAYS
The paperwork which appears to have been created by Los Angeles-based firm Full Scope, reveals a strategy to make their split, and says the date for an announcement is September 28.
It also outlines a supposed plan to release an official statement at the end of this month – three days ‘post-break up’ to ‘allow the initial media frenzy to settle and ensure clarity’.
It adds that the announcement will be ‘gracious, respectful and stress mutual respect.
IS TRAVIS KELCE’S ROMANCE WITH TAYLOR SWIFT A SHAM?
Laying out what the statement would say, they write: ‘Example: 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.
‘They are both committed to their careers and personal growth. They remain friends and wish each other the best.’
The paperwork also states that the announcement would focus on Mr Kelce’s ‘personal growth’ by framing the breakup as a ‘natural part of life.’ It also will highlight his commitment to his career and his ongoing achievements in the sports industry.’
They also plan to send it to major media outlets with a press release to ensure ‘broad coverage.’

DISCLAIMER
However, Tuesday’s night, a spokesman for Full Scope insisted that they were ‘entirely false and fabricated and were not created, issued or authorised by this agency’.
The representative also said they have called in lawyers – though they are not expected to find the culprit.
‘We have engaged our legal team to initiate proceedings against the individuals or entities responsible for the unlawful and injurious forgery of documents,’ they said.
WHAT FANS THINK
Not all fans believe the statement – which was first shared on Reddit.
One follower of the social media platform pointed out that it ‘reads like a high school assignment’ while another said it appeared to look like it had been created by ‘chat gtp.’
Meanwhile, a spokeswoman for Ms Swift didn’t respond when asked if she wanted to comment on the split.
Mr Kelce is represented at the US firm by Jack Ketosyan and Pia Malihi.
Mr Ketsoyan has admitted to putting together ‘showmances’ — where celebrities are set up for publicity — before.
Featuring in an Australian podcast for Mamamia’s The Quicky in 2019, Mr Ketsoyan said the fake romances are generally put together if one has a film or something to promote or to distract from unappealing publicity like a project flop.
